It's the holiday season, and that means there's a bumper crop of video games pouring out of development houses and vying for our screen time. Two of the biggest releases this year are "Battlefield 3" and "Modern Warfare 3," a pair of photorealistic First-Person Shooters that put you behind the eyes of soldiers. Each game has sold millions of copies, raking in even more millions of dollars for their developers and publishers. They're popular, sure, but the developers are taking the wrong lessons from their popularity. The problem isn't that "Battlefield 3" and "Modern Warfare 3" are successful, it's that the gaming industry sees them as successes.

Sometimes, when I'm bored, I like to watch other people play video games. I'm not alone, either—an entire community has sprung up in support of "eSports," which is a fancy term for what most people would consider competitive video gaming. Interestingly, it's fairly popular: Video streams of popular tournaments will often bring in tens of thousands of viewers who are following their favorite teams and players. But as far as the popular consciousness goes, eSports isn't often discussed just because most people don't even know it exists. For those of us who enjoy it, we really want to see it flourish. There's a lot of talk about growing eSports and making eSports more popular, but it's often directed at a pre-existing community. If the eSports community is going to stand up and scream WE DEMAND TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY, we need to be willing to take outreach seriously.

Moral choice systems are all the rage in video gaming these days. There's only one problem: not all choices are created equal.
