i have been talkin bout the crappy stuff in my life, but on a much more serious note i wanted to talk bout how the coorporate world has targeted ppl via online games...
to begin with
THEY R EFFFIN ANNOYIN!

haha well that might only be my opinion, a few eg such as world of warcraft and final fantasy online, are just few of the games the provide a virtual world that keeps its user glued to the computer seat,
It is quite an interactive way meetin ppl around the world, n playin along with them just by playin a small price...monthly. lets say the initial expense is around 30$ and a monthly fee for continuous subscription should be around 4-5$ now around millions of ppl who have subscribed to this game, u get the point dont you, plus usually the games that were initially created have limited number of quests or adventures, therefor an expansion pack is usually released to keep the ppl hooked onto the game and make a profit by putting another price tag on it.

in these games, u can make ur own character, and completely personalize it, pretty or ugly, choose wat kinda skill u want to master in (blackmage, warrior etc), enter the world and fulfill quests and bounties, by doin that u can lvl up, gain money and item, its usually the "greed for more" that keeps a person soo hooked up to the game.
plus there is no age limit, so u may even find a 30yr old playin this game...

how do i know so much? well, its cuz my damn bro has been playin this stupid game for almost an year now n I HATE IT CUZ I CANT BROWSE! its gr8 that we have dsl n bro has exploited it to its full capacity. the main server is connected to his pc, through wireless network we have all been using it on our computers, (just how many do i have in my house, well mostly all are laptops, n 1 more personal computer)
therefore weneva he plays the game which is like 24/7, its impossible for anyone to download or browse pages more than 20 or even access someone elses pc, cuz it will kill the bandwidth for his pc, n his game will start to lag...

i tried once to play one of his characters, he was pretty eager to teach me cuz i could play his chars n lvl them up while hes gone to univ, well, my other bros n sis who are as much agitated with this prob as i am thought it was the worst idea ever, cuz i might actually get hooked up to the game too.
his char was pretty advance and there were about millions of icons i could see on the screen, as he quickly briefed me through it, i felt like he was speakin some other lang... O_o i still cant even control the movements of the char n he wants me to lvl up his char...yah rite,
i got fedup with the stupid piece of crap, n decided never to play sucha stupid game!
all u do is just run around, n kill monsters

ppl are wasting soo much of their precious time on pcs, i mean seriously, i know u cant meet other ppl n stuff online too, but it really affects one personality, the person becomes more and more secluded, loses touch with the reality...

even users have found a way to make money, buy selling stuff, and characters too! not virtual but real money, some ppl find it too troublesome to lvl up their chars so go to ebay n souq.com n buy em.. i was pretty shocked wen my bro told me bout it, i dunno if its the truth or not, plus i m too lazy to even verify it.

to be honest, i hate this game, i hate the ppl who have created it manipulating ppls minds so that they would engross themselves further and further into a never-ending game and reap money outta their pockets.
