In my last post on the nature of gaming I spoke about the quote; "A man chooses, a slave obeys". This quote comes from a popular PC/Console game set in a dystopic underwater world. This quote got me thinking about the differences between PC gaming and console gaming. I consider myself primarily a PC gamer with consoles being a main stream imitation of PC gaming.

It can be considered that a true gamer is a PC gamer. Why is this? Because to be a PC gamer it requires hassle....

Are we men (or women)?, or slaves? Is it by choice we decide to double click that shiny icon on our desktops? Or is there some other will that makes us? ("Would you kindly?"). The true question is does gaming control us or do we control 'it'?

Gaming is, was and will be a highly addictive past time (or should I say life style?). It is not a conscious choice but an inevitable force that slowly pulls us in, to the point of no return, like a caffeinated drink.... Oh the withdrawal...
