5 Games To Help You Survive The Heatwave

Gary Swaby of thekoalition.com writes: As I sit here in my vest and shorts sweating away half of my body fluid, the realisation hit me that the past two weeks have most likely been the hottest ever in the United Kingdom. There has been record braking temperatures of up to 33.5C (92.3F) at Heathrow and Northolt in London thanks to the heatwave.

I'm in the mood to game, but I'm just too damned hot to have the patience for it. But wait, there are games that can help me survive this ungodly heat. Five of them come to mind as I type this, and perhaps you (the reader) will help us discover some more heat drenching video games.

Record breaking temps at 92 degrees. Crap, I live in the desert and in the summer it gets upto 120 degrees for the summer. Palm Desert is a oven during the summer.

Good games though...only haven't played SSX.

Please stop comparing video games to movies

"Many video games catch not only great commercial attention but remarkable critical attention as well. We have seen games like Heavy Rain, The Last of Us Part II, and even entries in the Metal Gear series described as fantastic interactive experiences, even heralded in the same way as Hollywood's greatest films.

I would suggest that not only is this an unfair comparison but also a harmful one. Video games, by their very nature, are an intricately different medium and should be weighed against one another rather than another form of media," Phillip writes for GF365.

Yes, please stop. They're better than most hollywood drivel nowadays.

I think Hollywood films will becoming increasingly more like video games in the future, especially as the world embraces the "new normal" from the pandemic. It makes sense, as games like Spider-Man: Miles Morales showcase just how realistically we're reaching in graphical capabilities, as well as showcase extreme action sequences in spectacular ways. And as time goes by, it'll get easier and cheaper to produce such "art", as well as create new star "actors" that never age, never die, never complain, never gets involved in scandals, etc. Technology is amazing and we're only just getting a taste of what it'll eventually be.

No. Some games are like movies.

No. For the money spent, a quality game provides far more entertainment value than a quality movie. Especially when looking at what is going on in the world, and how a studio can attempt to pilfer from consumers by charging 30 dollars for Mulan via streaming. Ridiculous. There is no comparison....games all day.
