I have run across several game ideas, but am still unsure of what I would desire to dedicate my research to. Thus, I have come up with this...Mid-Evil games. I was curious as to why they in fact called them games, due to the fact, that the ending result was to die tryin. This provided a bit of a challenge for those participating in these "games."
So, here is my idea...research several different types of Mid-Evil games such as jousting; also how, and why they came up with these forms of entertainment. Not only that, but also who qualified as the brave individual to embark on these heroic events, and did they really get the girl in the end. Granted I still have some research to do, but this is just an idea.
Another point about games I find to be interesting is the process by which the human brain works to enjoy these games. Be it horseshoes, monopoly, or drinking games I'm just curious as to what it is about strategy, teamwork, and winning that makes us yearn for more defeat or success. Could it be that we are adrenaline junkies, or that we are hardwired to have that competitive streak? This enjoyment that we rely on from Nintendo, Cards, and Hasbro, among others, has existed for centuries and will continue to captivate us until the end of time. But not only do we enjoy to play these games, some individuals are just as content to observe these actions that are taking place, be it on television or up close and personal the crave still exists! But how can this be? Stay tuned.
