fugitive247/video games

This community is all about games- all games all the time. Its scope covers everything from bleeding edge consoles to MMORPGs to even traditional board and card games. There is a growing online flash games arcade complete with tournaments, monthly prizes, and even a fun forum points store.

The message boards cater to gamers of all types, including developers, modders, and MAME enthusiasts. And when the discussions aren't centered around some aspect of gaming, there's plenty of engaging, civilized, and often thought-provoking conversation on other subjects.

If you're tired of not being able to figuratively swing a console controller without smacking at least two dozen rude, clueless otaku, then this is your new home. Of course registration is free. What are you waiting for? When you sign up, tell them that fugitive247 sent you!

Flash adaptation of a Tetris clone. Object: delete all rows both horizontally and vertically between the blinking blocks. There are two timers. First is a numeric counter for the overall gameplay. Second is a bar for the individual piece in play. The player's mouse controls the placement of each piece. The space bar is used to rotate the pieces. My best score this run was low 7K. Now that I've figured it out- and was nice enough to post it here, any challengers? Screen shot of your score for bragging rights (in case it's not listed on the site's current top scores). ;oD

From the page: "Priced at $584, the [Smart BrainGames] system is built on NASA technology that used video games and neurofeedback to train pilots to stay alert during long flights and calm during emergencies. It is compatible with Sony's PlayStation 1 and 2 consoles as well as Microsoft's Xbox, which video game-crazed kids are quite familiar with."

"Families generally pay $2,000 to $2,500 for a six-month supervised program with one of CyberLearning's [sparse network of] licensed health professionals trained on the Smart BrainGames system."

"Traditional treatments... are often covered by health insurance, while neuro-feedback usually is not."

The fugi sayeth: Further research from unbiased professionals is warranted. NASA locales not withstanding, I have a difficult time trusting so much as a computerized egg slicer when the majority of its practical applications have been rooted in the logistical strongholds of Geo. W. and Jeb Bush.
