My Gaming Habits


What types of games do you enjoy playing? 
What are the titles? Ummmmm , simple games like Pacman , Tetris , Angry Birds , Bloxors , Just Dance , Guitar Hero , & occasionally Call of Duty with my little brother . ( Yes , I suck at it       -_____- }
When did you begin playing games, on what type of game system?  I only got into games because of my little brother , he's a total game freak . I suppose it started on The Xbox .
Do your parents/guardians limit the amount of time you are allowed to play games? My mom tries to limit the amount of time , because she says we could be doing something more productive , blah , blah , blah . 
Do you think it is possible to get completely addicted to playing video games? Why or why not? Certainly , I think that video games are definitely easy to get addicted to . Simply because , the game could be challenging and fun to play .

Gamefication , Game Design , & Game Mechanics

In Globoloria , I learn how to better understand Flash , I learn how to work better with people and how to make a more educational game . During the past two and a half years , I have learned new skills & even bettered some skills . I have learned flash drawing skills , problem solving skills , cooperation skills , presentation skills , and independence skills . These skills can prepare me for a successful academic future by helping to prepare me to work well with others , how to solve issues on my own , how to help others , how to better start and accomplish things . The problem solving skills , cooperation skills & presentation skills , appeal to interviewers , because they see maturity and potential .
The difference between Gamification , Game Mechanics , and Game Design :
Game Design is referred to as " Skeletal Framework " , where everything hangs off of . 
Game Design is basically the process which includes the brainstorming & creating of the rules and contents of the game .
Game Mechanics is the function of the actual game . So , what happens to the gamer's character through out the game .
Gameification is adding NEW things to the game . Such as point score , award badges , etc .
