Mission Statement

Family Friendly Gaming (FFG) was cre-ated in March of the year of our Lord 2005 as the first ever Christian video game magazine. The goal of Family Friendly Gaming is to report on video games from the family view point. Family Friendly Gaming takes a fair and bal-anced approach to all news, previews, reviews, interviews, features, and other articles found within. The secular video game media reports mainly on the most morally bankrupt games and call those games good. The major secular media reports on the bad side of video games mainly. Most other Christian media outlets claim video games turn the player into a zombie, or they completely wor-ship video games. Family Friendly Gam-ing reports the good, and bad side effects to video games. It is the belief of the owners that readers are smart enough to come to their conclusions without those in the media handing opinions to them. Those of us at Family Friendly Gaming believe by giving you the facts, you can decide for yourself. There are plenty of re-ally good video games on the market that teach wonderful lessons. Both inside the Christian video game market, and from non-Christian video game developers. Family Friendly Gaming seeks out these video games to bring them to your atten-tion. Since it is unknown before playing a game how family friendly it is; it is possible that this magazine will preview a game, and then the review will expose problems previously unknown. Fam-ily Friendly Gaming promises to always ask the question: “how God feels about certain video games.” God’s opinion on the matter is more important than any mere mortal. Which is why the rest of the industry does not influence FFG.

Editor’s Desk

Family Friendly Gaming has covered E3 for nine straight years now. We have had teams in attendance for seven of those years. I have personally been at E3 in person each of those seven years. I took some time this year to reflect and meditate in prayer on those experiences. Want to know the sad thing? There have been multiple negative experiences each and every single year. Technology has gotten to the point where I question if attendance at E3 is even needed. The setup of the Los Angeles Convention Center is poorly set up, imple-mented, and run. The free food causes nasty stomache aches. The city has enough crime to choke on. Transportation is convoluted, expensive, and confusing. Many miles of walking is required every single day. Companies handle things differently at E3. Some want to meet at hotels nearby. Others meet at the show in a variety of dif-ferent rooms. Some handle us from game to game. Other tell you go out and have fun with whatever games you want to play. Some had cheap items to give away - that are always advertisements for their product. A level or part of a level was playable. There is little to no new content at the show. The press conferences were horrible, and very anti-family. The industry is moving away from families at an alarming rate. That is a recipe for destruction of the entire industry. There are too many violent, macabre, and morbid games. Which makes me wonder why I should spend so much money to show up to a show that has little for Family Friendly Gaming Nation. It can be covered from Memphis like other shows. Which will open up financial resources to attend some of those other shows in the future. We won’t attend next year in person. After that, God only knows.
