Game On


Our gaming class (yes, there is such a thing) went to the Game On exhibit at the Science Museum in South Kensington. You could play the games of the 80s to the present, but you had to battle it out with kids on vacation (it was half term). Mario, Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Streetfighter, Dance Rev, Harry Potter--the list goes on and on. I was hoping to get more insight into game development, but I guess the most I found out was that Lara Croft was supposed to be Lara Cruz. Does that mean English aristocrats have more universal appeal?

    So have you become a total gamer now?

    i'd call myself a gamer, but not a game addict. for the class, i've had to play three games to get the feel of them: the sims (original), baldur's gate II:shadows of amn, and tomb raider(4): the last revelation.

    the class also looks at fan cultures and gaming in education. but i spend the most time reading game theory.
