Anything from under the sun, from contemporary politics to primitive occultism, from modern to 's, or from to, was a narrative device for him, which he brought into play in his stories and novels.

Welcome all, to my first big project: A LP of Game of Thrones for the PS3! This is going to be a huge undertaking, and I hope you guys will be here to provide feedback, give advice, or just chat in general.
I always love getting comments, so leave one if you have something to say! Intro: You know what Game of Thrones is, or at least you've heard of it. Better yet, you know the spectacular book series that started the whole thing, called 'A Song of Ice and Fire'.
The book series is currently five books long (and, from what I've heard, is made up of even more outside the United States because of the way the material has been split up) and the author, George RR Martin, has two more books planned to finish it off. The books themselves are amazing; Martin uses a rather unique style of telling the story from multiple points of views, with characters always being well fleshed out with intricate backstories, motives, and relationships. What TRULY sets this series apart is Martin's refusal to conform to usual story-telling norms. 'Main' characters die left and right.
No one is 'good' or 'bad', with each and every character having their own reasons and desires for what they set out to accomplish. 'Predictable' endings are turned on their heads, and there's a plot twist that was fully foreshadowed, but you didn't catch, in every other chapter. But what you've probably heard of most is the now critically acclaimed 'Game of Thrones' HBO series. Based heavily on the books, the show is just about as good as you can possibly get with an adaption. They follow Martin's superb method of storytelling to a T, and the casting for each role is almost always spot on. Tomb raider congratulations you have successfully installed downloadable conten.
Because the show has been such a hit, Game of Thrones is now recognized world-wide, and it's only natural that a video game would follow. So, in 2012, Game of Thrones: The Game was released for the Playstation 3 Xbox 360, and PC. I'll be playing the PS3 version of the game.
But games based on movies/TV suck. Yes, they generally do. And to be honest, Game of Thrones, when compared to what immediately pops in your mind as its competition (Elder Scrolls.), is not all that great. The combat can be monotonous, and the overall gameplay is something that requires a certain taste.
But the narrative is what hammers this game home. I was utterly shocked by the twists and turns that happen throughout, and because the ending changed because of your choices, I couldn't help but play through until I had found them all.
The story truly meets Game of Thrones standards, and has a certain immersion to it if you're a diehard fan like I am. I'll be heavily editing battles most likely, as they are quite repetitive and not fun to watch. But I'll be keeping the story in full tact, and for those of you who might not understand the world of Westeros that much, I'll be providing additional commentary on characters and situations that will help you enjoy the narrative to its fullest. How DOES it play exactly? It's very combat based, and you have multiple choices to make when it comes to attributes of our two protagonist, Mors and Alester. Now before you ask.
