It May Even Be In Our Time

To expand a little on what I wrote yesterday, I’d like to share a beautiful quote with you. Special thanks to John for telling me the story, and Mara for being there.

A man walks into Gamestop and begins returning his old games. One of the games he hands over the counter is Shadow of the Colossus. The person at the counter looks at the game, confused, and looks back up at the man.

“Do you mind if I ask… this is Shadow of the Colossus, why are you returning this game?”

His answer will forever make me smile.

“This game makes me think,” he says, furrowing his brow. “I don’t like to think.”

It’s moments like these that reveal which games have achieved the highest forms of art.
