Endless Possibilities


(click for full strip)

For the uninitiated, Home is the new Playstation 3 online service structure. A 3D world, where an avatar representation of you interacts with other gamers online. You have an apartment, your Home as it were, that you can endlessly customize and decorate. Shrewed (read: juvenile) gamers were quick to point out that if you could view any video file from your computer on your virtual tv, in your virtual apartment, couldn't you then watch porn, if you had it?

Phil Harrison, President of SCEA, seemed almost embarrassed when someone actually asked him that question in an interview. I don't blame him.

It is embarrassing.

It's embarrassing for gamers when you are presented with something like Home, something that replicates a MySpace like environment for people to come together, socialize, and form a community, for free I might add, and watching porn in your virtual apartment is one of the first things that someone asks about.

Assassin's Creed trailer

I'm not really sure what to say, other than "wow".

Any one who says that video games aren't art needs to just shut the hell up.





For the interested, the song in the video is "Lonely Soul" by U.N.K.L.E.

Today's strip is, unfortunately, based on all too real events.

Since this was such a geeky/niche strip, I decided to do two strips this week. So Happy Wednesday Bonus Strip!

So part of this blog is revealed. A comic strip of the same name. I'm going to make an attempt to update this once a week. As time goes on, hopefully it will increase.

As for the content, well, it's pretty much my life. So, caveats all around.
