The Campus Activities Board decided that the students on campus could use more video games in their lives. That’s why Kayla Hockman, sophomore public affairs major and CAB Films Chair, came up with the idea to have a video game truck come to campus last week.

Competition was intense at the Mario Kart Tournament Feb. 23 in Leo’s Den. The Campus Activities Board held the tournament on the Nintendo Wii in the Campus Center.

People of all ages came to see a 10-year-old battle a 20-year-old in a relaxing, yet competitive, game of “Marvel vs. Capcom” at the video game club.

Now it has been seven years, three games into the series, and “Kingdom Hearts” is back yet again.

The season of giving is upon us. Of course, that would imply that many video game-related gifts will be the highlight of most college students’ holiday.

Close those curtains, tell your family you are dead, and let your girlfriend know that it is over, it is that time of the year again. Yes, my friends “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2″ has finally been released.

Although many parents and critics of video games claim that many of today’s video games are filled with violence and unrealistic virtual realms, they are not any worse than the alternative – creating games that simulate real life experiences and daily activities.
