The best thing about videogames is that they're able to transcend all barriers into every form of media, even into the world of the haiku.
What? They seriously pay you to write this stuff?
That's the best thing about videogames, really?
It's not something related to, you know, actually playing them?
And is that in any way a unique feature of videogames?
That you can use them as a topic for haikus?
What barriers are there to transcend here?
What CAN'T you use as a topic for haikus?
You fail at making sense.
At least you didn't cite the exact same haikus that Kotaku did, though.
