1. I laughed my ass off...
I know a good handful of people who take the online gaming WAAAY to seriously...but I know, if I every played them, I would get sucked in just as bad...:)

The episode tonight reminded me of the first time I saw my bud waldo play Everquest, he would walk around, and little hordes of like 4-7 players would be running around killing people...and waldo lasted about 3 minutes tops, the first 10 times he logged on, because people would kill him off so quickly.

Same with Diablo online, I played that for about an hour, but I would get killed by every single pc that came near me...

2. its not.... that addictive
especially not for the logical democratic folks... yah ive played world of warcraft(WoW) not "officialy" but ive played it in an extremly low cost way(wink wink) for like a year, it can get pretty repetitive as the episode implied.

3. not that addictive?
In my experience, it is pretty addictive...a bud of mine in Seattle plays Halo online for hours everyday, ignoring his other household duties, my bud waldo is deeply involved with Everquest, as well as my brother sammy...The looks they all had on their faces, remind me of the fat/white guy who was killing the boyz tonight on SP...

6. it depends on the personality of the person
these games will either get you hooked or get you bored. ive played halo and WoW as well as Diablo 2 and Diablo 1, all can be addictive to people with certain intrests, but my intrests arn't that strong

7. Dude, that was uber pwnage!
Actually bever even heard of the game, but I know that they exist. I noticed that the keyboard/mouse usage to be very similar to Doom/Wolfenstein. I pretty much limit my online gaming to poker and backgammon.

Great episode. Just seeing the characters inside the game talking was funny as hell. Erik's little brother: I poo pooed my pants. And another character standing completely frozen because the kid controlling him is leafing through a Playboy. "OMG, we lost Clyde!"
