A Blogger's Reflection


 Now I wanted to add a short post to completely reflect on this blog, and not only on reflect on the questions the blog creates, but on the feelings of the blog itself.
 Starting with literal questions relating to the blog, how do you feel about the evidence that is provided for using games in other areas? Honestly, people have heard about games trying to be used for other purposes but are never given specific examples. To find those specific examples one must search vigorously to find them.  Of course this may be like saying why don’t people talk about a horrible movie that came out.  The next question that has made me think about this whole blog is how long these ideas like Foldit will or neurotherapy will last. It brings up the thought, have these examples of gamificated gold mines struck it rich, in the sense that it is helpful by social standards, by chance or will people continue to spread great ideas through video games? Well, what do you think?
 Guaranteed, researching this blog has made me have an inquisitive feeling about what can video games do to help in any circumstance. I’ve thought of precise surgery cutting with the use of game like technology to control the machinery (I have no idea if this exists or even if it can exist). What can you come up with?
 This blog has taken me some different places, and I must say this project has gone smoothly so far. Finding resources for driving simulations have been hard to find, but I have also discovered that many people have begun to ask questions on how video games will help us progress through our future. At this moment from what I have been writing, whether or not my essential question is positively or negatively answered, I do believe video games will be here stay and for the better not the worse.
Let's keep playing together
