Surrealism or Fantasy

Surrealism for sure. The creator(s) can create a whole new fantasy world that breaks real world logic, such as the Super Mario world.

I play video games to get away from reality, not to get into another reality.

Same for me. Consequently, I have never understood the love for modern, realistic FPS games like the recent iterations in the Call of Duty series.

Not to lie, I have 2 ingame days played in Modern Warfare 2 which is quite a bit of time. That being said, I have not played since March 2010 and wonder why players love FPS games?
