Here are a couple of great critiques of video games that I've read recently.
Scholarly Gamer: Reading Call of Duty 4: In interesting yet brief analysis of some major events in COD4. Well worth a read. Obviously, spoiler warnings apply.
Schlagund's Playground: No More Heroes is Not Punk: At least, it's not THAT kind of punk. This article is fascinating and incredibly in-depth. It's also fairly long, and the again, spoiler warnings apply. I want to talk about it but I'm not really sure what to say except that it's fantastic.
This is the kind of thing I would love to see more of and talk about, but more importantly, I'd love to see more games that inspire this sort of writing.
I'll be writing about Majora's Mask in the near future (once I finish re-playing it); hopefully I can approach the high bar that's been set!
(Edit: Why did I think "critiquings" was a word...?)
