Inklings of Addiction...

[Michael Bailey]

I'm somewhat ashamed that i never have done much gaming atall ... I was
pretty good at one pinball game, long ago won a sub sandwich for high score
on Gulfstream, but, well - that game was an easy one.

Guys in my workgroup have been devoted to zelda, wow &c also quake but it
seems like a lot of pretend killing ... Hard to get very revved about
that...being a militant pacifist & all!!!

Ddr seems like fun, played it a little, then bought the sims a long time
ago but never got hooked

Portal is supposed to be cool but am i going to be striving to blow
somebody away?? Live & let live...

In bleeding edge i just read a reference to games that were "too beautiful"
to be marketable - any idea which games pynchon may have meant?

I remember being humiliated by myst, playing at a friend's house and
getting stuck at some limbo full of reproachful phantasms...that was a very
pretty game!
