Thing 15--Gaming

I hate it when I sound like a stick-in-the-mud.  I read through a lot of blogs to see if there were others out there like me.    I am so relieved that I am not the only one of the 23 Things participants who doesn't personally like online games!  I tried to care, spent time on the Puzzle Pirates, even tried to slog through Doug Johnson's suggestions about SecondLife.  But I zoom right past bored to IRRITATED.  I have never been a fan of digital games, from pac-man on.  I have tried many times, read reviews of supposedly well-planned, interesting, HOTs-building games.  But they just don't hold my interest for even a few minutes.  It is great to make available to those who are interested.  To each her own.  The Wii games remind me of the Japanese game shows--how silly are you willing to look in public?  I don't mind if you want to,  just please don't make me.

Hey Ann! I love games online, but I must agree with your assesment of second life. I don't like it and I have not talked to any teens that want to play there either. Give my Warcraft any day!
