Rehabilitating the Prisoners of Play By Mail

[vanollefen]

I like the observation about thinking about how to kill someone and clicking to kill them in a game. My PBM background is probably why I still favor more strategic games, even online,rather than first person shooters, no matter how sophisticated they have become.

To continue on my evolution theme - there is a local comedy "play"/one man show where the comedian discusses civilizations throughout history. He says the Greeks gave us philosophy and thinking. Then the Romans conquered them, and said what do you think about that.
