The Purpose

The Gamers Block is a website dedicated to creating a forum for mature, thoughtful discussion of the news that most impacts the gaming community. For years, games have been considered a toy, not worthy of critical thinking or analysis. We gamers know better. Whether deciding which of your friends must die for the good of the world, or whether to execute a starving man for stealing food, video games have the potential to help us better understand who we are in a way that no other medium can. Games face a critical time in their development, and it is more important than ever that gamers pay attention to the world around them, and be informed of what is going on in the gaming industry. This website will seek to provide impartial coverage of the most important, interesting and relevant news of our industry. Hope you enjoy!
