Not often do I find other articles worth to post on my own blog, but this one definitely has a place here.

This past weekend, I downloaded “Pac-Man Championship Edition” on my roommate’s Xbox. I played the heck out of that sucker.

My other roommate invited me to learn, and perhaps play a game of Go. I told him I wasn’t interested.

And that’s when I realized something. When I play games – video or boardgame – I play games that are simple, repetitive, enjoyable, and don’t require a whole lot of mental processing. My roommate plays games that require deep thought, strategy, complexity, and practiced skill.
