Crow Sister, thank you for that video.

Pixel Junk Inc puts out a Japanese game EDEN which is much like the that terraforming garden. It was featured on npr once.



A game called Little Big Planet gives tools to build scenes of semi 3D games invented by all the users. The users have made over a million games now and I have to admit some of them are surreal in a way I have never seen before in my life.
The narrator for Hitch Hikers guide to the Galaxy does the instruction portion of this game/software and it is entirely amusing.

I suppose real life games are getting more sophisticated as well.

I look at Google Maps and see them like a game. So someone has now turned Google Maps into a game called THE LAST GUY. Silly PRemise but 9 of our Planet's cities are the game board.
