The point of playing a video game is to finish it (win) or finish creating it so others can experience it. Just like the point of reading a book is to finish reading it or writing a book is to finish writing it so other people can experience it. Just like the point of painting or drawing is to finish so others can experience it. I figure video games are just as much art as these other examples but more in depth, a combination of multiple kinds of art. Video games could be a story, graphics, video, and experience all in one.
I think if I had fast food logos flashed in front of me I would be hungry or more likely to buy fast food. I don't think it would have any influence on any other type of product I would buy. Could it be that the test subjects were more likely to buy the 3-in-1 skin treatment because that image was flashed in front of them or maybe because it was a more convenient purchase. Maybe it was the skin treatment they already bought.
