Some time ago, I remember talking with another journo about what made games so great. One thing we came up with was that a really good game can get close enough to replicating an experience you’ll never have that your imagination can fill in the blanks and you can get just a little bit of the buzz that you might get from the real thing. I’m never going to drive a Ford Mustang at high speeds down the Vegas strip, command Roman legions or (thankfully) battle for survival against plague-ridden yokels in some weirdo Spanish village, but thanks to games I can get an inkling of what that might feel like.
