You, 4 teammates, and a hostage, are trapped in one room, surrounded by 5 enemies that have endless ways to get in and steal the hostage. You know they are coming in, but you never know when, where, or how they will get in. Once they’re in all you can see is dust and debris from explosions and other gunshots. You have to shoot at the enemies that are jumping in from the ceiling, blowing up walls, or even coming in through the main doorway. You get a sudden rush when you see a grenade land right next to you only have seconds to run away from it all while hoping you don’t get shot in the process. You can feel that sudden burst of adrenaline all from playing Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege.
So we get many things in the game. And like Black Ops 2 was a shooting game. It was the #1 game back then. But Fortnite came out and took over all the games. I think the old game back then were better because they look nice and there are a lot of fun.

At the end of the game, I see Konrad painting dead people with the woman holding her child at the center of it. He says 47 innocent people were killed because of his actions and that reports of his survival were “greatly exaggerated. My player has flashbacks about the worst experiences he experienced. My soldiers saw me react to outlandish hallucinations that attempted to make me be the “hero” and realign myself morally. Understanding that this game was fueled by my hallucinations was very upsetting. It made me question whether Spec Ops could be considered a game or art, since my enjoyment decreased. I came to the conclusion that it should be considered a game and art because there were high levels of creativity in the gameplay, storyline, and characters. Each development was well-thought out and the player had an integral role in the

In Bobbie Ann Mason’s Shiloh there are only a handful of characters. She tells the story of a husband (Leroy) and wife (Norma Jean) and their troubled marriage. Mason’s tale is narrated through the eyes of Leroy. This first person narrative and limited point of view masks Norma Jean’s need for, and thoughts of independence. Additionally, the story uses the symbols of a log cabin, a dust ruffle, and the title Shiloh to reinforce Norma Jean and Leroy’s dysfunctionality.
Most people that are against video games dont like them because they believe virtual shooting can translate in to real life shooting. Gary Slutkin is the founder of an organization that has successfully lowered gun violence in parts of Baltimore and Chicago, “Slutkin doesn’t think that virtual violence is a cause in itself, but neither does he think it’s harmless. Instead, he thinks the games make people more susceptible to becoming violent.” (Keim). This doesn't mean you should be scared of someone for playing Call Of Duty but it also doesn't mean the game comes without consequences. Rowell Huesmann, A psychologist says:
Video games have risen in popularity in America the past couple decades where popular gaming franchises influence or reflect modern American culture. Many video game franchises are popular but one franchise that has stood out in video game media is Assassin's Creed. Assassin's Creed is a franchise that consists of video games, spinoffs, comics, graphic novels, animated films, figurines, weapon replicas, clothing, and other merchandise. Only focusing on the video game branch of the franchise, the series began in 2007 with its first installment released. The franchise was planned out as a spin-off for the Prince of Persia series but developed into their own franchise. Currently there are seven main games in the franchise all of which have historical fiction, action-adventure, and stealth genres. The games feature dense narratives, historical buildings with the ability to climb freely on them, and the iconic hidden blade. Since the first game, roughly around 57 million copies of the franchise were sold world wide (“About Ubisoft”). Compared to other popular franchises such as Grant Theft Auto, that sold 150 million, and Halo, that sold 50 million, Assassin's Creed franchise has its fair share of popularity. Not focusing on only statistics, go to any video game convention and you would most likely see people dressed up as assassins or see merchandise of the franchise. So in video game culture now Assassin's Creed seems fairly popular. Considering how popular Assassin's Creed is in America, the game has aspects that reflect common ideas, morals, and traits that are present in American culture as well as other popular American media.

I’m the type of guy that would go out and buy a Call of Duty game, pop it open and gather all my friends and jump right into it. Call of Duty is one of the most popular games out and many people love to play. It is competitive, it has online play, and you can also create a clan or group to play against other people around the world online. Call of Duty dates back to 2003 and really wasn’t popular then because it’s all about killing your enemy. Many parents didn’t want their child to play the game. Growing up, I didn’t know much about video games, so I wasn’t really into them until I started playing Call of Duty. Not only does it have military based features, it also has zombies and/or aliens features as well.
