mark. reality

We all have our own reality, place in our mind where we can escape form the world. Some refuse to believe in such a thing, others are dependent on this, and for others, the border between reality and their personal world are so blurred that they forget which one is actually real.

Video games recreate this by producing games that player can get involved with and fully control, either the characters, the environment or even sometimes the story line it self.

The Sims have always been a game based on immersion, where the player can fully create characters, homes and neighborhoods , even entire families.

EA games, the producer of the Sims, have tried to make their games more realistic yet still keep a sort of boundary between the game and reality. They have made the characters behave like humans, have the same needs and activities, yet they speak an incomprehensible language.

The movie matrix was based on the idea that our reality, may not be reality at all.

This has actually scared people, many did believe that it was true.

But many who actually weren't as gullible thought about it. Some concluded that it wasn't real, but some are still thinking about it.

Though this is something we have always wondered and as we become more and more dependent on computer technology, there is a risk that we may be controlled by computers. This may sound like fantasy, but while some scientist focus on creating their robotics, others are truly worried and see this as a potential threat.
