Summary:
The thing that every single one of these games has in common is that without a rule based system implanted into them they would not be enjoyable and would not work as games. Some of these games will play off you're emotions, For example if you win in Muay Thai you feel a sense of achievement if you win, However if you loose you either can feel like you might quit or you want to practice more to achieve more. These feelings can also be achieved from a Video Game for example in a story game once you complete a level you feel good and keep wanting to play the game. Games are designed to play on you're emotions and manipulate them to make you relate to the characters, If a game fails to do this it will most likely not be enjoyable to the consumer.

Naughty Dog use the PEGI age rating board in the UK and Europe, and the ESRB in America.
Throughout my life I have been exposed to video games. This
is shown in the amount of consoles I have owned/played. One of the reasons I
have played so many video games is due to my father being a big fan of video
games as he grew up writing games before you could go and buy them when he was
younger on old computers. A large majority of my friends also grew up playing
video games and we would go round each others houses playing games together.
The majority of the older devices were not my own consoles however the majority
of the newer devices have been my own as I no longer am limited to what my dad
would play on the playstation. I have owned an almost equal amount of handheld
consoles to home consoles as growing up I was limited to playing games aimed at
younger people, which would normally be released on handheld consoles. Around
the time of the playstation 3 was when I would say I became an even bigger fan
of gaming due to my father working at Playstation and bringing home games which
I wouldn't usually pick out. I also was able to play games which had a more
mature rating due to getting older.I am also now more interested around what is
coming out, and gaming culture in general as I am now older and have more
access to articles and sites about video games. Social media also plays a big
aspect in what I play and who with as it helps me see what new games are coming
out and it helps me communicate with friends and tell them when to come on the
playstation. I now play more games on my phone than I used to due to the time
spent commuting to college and not having much else to do on the train.
