Here is another whole new level of proposal, actually building a game from scratch for the sole purpose of asking for someone's hand. That's a new level altogether, romantic indeed. Marchaka, a Redditor, has a pretty ideal girlfriend a gamer would want to have in Michele, as the two shares a serious love of video games. That made him think and got then wheels on his head thinking when he decided to pop the question. Marchaka used VX Ace a $70 role-playing game maker and then he built Michele's Quest. Michele's Quest is a Final Fantasy-style title that consists of four acts and four boss battles. After successfully completing each act, the player, Michele, Marchaka's girlfriend, is rewarded with an image showing the location of a real-world key. Sitting next to the computer Michele played on was a chest with four locks. When she arrive at the fourth was unlocked, there was a note reading "turn around," where she saw Marchaka on bended knee with the ring. Not to any surprise, she said "yes." Marchaka has only little programming experience. It took him over 160 hours to build the game, which is filled with in-jokes, humor and loads of video game references. And lest you think Marchaka spent the four hours, it took Michele to complete the game standing over her shoulder. He even managed to plan ahead for that unforeseen event as well. "We had some guests over and so I tried to downplay it by cooking a big dinner for everyone," he said. "I spent most of my time in the kitchen but how the place is designed I can see the computer from there. The guests pulled up chairs next to her and chimed in with commentary and jokes…took any tension out of it until the big moment." Marchaka's proposal has resemblance and can make you think back to Gary Hudston's

BLACK HAWK REVIEWS - ONLINE GAMES: SPACEWAR! REMAKE AFTER 50 YEARS MIT students celebrated the golden anniversary of Spacewar! - which is one of the first video games in history - by recreating it on a computer that can be handled on the palm of your hand. Four students of MIT began creating the game Spacewar! during their free time in 1961 and finished it in February 1962. It was built on the Digital Equipment PDP-1, a computer unit around the size of an ordinary refrigerator. The game features two spaceships attempting to shoot each other down, with one of the spaceships under the control of the player. Massachusetts' engineering students showcased their work at the museum of MIT. This process of turning a 50-year old game to a modern one is almost likened to digital archeology. It must be difficult to port it into a modern programming language for it is very low-level considering the time it was created. In addition to that, it used a lot of tricks specific to the machine it was first built on due to the limitations they had on the software. The students transferred the software to the Arduino platform, a microprocessor the size of handheld gadget. The game was not really meant for commercial purposes but only for the enjoyment of the creators. In fact, majority of Americans barely had access to a PDP-1 at that time. During the 1970′s it became a commercial success when it appeared in arcade platforms and personal gaming consoles like the Atari 2600.

Aside from playing WoW, Breivik was also into Elder Scrolls, Modern Warfare, Warhammer and Dragon Age. According to him, he spent all his time playing in the months prior to his July 22 attacks.

It should also be noted that he used terms from the game in the 'manifesto' he wrote. According to Breivik, playing war games was only to hide his terrorist plans. He added that he devoted almost one year in playing games to reward himself. 3 Now, police are trying to investigate if Breivik has been in touch with other gamers or if he belongs to a player group through obtaining information from game manufacturers. This is because certain information show that he has been logged onto 2 computer units at the same time - Breivik might have paid others to play on behalf of him. 4 WoW is the most popular role-playing game in the world, boasting of over 10 million registered users (70,000 of which are in Norway). People are now anxious to know what possible factors could have affected Breivik and twisted his mindset because experts have already warned of the possible damaging effects from spending much time on playing computer games.
