Why are hard games better than easier games?  The people at PBS-funded webseries, GAME/SHOW discusses this topic in their latest episode.

Are you less of a gamer if you drop the level down to easy? It just might be so. We all know that challenging games can be incredibly frustrating, so why do we put ourselves through this? Well, there is a greater satisfaction, but it goes deeper than this, hard games are what makes gaming a unique experience unlike any other.

Games that call for physical dexterity, moral deliberation, and tough problem solving is what separate out the noobs, but it’s also what separates games from every previous art forms like books, theater, and the movies.

In August of 2013, PBS kicked off a brand new weekly web series called GAME/SHOW, hosted by gamer and reporter Jamin Warren. The show provides relevant commentary on the current state of the video game industry in the same style as other PBS-funded web series such as Idea Channel.
