On and Off Sale
I want to talk about online and offline computer games for a sec. Oh, wait, I guess they can all be online, given that Guitar Hero III and Rock Band are console games that connect to the internet, but I digress. I asked Brian to post about GH and I do hope to sponge off him again in regards to rock band. But I had lunch with Brian last week who was able to show me Eve online. It’s an incredible space opera massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) which is in fact not that new (although Mac access just came as of recently). But I was hooked as soon as I saw it in action. There is one drawback in which you have to stay “in ship” during the game. And while I would probably play anyway, I really hope an MMOG is set up for the Firefly/Serenity universe that would be the walkthrough of Second Life, with the in ship action of Eve online. Dare to dream.
