2008-12-02 08:54:00 by Tobold in Tobold's MMORPG Blog
 
...uncomfortable when I talk about myself. They much prefer me in "sage mode": Dispensing wisdom, writing analysis, giving advice, reviewing facts, reporting news, and telling funny stories. But when I show too much enthusiasm, write about what worries me, react with emotions to some negativity, or show interests outside the narrow world of...

Your Turn: Virtual ideology

2008-04-10 20:58:24 by Jason Hill in Screen Play
...uncomfortable, no A game in which the player assumed the role of an Islamic extremist out to cause as much destruction and chaos would be completely unacceptable to our society, and indeed, I would wager, a majority of gamers, no matter how firmly grounded in satire Let's the reverse the roles again. This time the city isn't a fictional...

2008-05-12 02:41:33 by Editor in VirginWorlds MMO News
...uncomfortable. GTA is fundamentally about 3 things, and theyre all uncomfortable: violence, race, and sex. That these things speak to me is troubling and intriguing, tapping into the basest elements of humanity. It feels like there are three monkeys on my back. Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil its so archetypal its almost silly Ready...

...uncomfortable, as it's not always obvious how old someone is that you're talking to. Especially when you're worlds away from the polite and collaborative chat in a world such as Dizzywood So that leaves WeeWorld in kind of an odd position. As social networks go, it's got its benefits -- great avatar/room customization, for one -- but as an...

Reorganization at Microsoft - for whom the Jeff Bell tolls

2008-06-18 17:29:02 by Steve Gilhool in That VideoGame Blog
 
...uncomfortable media debut at E3 2007. Peter Moore was leaving Microsoft, and it seemed as if Bell were being groomed to be his replacement as the Microsoft press mouthpiece. That was short-lived, however, as Bells presentation (video above) ranged from uncomfortable (sounding like a used-car-salesman), to downright embarrassing (trash talking...

Games are my shield

2007-09-26 18:47:00 by Dani in NC in Average Girl Plays
 
...uncomfortable in a room with more than four people. If I don't have a task or a purpose, I get fidgety. I was the girl at the party who helped the hostess pick up empties instead of flirting with guys on the dance floor. Nowadays, that translates into me carrying my knitting everywhere; if I don't have anything to say, I can always...
