Book review for "Extra Lives" by Tom Bissell. I wouldn't say that "beat Red Dead Redemption" should be on the list, but I don't disagree with adding Bioshock.

This guy isn't the only gamer who has tried this, either. There was a World of Warcraft player who was doing it as well -- he even equipped a fishing rod as his "weapon" so his weapon skill would remain low. I *think* this is the player's blog: http://pacifistundeadpriest.blogspot.com/

I'd be very interested to play a level such as those myself. Quantifying "restraint," "remorse," or "laying down your arms" seems like a particularly tough assignment, though.

That's funny -- I just had a student mention everyday life mechanics one could turn into a game, "like road construction or traffic patterns," that he's interested in somehow doing his end-of-course project on. :)
