<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>In tribute to Counterstrike and all the fun we had with that legendary FPS, a movie in tribute: Glugly II.  What is &#8220;glugliness?&#8221;  It&#8217;s a combination of good, bad, and ugly all at  once, that can make you happy at times, but sad most of the other time.  It&#8217;s a description of every CS noob who ever lived, TKing/nading/dying their way through the CS stream.  All in all, it&#8217;s having a good time playing CS, no matter how good or bad you are.</p>
<p>BTW, Glugly II is a 27-minute video made my Marshmallow.  It can be found in <a href="http://marsh.speedrunwiki.com/Glugly%20II/Glugly_II_NQ.rar">Low Quality</a> and <a href="http://marsh.speedrunwiki.com/Glugly%20II/Glugly_II_HQ.rar">High Quality</a>.</p>
<p>Oh btw again, my tag in CS used to be glugs&#8230;^^.  A short review can also be found <a href="http://www.style-productions.net/?page=read_article&#38;id=404&#38;p=1">here</a>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>There&#8217;s no shortage of wars in today&#8217;s world.</p>
<p>The horror of aggression, forced oppression, control and even genocide are an everyday occurence. It&#8217;s said there are enough guns in existence today to arm one out of every twelve people on the planet. What that means to me is the other eleven aren&#8217;t trying to steal my job. Yes, business is good for a digital mercenary.</p>
<p>The only problem is living long enough to enjoy retirement.</p>
<p>I have only been out of work for a week. Well, five &#8220;business days&#8221; &#8212; if you can call them that in my industry. Partly by choice, but mostly of necessity. I needed the break to transfer all my operations to my new laptop (see previous postings), and to take a small vacation from the constant barrage of gunfire aimed in my general vicinity. Yes, business is good.</p>
<p>News feeds of electronic conflicts are in no short supply, either. All week my cell phone has lit up with RSS feeds and emails. The Borderlands seems to be the newest hot spot for soldiers such as myself. No doubt the war is raging quite fiercely there, with veterans and greenies alike. I&#8217;m also confident there are enough &#8220;kids&#8221; there shooting their mouths more than their weaponry with access to the war there via 360 units. Not my cup of whiskey &#8212; I prefer to take aim at older, more sophisticated targets. Call me a snob, but I&#8217;d rather catch a bullet by someone that&#8217;s seen as many tours of duty as I than some young punk smacking bubble gum straight off his mum&#8217;s teet with a chip on his pre-pubescent shoulder and a lucky shot.</p>
<p>Other news feeds are pointing to a growing conflict in the Call of Duty armies &#8212; their second Modern Warfare war. I say &#8220;growing&#8221; lightly, as more soldiers have pre-enlisted there than any other conflict before. I will eventually enroll there, once my real-world cash flow stabilizes.</p>
<p>Until then, I&#8217;m eyeing an old turmoil in Africa to join. If you&#8217;re going to kill digital enemies, you may as well be somewhere gorgeous while you do it. And I hear Africa is nice this time of year, if you can avoid the malaria.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-174" title="OMG BEST GAME EVAR" src="http://analoguesticks.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/codmw21.jpg" alt="OMG BEST GAME EVAR" width="500" height="375" /></p>
<p><strong>apocalex</strong>: The release of Modern Warfare 2 is right around the oft-mentioned corner, releasing on the pseudo-significant date of 11.10.09.  Unless of course, you&#8217;re from a lot of other countries who (silly foreigners!) prefer the logical, dd.mm.yy of 10.11.09.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been anticipating this game since it was first <a title="gdc teaser" href="http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gdc-09-modern-warfare/47179" target="_blank">teased</a>.  And then news started trickling in, and in recent weeks a TON of news deluged the gaming community.  The list so far, in no particular order is:</p>
<p>1. Modified Killstreak and Deathstreak system</p>
<p>2. Implementation of IW.net</p>
<p>3. A requirement that players be in game chat not party chat</p>
<p>4. A 3rd person gametype</p>
<p>5. A tactical nuclear strike</p>
<p>That&#8217;s the list so far (excluding ingame specific things like throwing knives and the AC-130, which are new, but not experience changing outside of the game, I&#8217;ll explain why #&#8217;s 1, 4, and 5 are).</p>
<p>#1.  The first little snippet of info from MW2 gameplay trailers and demos I saw was this.  And I looked at it very carefully before taking my first steps from the &#8220;MW2, hooah!&#8221; camp to the &#8220;Wait, say that again, and excuse me for the slap going towards your face from my hand&#8221; camp.  I&#8217;m all for killstreaks, getting dogs in CoD:WaW was satisfying, and since I played WaW before MW, getting a chopper in MW was hilarious fun because it felt harder to achieve for me.  But correct me if I&#8217;m wrong &#8211; killstreak rewards being so plentiful and different for everybody leads to a game crushed beneath the weight of them.  Assuming your players are, well, <em>playing</em>; a full game with a good assortment of people will have a constant stream of what I&#8217;m going to call powerups (a very conscious choice because of the gaming history of powerups) flying around from both teams.</p>
<p>Possibility #1: MW2 will be a much more &#8220;arcade-like&#8221; game and accessible for more casual players.</p>
<p>#2.  IW.net is one of the hottest topics regarding MW2 right now, because it is a clear indication that the PC market is no longer a focus for cross-platform games(this is a line of thought that has, since XBOX Live become the success it is, been around for a while).  I&#8217;m a PC gamer from before CS (in fact I was a bigger fan of DoD (los los los!) and this is a rather sticky subject for me.  To me it just feels like they are ignoring the PC gaming community, and the support that PC fans give to games.  Console games have always been a hit or miss thing for me, because DLC is strictly regulated and costs money.  But when the Desert Combat mod for Battlefield 1942 matured, all of a sudden my old game from years ago became a whole new monster, which provided a platform that rivaled the actual retail successor, Battlefield 2.  It is of interest to me that dedicated hosting is no longer important to a developer like Infinity Ward.  I understand that modders and clans are a minority of gamers in the postmodern world.  But so are congressmen and legislators.  I may not agree with some of their voices (aside: and some of them are campy bastards), but they&#8217;re also the ones who helped make gaming mainstream.  Counterstrike was a mod, a fact many people forget, and Counterstrike put PC gaming firmly on the map, introducing many people to a game that wasn&#8217;t aliens or elves, swords and rayguns.  Real world weapons, small, quick games.  IW.net has possibilites, however not all of them are good.  This is not simply providing &#8220;official&#8221; servers like EA&#8217;s BF2 servers, this is the implementation (an attempt) that is on a very slippery slope in the philosophical argumentation sense of the term.  What about paying an extra fee for &#8220;extra&#8221; services?  With Valve&#8217;s influence on the content delivery space with Steam, you are not that far away from going the download service route and paying for extra &#8220;speed&#8221; as Fileplanet, Rapidshare, and others already do.  (This is another post altogether though so I&#8217;ll stop that train of thought now).</p>
<p>Possibility #2: MW2 is attempting to control as much content as possible.  Making matchmaking &#8220;easier&#8221; for more casual players, but leaving little room for player experimentation (and cheating, yes).</p>
<p>3.  <strong>soroboruo</strong> sent me a link to <a href="http://www.360-hq.com/article-3509-thread-1-0.html" target="_blank">this</a> screenshot today.  It&#8217;s actually an interesting development, but again, the benefits are as variable as the costs.  It can be construed as more evidence that clans are losing what influence they had with developers, since even my 2 gaming friends enjoyed the relatively quiet bliss of yelling combat intel and insults between us without random people with open, static filled mics or annoying voices.  At first glance I believe this to be a good thing for gaming, making the playing field level and such, but unless they implement an ingame, easy way to mute players, I&#8217;m probably going to be more annoyed than anything else.  Also, the eavesdrop perk was removed from MW2 &#8211; and it would ultimately be my best argument for the implementation of requiring game chat only.</p>
<p>Possibility #3: MW2 is attempting to level the playing field for and against clans (and possibily cheaters), but has removed the best reason for this (Eavesdrop perk).</p>
<p>4.  This actually again feels like an argument towards what seems to be the underlying reason for all the changes, MW2 is going to be a monster of a game, attempting to be everything to everyone.  A third person game type would logically be more tactical, stealth based, and draw in a lot of the old R6 crowd.  On the other hand, it is entirely possible a third person camera would shift towards the Mercenaries, Red Faction side, where battles were characterized with more arcade like game styles.</p>
<p>Possibility #4: Well, no real possibilities without real ingame experiences and play.</p>
<p>5.  So I lied a little, there is an order to my list, at least with this one, because I wanted to talk about this last.  A tactical nuclear strike?  One that kills everyone, friend or foe alike, and leads to, in the words of a dedicated MW2 <a title="YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME" href="http://www.themodernwarfare2.com/?n=40" target="_blank">website</a>: &#8220;an instant win&#8221;.  This, along with the very moving death scene in MW, to me borders on grotesque.  It is also gamebreaking in my opinion, since there were many (well, that sounds arrogant, there were a few) times in WaW where I would have a 25 kill streak and we would still lose the game.  This is deus ex ludus, no other game with a high focus on multiplayer gives you the possibility of an instant win.  It is game breaking in my opinion.</p>
<p>Possibility #5: Honestly, I have no idea why they would implement this.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s all I can think of right now.  This is one of the most hyped games in recent years and its actually scary how much influence it already has before being released, pushing back other games&#8217; release dates, scaring off a lot of the smaller developers from the holiday shopping season.</p>

<description><![CDATA[IceFrog, the current developer of DotA AllStars, the popular Warcraft 3 mod is now working for Valve]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-437" title="Dota Loading Screen - Dota 6.63" src="http://savenload.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/dota-loading-screen-dota-6-63.jpg" alt="Dota Loading Screen - Dota 6.63" width="540" height="405" /></p>
<p>IceFrog, the current developer of DotA AllStars, the popular Warcraft 3 mod is now working for Valve. Nothing unexpected here, the previous developer, Guinsoo, is now working with Riot Games on League of Legends, a variation on the DotA scheme with quite a few fresh ideas. So it&#8217;s nice to see these guys turning from map creators to full time game devs.<!--more--> What bugs me out is the statement from IceFrog: &#8220;As I&#8217;ve said many times in the past and <em>especially after today&#8217;s developments</em>, I am very excited about DotA&#8217;s future!&#8221;</p>
<p>So he&#8217;ll continue working on DotA, but now under Valve. I guess that&#8217;s &#8230; (kinda) good news for us, great news for IceFrog and AWESOME news for Valve. With the 2 most successful mods ever (CounterStrike and DotA) under their belt and a shitload of other projects (Left 4 Dead 2, new Portal installment), I wonder when Valve will take some time to finish that Half Life 2 story (yeah, I went as far as to call it a story). IceFrog&#8217;s post below:</p>
<p>&#8220;I have some really awesome news I&#8217;d like to share with you guys. I am now leading a team at Valve! I finally have all the resources needed to do some very exciting stuff that you guys will love. I look forward to revealing more specific details when the time is right.</p>
<p>My goal and top priority in the future is to solve the surrounding issues that affect the DotA experience in order to allow it to reach new heights. Addressing these issues will enable us to further enjoy aspects of DotA such as the gameplay, mechanics, and in-game feel that currently work well and ought to be maintained. As I&#8217;ve said many times in the past and especially after today&#8217;s developments, I am very excited about DotA&#8217;s future!</p>
<p>With regards to the 6.64 patch, the focus will be primarily on more balance improvements. It is moving along very smoothly and I expect to have it ready soon. Once those refinements are done, I&#8217;ll be working on some fun new content such as heroes or remakes for the 6.65 version. If there are specific things, big or small, you want me to consider for patches that follow, let me know.&#8221;</p>

<description><![CDATA[  Ето къде се крие спасението – забранете видеоигрите и проблемите започват да се решават от само се]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://pcstorebg.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/image10.png"><img class="aligncenter" style="display:inline;border:0;" title="image" src="http://pcstorebg.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/image_thumb10.png?w=244&#038;h=185" border="0" alt="image" width="244" height="185" /></a></p>
<p> </p>
<p align="justify">Ето къде се крие спасението – забранете видеоигрите и проблемите започват да се решават от само себе си! Гениалната идея е плод на не кого да е, ами на самия Уго Чавес – прочутият президент на Венецуела. <!--more--> Вероятно повечето от вас са запознати с тази епична личност и са дочували това – онова за него, както и за ситуацията в страната – крайна бедност, робски труд, огромни кокаинови плантации и ниво на престъпност, което би шокирало дори и Лонг Джон Силвър.</p>
<p align="justify">В един такъв момент официален враг на държавата се явява не какво да е, ами видеоигрите (че аз дори не вярвах там да имат пари за компютри).  Според критиците, подобен ход от страна на президента има за цел да успокои неговите поддръжници и да замаже очите им за ширещото се беззаконие в родната им Венецуела – как са го измислили само, а!</p>
<p align="justify">Според статистиката за миналата година, в страната се самоубиват 152 души седмично, което прави 7900 годишно (дано сега като спрат насилствените видеоигри нещата се променят). Престъпността е около 5 пъти по-висока от тази в Тексас, където дори правителството все още счита за правилно да убива хора.</p>
<p align="justify">За съжаление, отново тези песимистично настроени критици твърдят, че последния гениален ход на Чавес едва ли ще промени нещо, тъй като държавните агенции не разполагат с достатъчно персонал, а пиратските видеоигри хората си играят по домовете.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Gestern, am 17.09.2009, gab es einen Amoklauf an einem Gymnasium in Ansbach. Heute ist auf br-online]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Gestern, am 17.09.2009, gab es einen Amoklauf an einem Gymnasium in Ansbach. Heute ist auf br-online.de zu lesen, daß der <a href="http://www.br-online.de/studio-franken/aktuelles-aus-franken/gewalttat-ansbach-2009-kw38-ID1253171576666.xml" target="_blank">Täter bereits seit längerer Zeit in psychotherapeutischer Behandlung</a> gewesen sei und seine Tat offensichtlich längere Zeit geplant habe. <!--more--></p>
<p>In meinem Lieblings-Vorzeige-Forum von <a href="http://meinungen.web.de/forum-webde/post/6648156?sp=0" target="_blank">web.de</a> wird nach einer Meldung zum Gesundheitszustand eines der Opfer bereits heftig diskutiert.</p>
<p>Interessant finde ich, daß offensichtlich alleine das Surfen auf web.de übermenschliche Kräfte zu verleihen scheint. Offensichtlich mit der Gabe der Prophezeihung begabt, meldeten sich verschiedene User zu Wort, die die Ursachen schon zu kennen glaubten &#8211; bevor die Meldung auf br-online.de erschienen ist (welche auch im Widerspruch zu deren Aussagen steht).</p>
<p>Da wird über Mobbing an Schulen geschrieben, über vertane Chancen im Bildungswesen, allgemein über das Versagen der Politiker und natürlich über Ego-Shooter. Kein Mensch weiß, ob der Täter gemobbt worden ist, welchen Bildungsstand er hat (daß er an einem Gymnasium eingeschrieben ist, sagt noch nichts über seinen tatsächlichen Bildungsstand aus), welche politischen Entscheidungen Anteil an dieser Aktion hatten und ob er überhaupt einen PC hatte (geschweige denn, ob er CS gespielt hat.</p>
<p>Auch ich weiß es (noch) nicht. Und es kann durchaus sein, daß mancher, vielleicht sogar jeder o.g. Gründe zutrifft &#8211; wir werden sehen. Dennoch werde ich zu diesem Zeitpunkt nicht zu <em>einem</em> der o.g. Themen im Zusammenhang mit diesem Amoklauf beitragen, da es nichts bringt, <em>eine Diskussion</em> über die Beseitigung von Gründen für einen Amoklauf <em>zu beginnen</em>, <em>bevor</em> die Gründe überhaupt bekannt sind.</p>
<p>Das ist natürlich langweiliger als die x-te Diskussion zur Frage des Anteils von Ego-Shootern an Amokläufen. Da stehen Menschenmassen zusammen, um gegen andere Menschenmassen ins Gefecht zu ziehen: die PC-Spieler gegen die konservativen Politiker &#8211; &#8220;wir&#8221; gegen &#8220;Euch&#8221;.</p>
<p>Natürlich kann man allgemein darüber diskutieren, wieso einer großen Masse von Menschen Spiele Spaß machen, bei denen der grafische Realismus einen großen Anteil am Erfolg zu haben scheint &#8211; welcher Ego-Shooter mit schlechter Grafik verkauft sich schon gut? Ob das sein muss, daß Blut spritzt und sich das Opfer am Boden wälzt, bevor es sich in Luft auflöst, um Platz zu machen für Frischfleisch. Oder ob andererseits in jedem CS-Spieler ein Robert S. oder Tim K. stecken muß und warum die alle nicht bewaffnet  in Schulen rumlaufen.</p>
<p>Kann man natürlich machen. Aber dann bitte nicht mit dem Vorwand, man habe hier Lösungen für diesen speziellen Fall zu bieten. Vielleicht ist jeder einzelne Amoklauf eine komplexe Welt von persönlichen sowie exopersönlichen Anteilen und einem extrem schwer entwirrbaren Knoten aus einem Interaktionsgeflecht zwischen beiden Welten. Vielleicht tun wir uns alle keinen Gefallen, wenn wir Amokläufe als ein spezifizierbares Problem ansehen, das dementsprechend mit ein paar speziellen Lösungsansätzen angegangen werden kann.</p>
<p>Vielleicht müssen wir damit leben, daß die Welt, die wir uns gebaut haben (und die ja ihre Vorteile hat!), ein Übermaß an Möglichkeiten eben auch für schlechte Vorhaben bietet. Vorsicht: ich sage nicht, daß Amokläufe in Kauf zu nehmen sind, da ja die meisten von uns keine falschen Schlüsse aus der Freiheit der Gesellschaft und ihrer Medien zieht (so nach dem Motto: es gibt aber auch Leute, die sich im Netz weiterbilden und das Geschäft wird ja auch durch das Internet belebt, das ist dann im Einzelfall Ansbach oder Erfurt eben Pech.).</p>
<p>Vielmehr müssen wir eine distanzierte Haltung zu den Grundlagen unserer Gesellschaft einnehmen. Es wäre sicher hilfreich, wenn wir Bildung, Politik, Medien und Erziehung zunächst beschreiben und dann bewerten würden. Das Problem ist, daß wir (im besten Fall!) beides gleichzeitig machen, und meistens nicht mal mehr das: irgendein Mensch liest was über Amoklauf und beginnt, bei web.de über CS zu diskutieren. Oder über Mobbing.</p>
<p>Früher nannte man das die Abkürzung des Denkvorganges. Anstatt es so zu machen:</p>
<p>1. Informationen beschaffen<br />
2. Informationen prüfen<br />
3. Informationen bewerten<br />
4. Sich über Informationen austauschen<br />
5. Neue Standpunkte prüfen und ggf. integrieren<br />
6. Standpunkte vertreten</p>
<p>macht man das heute einfach so:</p>
<p>1. Punkt 1. &#8211; 5. weglassen<br />
6. Standpunkte vertreten</p>
<p>Hm, naja, zumindest spart man so eine Menge Zeit. Fürs erste.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Online-Spiele sind Computerspiele, die über das Internet von vielen Millionen Spielern gleichzeitig ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><div><em>Online-Spiele sind Computerspiele, die über das Internet von vielen Millionen Spielern gleichzeitig und gemeinsam gespielt werden können. So können beispielsweise ein asiatischer und ein amerikanischer Spieler kooperativ den Spielverlauf durchspielen und gleichzeitig miteinander kommunizieren. Online-Spiele repräsentieren einen weiteren Schritt der Computerindustrie, virtuelle Alternativen zu herkömmlichen Spielmethoden zu schaffen. War Computerspielen bis dahin nur alleine möglich, so brachten Online-Spiele endlich die Möglichkeit auch gemeinsam den interaktiven Spielspaß erleben zu können.Allerdings hat diese neue Art des gemeinsamen Spielens auch seine Nachteile.</em></div>
<div><em> </em></div>
<div>Um die 10 Millionen Menschen aus aller Welt spielen heute ein Computerspiel namens World of Warcraft. Einige 10 Millionen Weitere beschäftigen sich in ihrer Freizeit mit Online-Spielen. World of Warcraft (kurz WoW) ist ein sogenanntes MMORPG, ein Massive Multiplayer Online Role Play Game, in dem der Spieler in die Rolle einer selbstkreierten Spielfigur schlüpft, die dann als Krieger,Zauberer,Jäger oder Schurke in einer fiktiven, interaktiven Fantasiewelt umherläuft, Monster tötet, sich virtuelle Belohnungen in Form von Gold und Erfahrungspunkten verdient, die man benötigt um eine höhere Stufe zu erreichen, und gemeinsam mit anderen Spielern über das Internet die detaillierten und scheinbar endlosen 3- dimensionalen Landschaften des Spielgebietes erkundet. Es fällt nicht schwer, sich für einige Stunden in diesem Paralleluniversum zu verlieren,ohne zu bemerken wie die Zeit verstreicht. Kein Wunder, sind doch die Möglichkeiten und Freiheiten dieser Welt nahezu unbegrenzt.Trinkt man in der Kneipe im nächsten Dorf ein virtuelles Bier, kauft man einem anderen Spieler eine neue, mächtige Waffe für den eigenen Charakter ab, oder geht man in der Wildnis ein paar vierköpfige Spinnen und gepanzerte Bären erlegen, um neue Aufgaben, Belohnungen, Rüstungen und Zaubersprüche freizuschalten, die den Kosmos dieser Welt noch erweitern,ohne dass ein Ende in Sicht zu sein scheint. World of Warcraft bietet dem Spieler all das, was ihm im realen Leben verwehrt bleibt, und gibt ihm für eine gewisse Zeit das Gefühl jemand Besonderes und Mächtiges zu sein.Für nur 14 Euro Spielgebühren im Monat. Praktisch der Eintrittspreis in eine Welt der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten.</div>
<p>Eine angemessene Vergütung  für eine solch vielfältige und spannende Alternative zur Realität, sagen jedenfalls die Spieler. Doch leider bezahlt man für World of Warcraft mehr als nur 14 Euro.Vorallem für Kinder und Jugendliche, die sehr früh mit solchen Medien wie World of Warcraft in Kontakt gebracht werden, sowohl durch Schulkameraden, als auch durch die Werbeindustrie, kann ein längerer Bezug zu diesen virtuellen Fantasie-Rollenspielen schnell gefährlich werden und zu einer starken Beeinflussung der Psyche führen. Sie sind noch zu jung um mit dem Gewaltpotenzial und der Irrealität der Online-Spielwelten umgehen zu können und verlieren schnell den Bezug zur Wirklichkeit. Unkontrollierte Aggresionen, Apathie und teilweise sogar Wahnvorsetllungen können die Folge sein.</p>
<p>Aber World of Warcraft ist nicht das einzige MMORPG mit Risiken und Nebenwirkungen. Gerade jetzt, im Zeitalter der Computer und des Internets ist es für Erziehungsberechtigte nicht leicht, den Zugriff ihrer Kinder auf diese Art von Videospielen zu kontrollieren. Eine Suchanfrage bei Google genügt, und Jugendliche kommen kostenlos an ähnliche, aber gebührenfreie MMORPGS. Hier ist noch nicht einmal der Kauf einer CD nötig, es gibt demnach auch keine Kontrolle der Altersbeschränkung. Ein einfacher Download genügt, und der Spielspaß im Universum Internet kann beginnen.</p>
<p>Ein weiteres Beispiel für ein Online-Spiel mit großem Gewaltpotenzial, allerdings brutal realistisch, ist der Ego-Shooter Counterstrike. Die Aufgabe des Spielers ist es, die anderen Spieler mit allerlei Arten von auch reell existenten Schusswaffen ums Leben zu bringen.Hierbei sieht er alles aus der Sicht seiner Spielfigur,was das ganze noch realistischer gestaltet. Jeder sogenannte Kill (Mord an einem Gegner) wird dem Spieler angerechnet. Wer mehr Kills hat,gewinnt das Match und wird mit Anerkennung und neuen Waffen belohnt.Viele Menschen sehen dieses Spiel als extreme Form der Gewaltverherrlichung. Die Spieler argumentieren, sie könnten in diesem Spiel ihre Aggressionen abbauen. Tatsächlich ist das Gegenteil der Fall. Es ist wissenschaftlich bewiesen, dass Spiele dieser Art die Gewaltbereitschaft und das Aggressionspotenzial des Spielers um einiges erhöhen können.</p>
<p>Abschließend ist zu sagen, dass trotz all dieser negativen Argumente ein Videospiel nur eine virtuelle Form der spielenden Beschäftigung ist, auch wenn es unsere Realität ebenso beeinflussen kann wie das Spielgeschehen selbst. Wer der Belastung eines solchen Spieles standhalten kann,dem steht es frei mit ihnen seine Freizeit zu verbringen, solange er sich der Risiken bewusst ist und mit ihnen verantwortungsbewusst umzugehen weiß. Letztendlich obliegt es jedoch allein den Erziehungsberechtigten zu entscheiden,ob dies auf ihren Sprößling zutrifft oder nicht. Bei ihnen liegt die Verantwortung für eine Generation, die unter einer stetigen kybernetischen Bedrohung aufwächst &#8211; der Computertechnik samt ihrer Vor- und Nachteile</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><blockquote><p><strong>Yesterday I got to see the new location of our church. It was really a nice place. We were situated at the 29th floor of Union building. The view was pretty cool. Not really anywhere near amazing, but the height just sort of makes it exhilirating for me.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Charles lent me his car since I had no other way to get there.<span style="color:#800000;"> *so sweet*</span></p>
<p>Anyway, after the service, Kuya Jojo, Marvin, JC, and Ken rode with me and I dropped them off at SM before I went to fetch Charles.</p>
<p>We headed for a hospital in the Manila area first to visit our friend&#8217;s dad. I&#8217;m just glad it&#8217;s just pneumonia. I hope he gets well soon enough.</p>
<address>SM Centerpoint.</address>
<address></address>
<address><span style="font-style:normal;">When Charles and I got there, we played DotA first. We just had two games because Kuya Jojo and Ken had to go already. So the rest of us decided to play Starcraft this time. It was Charles&#8217;s first time, but he kinda got the hang of it when he played Terran. It was weird because the bots kept attacking me all the time. (Maybe they figured I was the strongest link, wahaha!) We tried playing against each other then got tired of it and played Counter Strike. I enjoyed it very much.</span></address>
<address></address>
<address><span style="font-style:normal;">But I&#8217;m still looking forward to our next Starcraft game!</span></address>
<address></address>
<address><span style="font-style:normal;">We ate at Pizza Hut afterwards, but JC had to go home already. So it was just Charles, Marvin, I who ate together. I was really tired when we got home. Haha.</span></address>
<address></address>
<address><span style="font-style:normal;">Starcraft!</span></address>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>&#8230;är ordet för dagen.<br />
Ord som, hyffs, artig och respekt, har blivit omoderna både som använt praktiskt i språket och som daglig handling.<br />
Jag är 46 år, men känner mig som 97 år när talar om dessa begrepp, för ingen verkar bry sig&#8230; <em>Nonchalans!<br />
</em>För en tid sedan hade jag en &#8216;diskussion&#8217; med en 16-årig grabb, som var gäst på en fest hos granndottern. Initialt handlade det om att de var högljudda och fimpade på vår tomt (vi bor i radhus). Det hela trappades upp till att inblandning av polisen kom på tal. Då sa denna kille, &#8216;vadå?! Jag är ju inte straffmyndig, så då spelar det ju ingen roll!&#8217;&#8230; Ganska snabbt dog vår &#8216;dialog&#8217; efter det, men inte förrän jag åtminstone fått säga att hans ålder inte har något med ansvar och respekt att göra&#8230; Jag talade förstås för döva öron.<br />
Vad det kokar ner till är avsaknad av uppfostran och att ha en förebild att se upp till. En förebild som har starkare genomslagskraft än <a title="Benny och de stora grabbarna från 1971" href="http://etternos.blogspot.com/2009/08/benny-och-de-stora-grabbarna-den.html" target="_blank">&#8216;Benny och de stora grabbarna&#8217;</a>.</p>
<p>Denna 16-åriga kille kunde mycket väl vara min son (jag har själv en 13-årig dotter, så jag är inte bara teoretiker i ämnet&#8230;) och han hade definitivt inte kommit långt med den attityden i min familj. Men, kan det vara så att nonchalansen är utbredd även bland dessa tonåringars föräldrar? Som inte sätter gränser, visar tydligt på orsak-verkan-effekten. Men, som samtidigt visar att man som förälder är den trygghet och kärlek tonåringen behöver, när denne är sårbar och behöver stöd.</p>
<p><strong>Där </strong>kanske vi har kärnan! Barnen av idag får för mycket regler och bannor, men ingen kärlek, utan &#8216;uppfostras&#8217; enligt metoden klara-dig-själv. Inte undra på att resultaten blir som de blir&#8230; En förlorad generation. Som dessutom ska ta hand om oss äldre, när vi blir ännu äldre&#8230;?<br />
Not! Orka&#8230; <a title="Counter Strike, enligt Wikipedia" href="http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-Strike" target="_blank">Counter Strike </a>Online rules! Det är den prioriteringsverklighet de lever i. Som alltid drar jag <em>inte</em> alla över samma kam&#8230;</p>
<p>Avslutningsvis vill jag bara ge ett bildexempel på den vardagliga nonchalans som är så utbredd i samhället idag, när risken för upptäckt är minimal&#8230; <em>Orka!?&#8230; Eller?</em></p>
<div id="attachment_575" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 430px"><a href="http://lsandelin.wordpress.com/files/2009/09/dsc00320_2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-575" title="Orka knyta påsen...

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://www.downloadfreemmorpg.com/atlantica_online.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-top:3px;margin-bottom:3px;border:3px solid black;" title="Atlantica Online" src="http://www.downloadfreemmorpg.com/atlantica_online.jpg" alt="" width="340" height="250" /></a>There&#8217;s a lot of interesting games out there.  There&#8217;s also a lot of interesting stories to tell about those games.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, my creative juices aren&#8217;t flowing so much these days what with law school and all, so I&#8217;ve decided to take the easy way out and inform you all of the games I am currently playing&#8230;and here you go!</p>
<p>Currently Playing:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.getdota.com">Defense of the Ancients</a> (DOTA) &#8211; This is not a game per se but rather a custom game created within the Warcraft III game.  That being said, it is also the most popular game&#8230;I would dare to say it is more popular than the actual game of Warcraft III.  Good sites to learn about it are <a href="http://www.playdota.com">PlayDota</a> and <a href="http://www.dota-allstars.com">Dota-Allstars</a>.  You can also download the most recent map at <a href="http://www.getdota.com">GetDota</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://playatlantica.com">Atlantica Online</a> (AO) &#8211; Atlantica Online is my current MMO obsession.  I&#8217;m not usually a big fan of MMO&#8217;s since I can&#8217;t seem to stand the grind to max level, but AO is interesting because they make the grind pretty damn fun.  Think the battles of the Final Fantasy series (i.e. turn-based combat) along with the traditional setting of an MMO along with aut0-move (to quests) and the ability to control up to 9 characters&#8230;that my friends is an amazing game.  The game can be found at <a href="http://playatlantica.com">PlayAtlantica</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://store.steampowered.com/">Counterstrike 1.6</a> &#8211; Counterstrike reminds me of the good old days where friends could get together and create clans to play against other clans and trashtalk and gloat or just suck&#8230;it also reminds me of the great games of yesteryore such as Starcraft (not a big fan though), Diablo II (best game!!!), etc.  Hence, if you like FPS games and want to experience the best FPS game to have come out over a decade ago, go check out Counterstrike 1.6.  You can buy it through <a href="http://www.steampowered.com">Steam</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.DomainOfHeroes.com/?rpid=38998">Domain of Heroes</a> &#8211; My first post was about this game, and I&#8217;m still in love with this browser game.  Who can complain about this combination of Diablo II and Progressquest?  What other game can you legitimately play at work and still work?  You can play it <a href="http://www.DomainOfHeroes.com/?rpid=38998">here</a>.</p>
<p>So&#8230;those are the games currently being played by yours truly, go check them out!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Sorry I haven&#8217;t been as active lately on here talking about games that I have been playing.  Been busy or just haven&#8217;t played a game long enough to think up something to write about.  So after playing CS a couple times I figured I would write about that.</p>
<p>So I started off as I usually do, thinking that I am going to suck and just grabing a Galil or Famas and just running around shooting at people, but it turns out I haven&#8217;t really lost as much as I thought I had.  My first game back I placed in the top 5 on the team&#8230;<br />
<a href="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m142/dtrot55/cs_office0000.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m142/dtrot55/cs_office0000.jpg" title="In the top 5" class="alignleft" width="420" height="263" /></a><br />
This time around I have been just trying to stick to the weapons that aren&#8217;t really used much by others such as the Mac10, UMP, Famas, Glock and yes I still use the scout hehe.<br />
<a href="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m142/dtrot55/cs_office0005.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m142/dtrot55/cs_office0005.jpg" title="Hiding in the bushes" class="aligncenter" width="420" height="263" /></a><br />
But yeah I have actually surprised myself by still being some what decent after taking off over 5 months from the game.  Usually I will come back and suck for awhile.</p>
<p>I also have also found a couple of new servers that I like to play on now.  They are, of course, office only servers since I really don&#8217;t like most of the other maps in the game.  If you ip address just leave a comment and I will hit you up.</p>
<p><strong>Here are some more screen shots:</strong><br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Yo, it&#8217;s been a while since I posted.<br />
Well, I recently got CounterStrike Source, and I decided to mod it/skin it. It looks pretty cool now, except, my computer isn&#8217;t the best and I lag like hell on the lowest graphical settings. -_-<br />
Source is freaking fun online and also on LAN with my friends <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Aside from that, I kinda gave up on Flash for the current while <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif' alt=':P' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
I really cant be bothered to learn it, since I have so much stuff on (homework, assignments/projects, saxophone practice, noob pwning, KFC, other stuff). I don&#8217;t really go on Photoshop either, since I have nothing really to do. I play CA and CSS a lot now.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, do you know the Awesome Smiley? The internet is infected with this, and it looks really epic;<br />
<img alt="" src="http://driph.com/words/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/awesome.gif" title="Awesome Smiley" class="alignnone" width="300" height="300" /><br />
You&#8217;ve seen it SOMEWHERE right? It&#8217;s a suspicious looking smiley ^^.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Im Wiki der Piratenpartei findet sich jetzt eine <a href="https://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Spraylogo">kleine Anleitung</a>, wie man in Spielen wie Counterstrike und Team Fortress zeigen kann, dass man die Piraten unterstützt.</p>
<p>Spieler können dann per Tastendruck Wände im Spiel mit dieser Graphik taggen:</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 522px"><a href="https://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Spraylogo"><img src="https://wiki.piratenpartei.de/images/3/3e/Pp-spray-draft2.png" alt="Mal sehen, wie oft wir diese Graphik in der nächsten Zeit zu sehen bekommen." width="512" height="512" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Mal sehen, wie oft wir diese Graphik in der nächsten Zeit zu sehen bekommen.</p></div>
<p>Mitbekommen habe ich es natürlich erst, als <a href="http://www.golem.de/0908/68935.html">Golem</a> darüber berichtet hat. Bin im Moment einfach zu Ausgelastet mit Verwaltungssachen.</p>
