15 Things Games Can Do But Movies Cannot

View Hundreds of Elements Simultaneously

Real-time strategy titles, tactical turn-based strategy games and even RPGs all have a unique thing in common – they allow you to view the entire battlefield at once. As impressive as some movie war scenes can be, you’re often being guided from one scene to another rather than viewing hundreds of different elements at once. Films aren’t terrible for doing this – because theyhave certain characters and plots to focus on – but in terms of letting you pick and choose your focus, video games excel.
