Pure Sophistry takes a look at the art and culture of gaming- specifically the nuances of avatars as masks-
"Online games have a kind of power that is rarely found in the day to day world; These platforms allow you to be someone else. While more than a few people see this as a massive problem with the internet, I can’t help but think that this is one of the reasons internet forums, MMO’s and any game you can play online are so popular. People crave masks. Using a pseudonym or avatar to represent yourself allows you to do things you’d never be able to in real life, or act in a slightly different way than you’d choose to from day to day."
Blizzard Entertainment has announced the opening of beta registrations for “World of Warcraft: The War Within,” inviting players to explore new subterranean worlds beneath Azeroth.
Danish from eXputer: "Despite Blizzard's attempt to give a fresh new spin to World of Warcraft, some fans still seem to be stuck in the past."
HG writes: "Blizzard is usually pretty bad at keeping secrets, but the company somehow managed to keep this one under wraps until now. Plunderstorm is a special limited-time event that’s basically World of Warcraft’s take on the Battle Royale genre."
Agree Disagree? Or too busy playing games to care?
I dont scream at all.
If I mess up, I just continue playing.
Barely any reaction
Logic and emotions do go well together.
"Why do you scream at your TV?"
I do not do it when I am gaming but always do it when I am watching football and the ref makes a bad call against my Patriots.
Because it makes me feel better
