As
much as I love the gaming industry and the wonderful stories it tells us I
can’t help but feel that for the most part the industry kind of hates itself.
There’s this contempt it has for itself, not just the journalists, but the
fans, developers and publishers as well. For as much as gaming has grown and
become a part of today’s culture and for as much as the lovers and workers of
the medium hate being derided by others who hail from more respected mediums,
the people of the industry seem to enjoy joining in their voice and treating
games as immature little products that quite haven’t yet reached the levels of
integrity that film and literature have.
