The third Open Discussion for July is here. If you don’t know, this series is all about discussing old, current, and new things happening around the world. You can post up anything about video games, movies, politics, and TV shows and will face no penalty or censorship when doing so. This series of discussions changes every week, but mainly focuses on video game culture.

The Open Discussion arrives every Sunday on this site and explores a variety of topics that include technology, interactive entertainment, politics, and other mediums. Moreover, like any other post on this site, no comment will face any form of censorship.

In addition to the above, if one of your comments face a form of censorship — in that it’s removed or blocked — let us know so that we can address the situation and restore your comment. Due to the acts of WordPress and current year comment providers, a post of yours might face problems but, as mentioned above, shoot us a message and we’ll try to straighten things out.

With all of that said, this Open Discussion is about video game trends and your thoughts on them. For instance, what do you think of trends that are fun? Also, what do you think of worn-out trends that are used to make bank on people?

Moreover, you can detail what trends you think will die out soon, what trends will emerge, and what trends you’d like to see pop up in the games industry.

If you have something else on your mind and wish to share it on this Open Discussion, you are free to post it up here. This means that content or stuff unrelated to trends can be shared without being moved or taken down.

This week’s music comes from Streets of Rage 2 or Bare Knuckle 2 and is Dreamer:
