It's hard to believe, but this college course is every gamer's dream come true.
...and it's happening at Berkeley, no less.
But I guess I shouldn't be so surprised. After all, it's the school that generated the Una-Bomber and have naked students cavorting around the campus.
It's mighty cool though. This means that gaming is being more accepted by main stream culture finally. It's not just for geeks and nerds anymore.

A friend of mine showed me this on a different site where they broke down the lesson plan. I laughed when I saw lesson 8 (or whatever they called it) harass. Never bothered picking up that skill because I'm into UMS. AI LURKER DDDDDDDDD.

Satchmo, gaming hasnt been for geeks the last 3/4 years anymore, just imagine gaming in concert and suck events. Also, it gets more and more media attention, reviews in news papers etc. Makes sense, since the industry is bigger then the music and film industry combined.

Eh. I got so good at starcraft it got boring. That's what clans do for you.
You join a clan when you're good enough, then you train against the Elite. And you become elite yourself. I went from noob to almost pro in about 1.5 years.
But then it just got to the point where i would just mess with people i was playing against online.
I'd go kill off all their workers, go back to my base, keep an patrol around the map and their area, then just sent in all 150 units.

Soon, education is going to be a thing people blame for violence, sex, and drugs.
First it was Rock'n'Roll
Then it was Video Games
Soon it will be Education
Jack Thompson must be having a painful shit right now.
