Competitive Gaming
Hello out there, My delve into competitive gaming has been less than successful. I didn’t dedicate myself to a single game so I never got really good at any of them.

How A.I. can be used to take MMOs to the next level
Hello out there, I absolutely love the idea of Artificial Intelegence improving in games. Right now A.I. implementation in games is in its infancy.

The past and future of MMOs
Hello out there, MMOs are Massively Multiplayer Online games. I’ve been playing them since I was around fifteen (1994).

MUDs being my first experience in the MMOContinue reading “The past and future of MMOs”
