The Connection Between Adventure Racing & Gaming In General

By Rob Sutter


When you're talking about adventure racing in general, you're talking about one of the most physically demanding activities in the world. This is the one which has people putting forth some of their greatest efforts, perhaps even working harder than they ever have before. This is something to consider but is it possible for gaming to be seen alongside it? Judging from what I have seen, I would like to think that these two subjects can find their way so that they can work alongside each other.

Sonic the Hedgehog is one character who has always been known for his speed but that has taken something of a turn rather recently. In some of the latest games, he's been more about exploration, moving through one varied location after the next. This is important, to be certain, because it shows that he's not afraid to continue moving along as fast as possible. Exploration is important to him and I'm sure many others can say that this is their focus as well.

The "Assassin's Creed" series is perhaps one of the strongest which can be considered, especially when exploration has become such a crucial element in it. From Venice to Rome, you can be certain that a number of areas in Europe in general are going to be explored. Unlike Sonic, this series does not move at a quick pace but this allows players to appreciate the details of one location after the next. Do not make the mistake, though, that game is not one worth playing.

There are many series worth talking about in terms of action but this particular name has made me a fan from the start. Not only does it entail a great amount of adventure racing but it is clear that combat has become much more of a focus than ever before. These games have proven themselves to be quite varied and very few will be able to disagree with such a sentiment. The action does not seem to end, which is something that can be connected to the events the likes of Spartan Race, too.

As you can probably imagine, there are some elements which can be connected to adventure racing in general. There are many sights to see, of course, but obstacles are always going to find their way in front of you. It's up to you to be able to traverse each one that you see so that, in time, you will be able to succeed in an event which very few are able to do. While gaming might not have been the most relatable topic on the matter, certain elements apply.
