On my class field trip to Toys 'R' Us, it was a fun experience. I actually found games I have never heard about or ever seen. I must return to pick up some board games and video games I found interesting such as Pictionary Man, Dr. Seuss - Oh, the places you'll go! and Brokus. I also didnt think I would be interested in video games but I think I will be making an investment in Nintendo Wii, and Nintendo Fit to go with it. I thought it was funny how when we were younger and had Game Boys, it was just the hand held game itself and games to go with it (cartridges), I found that in this day in age things have upgraded so much. They have a Nintendo DS, I seen a car adapter, different veriety of cases to put it in, head phones and so many other things to choose from.
A toy is an object that you do almost whatever, its limited to what you can do. A game has many different features and levels, it require focus and problem solving as oppose to a toy. With creativity, maybe a toy can be turned into a game. I can take a doll, put it in the middle of the floor and play Steal The Bacon. (joke).
I discovered that a video game isnt much different from a computer game, the one for computers just contain a little less of the graphics a television would have depending on the year of your computer. As far as problem solving, you'll find more made for your pc then console games. Overall, it's not that great of a difference but I would prefer to use a console I guess it's a little easier to manoever that the arrow keys and so on on a PC.
