Are Games Learning the Wrong Lessons from TV?

IGN: Halo 4's Spartan Ops and why episodic content is audience exploitation. (Culture, Halo 4)

Well yes, it's a tough time for console developers, seeing as mobile and tablet gaming is becoming the pecuniary elephant in the room.

As far as I'm concerned, they have cart-Blanche to do whatever they need to resist the behemoth of the Angry Birds crowd. Though it would be nice if they kept the content relevant and fun.

Why, I wonder, is IGN being so paranoid about this? I'm a Playstation gamer, but I'm sure there's nothing wrong with Spartan Ops. (not sure, don't have a 360)

Yes, TV sux. I dont watch it, its whats wrong with the world now. Through the TV has come every backword, twisted, deformed, psychotic, murderous, evil, depraved human attitude & dispostion.

People think, feel, act, the way they do because of what they learn from the images , words, sounds, resonating from TV(make believe). Gaming has been over run by the Corporate Socialist Propaganda machine called Hollywood.
