That's just my opinion. I myself wouldn't mind learning the song I was playing it seems fun.

The possibilities are limitless when it comes to teaching people through video games. I mean I understand that they serve a purpose of escapism, but I really think that we have so many forms of escapism how much more can we escape? We have a social responsibility to one another, to inform, to join together, to make sure that we as people and civilians take things into our own hands. Why not use video games as a medium for that very thing? We can't keep using entertainment to hide from the world around us. I think we need to use it to it's fullest potential. We don't need to be preachy about it, or even super in your face, but traditional teaching methods are failing, and considering game developers are some of the "powers that be"they have a social responsibility now. Maybe if kids/adults were more proactive in reading the news and researching things there wouldn't be a need to video games to be educational. however games are sometimes the one thing people understand, and why not give useful tools to consumers through a medium they understand and are passionate about?
