Re: Why we play games?
Testosterone.
That's a good one word answer for most gamers!
Seriously though interesting article.. For me most of the time its just a good fit of competition I need to get out of my system.
I read this one today too which I saw on Slashdot:
"On the 10th anniversary of Deep Blue's triumph over Garry Kasparov in chess, a prominent philosopher of mind asks, What did the match mean?"

Nice Article. She really inspired herself.
I play games because they distract me. Especially RPG they take me on a whole new level. Look at it this way women love soap opera (Ugly Betty anyone??) in an RPG its almost the same you can say RPG are like the mens soap opera. But thats just my opinion. I took RPG because don't know about you guys but playing FF7 when Sephiroth killed Aeris I got so mad that when I finished the game when Cloud does the Omnislash to him I was like moving my hands killing him also. hehe
