It’s all about numbers and I like it! Someone up for Bingo?

§ August 27th, 2009 § Filed under ideas § Tagged , , , , , § No Comments

Thank god they invented the Internet! You see, lately I’ve been looking for a simple and mindless game to keep me distracted, and I ended up settling for bingo. I used to dislike this game for being so straightforward and un-strategic, but recently I happened to get into it and I kind of liked it. And it turns out it’s actually a fun way to spend some time, so I started considering the chance of going out to an actual Bingo night, rather than just playing from the Internet. Well, that was until I came across the following video:

After watching this, I think I’ll settle for playing my bingo on the Internet, from the comfort of my own home! I have some friends who have also been getting adepts to those bingo sites, and soon enough we may start getting together for some live-action in-house Bingo. In the meanwhile, I think I’ll just stick to those free bingo websites, thank you very much. There’s something quite soothing about keeping and eye on those Bingo cards and hoping for the right numbers to come by. And it actually gets thrilling when you’re about to succeed filling up a card! Oh my, does this mean that I’m getting old, this sudden enjoyment of Bingo? Will I ever become one of those people in the video up there?

Will videogames eventually replace the movies?

Amazing, just amazing. I mean, take a look at this CGI video from the upcoming videogame “Assassin’s Creed II”; notice the pacing, the interplay of lights and shadows, and the subtle characterization. In my opinion, this is a much more interesting video (from a cinematic perspective) than much of the actual films that play in movie theathers. This kind of production really makes me wonder, if we’re headed towards a future where actors get replaced with 3D models. Granted, actors will always come in handy to build such models, but working in 3D apparently gives director enough room to materialize their creative visions with crystal clarity. Oh by the way, if you’re curious to see some actual gameplay footage, here you go:

Bingo for beans? That’s kid’s stuff! Here’s the real deal.

So you’re one of those sad, disgruntled people who think Bingo is a game for old people sitting around in boring clubs wasting away what little time they have left? Well, shame on you! I’m actually a great Bingo fan, and I’ve had loads of fun playing this game… and occasionally I’ve even made some solid bucks! So in case you haven’t figured it out, I don’t think it’s a boring game… much the other way around. Lately I’ve actually been getting into Mobile Phone Bingo, which is pretty much a mobile variation of this world-famous game of chance.

If you’ve never heard about Mobile Bingo, this might be a good chance to get rid of your ready-made ideas and try having some fun for a change! I found this page where you can learn about mobile bingo, and also download the game free of charge! Not only that, you also get a $5 bonus to get you started on the thrilling and addictive hobby… after all, playing for beans is kid’s stuff, right?

Video Games are becoming America’s favorite entertainment.

I never cease to get amazed with the video game industry. I remember just a decade or two ago, video games were regarded as an inferior kind of entertainment, and not many people used to play. Well, nowadays this industry has become so big that it almost compared to the colossal movie industry. In fact, many modern video games are now sophisticated productions involving multi-faceted teams with dozens or even hundreds of people.Personally, I think this is a good thing – even though I also believe that some of the older games are sometimes more engaging than the graphical wonders that we’ve grown used to these days.

I guess this is a matter of personal preference, but all the while we should be happy there are so many entertaining games available! And if you enjoy keeping up with the latest video games news and reviews, or even picking up some game cheats to get you ahead of the game… this is where it’s at!  TVG is an increasingly popular resource for all things video game related, and if you’re tired of picking your news from the same old sources, maybe it’s about time you think about trying something new.
