Well if you spent time with any self-proclaimed "gamers" in the past week I bet you that "Call of Duty: Black Ops" was topic #1 for conversation. And a few weeks before that it was "Halo 4" and a few weeks before that it was... oh I don't even remember now because that's how little I care. But it seems like its been "go-time" for video games releases this month - or this fall - or maybe this year - or has it always been this way? I can't remember a time when there wasn't "the next big game" coming out. That may have to do with my generation or the company I keep, but apparently Fruzsina Eordogh has noticed the same thing. In an article she penned this week on ReadWriteWeb, she discusses that this has been the norm for over 20 years now and I don't see the situation changing anytime soon. As long as video game creators are still cranking out games, younger generations will continue to be fascinated by them, and older generations will continue to be perplexed by them. The only thing that may change is which group YOU belong to!
