	Continue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Continue is the common term in video games for the option to continue the game after all of the player's lives have been lost, rather than ending the game and restarting from the very beginning.
		For example, in a platform game, an extra life may allow a player to continue from the point their character died, but a continue would leave the player at the beginning of the level he was playing.
		As a rule, arcade games contain a continue feature whenever a player loses all their lives, but they must use another credit (insert more coins) before it is allowed.

	The Video Game Revolution: "Eight Myths About Video Games Debunked" by Henry Jenkins \| PBS
		Former military psychologist and moral reformer David Grossman argues that because the military uses games in training (including, he claims, training soldiers to shoot and kill), the generation of young people who play such games are similarly being brutalized and conditioned to be aggressive in their everyday social interactions.
		Video games are not a meaningful form of expression.
		Yet, a child who responds to a video game the same way he or she responds to a real-world tragedy could be showing symptoms of being severely emotionally disturbed.

	Video Games
		With this introduction of video games, the social aspect which was thought to be a necessary component of game playing was eliminated.
		Video games allow a means by which to establish hierarchies of skill and ability, and ultimately leadership just like in other areas of life.
		Furthermore, video games are one of the few settings in which children can be teachers if grown-ups take the time to participate, and if they allow the children to lead the way.

		The average age of the video game player is now 29 [1] (http://biz.gamedaily.com/features.asp?article_id=8540andfilter=myturn), indicating that video games are not largely a diversion for teenagers, as many nongamers assume.
		Video games are made by developers, who can be individuals, but are almost always a team consisting of designers, graphic designers and other artists, programmers, sound designers, musicians, and other technicians.
		Video games are developing fast in all areas, but the problem is of the price and how developers intend to keep the price where it is while incorporating better technology, that inevitably costs more.

	Video Games St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture - Find Articles
		The term "video game" could only really be applied when Atari and Nintendo introduced game consoles into the home throughout the 1970s; the idea being that you would slot your Pong cartridges into the console and play the games through your television set--hence video rather than computer games.
		Following advances in video gaming is just a matter of tracing developments in the game consoles themselves (bearing in mind that, throughout the 1980s and 1990s, arcade machines and personal computers were also advancing the cause).
		That games were becoming more like movies was demonstrated by one of the most successful film tie-ins ever, the intelligent and action-packed James Bond spy simulation, Goldeneye (1997); and that Nintendo could corner the same adult market as the Playstation was demonstrated by the glorious prehistoric gore of Turok 2: Seeds of Evil (1998).

		For instance, in role playing games such as the ones that John described in the MMORPG section, gamers take on an identity and in some games, one is given the opportunity to "upgrade" a character.
		This is done by accomplishing certain tasks within the game that earn the gamer points which are used to upgrade certain characteristics of the character one is playing as.
		It is extremely difficult to fathom where video games will be twenty years from now, but, given their trend of enhancement throughout merely the past decade, one can reasonably infer that they will be nothing short of amazing.

		The term "computer game" also includes games which display only text (and which can therefore theoretically be played on a teletypewriter) or which use other methods, such as sound or vibration, as their primary feedback device, or a controller (console games), or a combination of any of the above.

		The real problem here is that video game companies essentially have a single revenue stream: sales of new games.
		The companies must have recently reached their threshold or they would have raised prices already, which means that every game before, say, late 2003 was priced according to something other than the cost of making it.
		Or at least that's what it seems like; the video game industry has done an even worse job than the music biz of explaining why games cost what they do.
