I believe any videogame today is to be judged by the quality of its 'interaction'. 

In the following entries I'm defining interaction, establishing a base framework for a review centred around the main element, and analyze any work in the intention of breaking it down for everyone to see it in its inmost essence.

The goal of this  method of criticism is to discriminate and realize, at last, the deficiencies of many products and decree the imperative of depth in videogames, simply highliting interaction as a concrete independent element, isolated from the other, less important, parts of videogames, give interaction the place it's due since maybe fricking Aristoteles came up with it.

 

*In addition of the attempt of describing and evaluate any videogame by this criteria, collateral considerations will present as we go on in this journey, and may be interspersed among the core of the topics, such as videogaming history to mark the media's evolution and provide a wider perspective, theories about criticism, ideas for vg design and miscellaneous philosophical ranting.
