Because there are too many people there for them to actually screw with, because when the cops show up, they all bolt. They're looking for everyone they didn't get.

Every MMO developer who's created an MMO with a PvP aspect would like to talk to you about your ideas of universal acceptance of implied consequences.

Less racist than the 1800s is an easy bar to clear. There were codified laws that pretty much prevented any non-White people in America from being people.

I'd be more partial to The New World era, then. No codified law, the ability to make your own, no royalty to really enforce anything.

No.

And then what do you do with the $40k the player didn't feel they got their money's worth out of?

Oh, no. You got it all wrong. MiB is looking for next-level exploits. Once he finds the center of the maze, dude's gonna start griefing.

There's a speech that Hopkins gives about the purpose of the park when he shuts down the one guy's narrative pitch, that made me instantly realize this show was an exploration of game design.

If this is true, this is actively making me not want to look into Project Firestart.

That's not necessarily true. I'm in the same boat as you, but I grew up in the US. For decades I always classified console games as "lesser" because they were such primitive experiences to what you'd get on a PC without the ability to save and reload.

If you dig into the actuals, there isn't a video game industry crash, there's just a console crash. The winners are all on PC. EA, Activision and others all become prominent in the same period of time this "crash" is supposedly happening, so I don't buy this whole skewed crash view.

Mail Order Monsters is the answer to the question, "What if Pokemon were a better game?"

I will be looking into this once I get home. This sounds like good stuff.

You have a funny way of spelling Rakim.

All I ever needed to know about Russia the tourist destinaion I learned during World Cup 2002.

You're talking about Broncos? Denver? And things of that nature?

"Those field goals in the crisper could really swing this game, Jim."

How many oil wells had he lit on fire that night?

It works for everything!
