Blog Post 10: Gamer Manifesto

@brandonluc01

I love gaming…I love walk off home runs and head shots. I love drifting a turn at 120 mph, and boss battles with a 5 hundred foot tall Greek god who may or may not be your real father. Gaming is having a ridiculously large high definition television in a tiny one bedroom apartment…staying up until 3 am to win a trophy that isn’t real. And girls of gaming know that the way to a man’s heart is through a critical melee attack. Anyone can criticize what we do, what we see as accomplishments, and what we deem worthy of our time but it doesn’t matter because gaming is our passion, our creativity, and reality. One can argue that gaming is ridiculous because it is not real nor is it really an art that requires creativity, but to them I quote Pablo Picasso “Everything you can imagine is real.” In the world of gaming anything is possible and nothing is improbable. Gaming is a wonderful world without boundaries and limits…anything is possible.  It gives anyone a chance to excel, to become someone who was formerly no one.

In our gaming world there are no qualifications to being a gamer…no discrimination. Sure some gamers are called “newbies” or ‘feeders,” but everyone in the gaming world is acknowledged as a gamer, and nothing else matters. The color of your skin, your beliefs, and your gender is insignificant. All that matters is the creativity one brings to the gaming world by the movement of their joysticks or the clicking of a mouse. I love gaming…we love gaming.
