Very interesting concept.
A new Sitcom from Channel 4, focusing on the online lives of a group of MMO gamers.
As some of you know I've been playing ESO a lot lately, so the timing of this show is humorous in itself to me.
As a regular MMO gamer, let me tell you this: Dead Pixels is an accurate depiction of our lives in the virtual worlds on offer.
There's clearly been a lot of thought put into this show, and I can see the producers have taken the time to research in the real world, and have obviously spoken to real gamers.
In all, it makes for an interesting view on a common aspect of 21st century life, but while being common, an aspect of life that does not get much time in the public eye. After all, ask yourself seriously, how many times do you go down a street and think, "How many of these houses have someone who plays a game for 8 hours a day inside?"
I think it would be safe to assume that this isn't a topic on most people's minds when out & about.
I'm quite enjoying the show. I see elements of myself in it, (we all know that I spend the majority of my life in front of a computer), both positive factors and negative, but that just makes it all the more refreshing.
If you're in the UK, this is worth checking out.
I'll refrain from posting links, as it is very much an adult show, but I've given you the broadcaster and name of the show, so finding it shouldn't be hard.
