Addicting Games (January 2012)
In "Hacking Happiness," you read something that might have surprised you--voluntary hard work, full of unnecessary obstacles, makes us really, really happy. In other words, people love games. How do you feel when you're playing a game? Stressed? Satisfied? Psychotic? And what kinds of games do you like to play?

I feel relaxed, I like to play club penguin.

I like to play Globs of Doom on my Wii because it is challenging yet easy.
(January 9, 2012 - 8:21 pm)
May I ask how something can be challenging yet easy?

When I play a game I feel relaxed and happy. I play a mix of games that get me up and moving, and games like Legend of Zelda.

I play Scrabble sometimes, but I'm not very good at it. My brother completely KILLED me with "quipster" in Superscrabble, which has quadruple word scores. He got it on a double letter score, double word score, triple letter score, and quadruple word score. He got something like 150 points. I had only short (yet imaginative) words like zein, naan, girdle, and gorp. Yes, they are all real words.

I played a computer game that seemed fun at the time. After I stopped, it just sucked, but I felt like I had spent so much time on it that it would be wasting my time not to play again.

When I play games I feel satisfied - especially when I complete a level. My favorite games are Mario & Sonic at the London Olympics and de Blob 2.

Hackers are heroes, or can be VILLIANS! MWAHAHAHAHA!
(February 3, 2012 - 6:35 pm)
I think that if you really hack bad, then you ruin the game ex. never-ending bullet bill.
But, otherwise,hackers = heros! Come forth, hero hackers!
