What is a Video Game?
        A video game is a game played by electronically manipulating images produced by a computer program on a television or other display screen. But what does that mean? In layman's terms it is any game that is played that was created by some type of computer. This could mean a lot of different things. One example of a video game is a PlayStation game. PlayStation games are made by a

massive team of computer programs. They are made by computers for computer like systems. You cannot play a PlayStation game without having an actual PlayStation gaming system. Another example of a video game would be computer games. These games were created by computers, for computers. These games cannot be played without a computer. Video games have grown with the advancement of technology, thus becoming a worldwide market for people of all ages. Video Games can be realistic or even unrealistic science fiction. Video games can serve many purposes such as entertainment, creativity, learning, and even stress relievers.
         One of the video games that we discussed in class was, "I Expect You To Die."In this game you are a spy trying to catch a cartoon evil villain. The first scene that comes up, you are stuck in a car and

need to figure out how to escape the car. It is a virtual reality game so it allows the user to feel as if they are actually inside the car. This feature expresses realistic qualities that made into a game setting for entertainment. The player is able to use either a keyboard or virtual reality controllers to interact with the game. The game can be played on a PlayStation 4 that has virtual reality compatibility. This is a video game because of many different reasons. "I Expect You To Die" is interactive with the players. Without interaction, nothing could be completed.  "I Expect You To Die" is also video game because it is played with some type of electronic device. The images on the screen are electronically manipulated so they seem real. This game is also played on either a television screen or a computer screen.
