Gamer Views is an article which is made and posted on Another Code Labs every few weeks. The article desifers the boundaries between gamers and game makers. As well as trying to put them closer together.
The blind eye is a gamers view which is seen so much. Mostly it is shown as fan boy-ism. Every gamer has a bit of fan boy-ism in them. No matter how much they say they are not fan boys of any company or game. They always seem to have a week spot for a certain company or developer. Sometimes this is just preference. But most of the time its almost a love, hate relationship with gamers and company’s.
Fan boy-ism is defined by most as someone who’s preference is shadowed by a blind experience with a company. In other words, someone who just has the one company or series of games in there collection.
Now some people may think this is just a small number of people. But in real life, the amount of people who are shadowed by there favorite company or are to reluctant to use other company’s products. This happens a lot in the gaming inderstry. People get blind of another company and don’t want to experience what others have to offer.
Basicly the down sides of been a fan boy is you don’t experience what others have to offer.
Other types of blindness to company’s mostly lie in catergrys of fan boy-ism. But there are different ranges of them. Kinda like the chilly chart. Chilly can be very very hot, or so soft its untestable.
It may not be fan boy-ism but some people have never touched some company’s games. Some titles such as Spliter Cell which Ubi soft produces. A few people I have talked to have mentioned that some Ubisoft franchise will be the first times they buy them. They are getting them on the Wii, but in most cases they have appeared on the GC as well, so it seems that if a developer supports it gets less and less basis fan boys towards their company.
I also suposse most don’t under stand how much it takes to develop a game. Oh well.
