Open world games are defined by their emphasis on exploration and experimentation, allowing players to experience the world in an organic, challenging way. The best of them keep players coming back for more, always offering a little bit more depth and a strange new mystery to discover. Sometimes the story is secondary to this sense of wonder and excitement, but that doesn’t mean these titles can’t have a fantastic tale to tell....

One of the challenges in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 Week 10 is to get three seconds of airtime in a vehicle.

Video games are what can be described as an “audiovisual” performance. That is, the visuals and the sound come together to create one cohesive, interactive experience. But when one is ignored over the other, then the experience is rather jarring. For example, look no further than The Dark Knight Rises on how to not synch audio and visuals together. More often than not, the score completely misses the tone or the mood that the visuals portray....
