There are a lot of great aspects to multiplayer gaming from a society standpoint. There’s study after study that shows what a positive impact gaming has had on most people. However I have experienced, as I’m sure a lot of you have, the flip side to interactions with strangers. I’ve been called every name in the book, I’ve been personally berated, had my 4 year old daughter insulted, had people attempt to post my private information such as address and phone. This is really nothing new and because the anonymity of the internet and inability of most users to stop such harassment. I decided to do a little digging and try to define this type of behavior a little better. The medical definition of what these people are is called a sociopath.

Lots of people are abuzz with the recent announcement of Valve's sequel to the sleeper hit Portal. Personally, I'm very excited because I've always been a fan of the Half-Life universe and portal is no exception. I would recommend playing the game, it's a relatively short play through, if you haven't already. Despite the short game its extremely clever and ties into the Half-Life universe in quite a few areas. Did you know Aperture Science was originally a manufacturer of shower curtains?

I’ve been playing first person shooter games for a long time, most people don’t realize it’s probably my favorite type of game to play. Mostly because it’s fallen by the wayside and I’m most often interacting with people in RPG style multiplayer games. Now with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 topping my current play list I’ve decided to share some wisdom I’ve picked up from over ten years experience playing first person shooters. Rules that seem to transcend most games. Survival rules for beginners that will keep you topping the charts in battle.

This weekend a friend and I got together for some good old fashioned cooperative gaming. Pounding on his door I woke dragged him out of bed at 7 PM and went out to pick up provisions at the grocery store. He was still a bit drunk off box wine and pretty adamant about how great it is however I picked up nice 12 pack of Red Stripe and hit the local video store to see what game we could grab. The decision was pretty quick when we spotted Army of Two: The 40th Day.
