did you catch Panorama this evening about the computer game addiction?
Yeah watched it a bit.
I read a really interesting article a few months ago about how there are two types of game, those that reward time spent (warcraft, farmville etc) and those that you have to get skilled at to win (modern warfare, GT etc). Playing the former is much like the rats they were describing but fortunately I never really enjoyed those “go kill a rat, get a coin, buy a potion sort of games”.
Ye gads I wish I had the time to be addicted to computer games, I am lucky if I get a sneaky hour in once a week!
To be honest C_G, the first Accused wasn’t about real life, it was fictional. It even had one of those disclaimers in the credits I’ll bet. My experience of real life rarely matches the horrors I am told about daily by the tv. Yeah, bad things have happened but do I want them in my living room weekly? This evening I have been making signs for the Christmas play at MrsT’s school… much more enjoyable.
