game consolesBetween PC titles and game consoles, finding a sweet role playing game in this day and age is easy. I can think of a few right off the top of my head, which had me addicted an hour after starting the story. RPGs on game consoles are like living a movie. Having control of decisions, how a scenario will turn out and the pace of the game is a really cool idea. Back in the day before RPG games like we see today I used to love reading those Choose Your Own Adventure books. You know the ones that said something like, “To travel to the castle go to page 31. To turn around and head back to the swamp turn to page 17.” I wonder if this type of book is as popular for elementary kids as it was when I was in school.

Now kids may be getting their fix solely out of RPG games. To all the parents questioning whether a book is a better growing experience over RPGs on game consoles, many I have played call for lots of reading and listening. So don’t worry.
