"Ever get the feeling that life's a game with changing rules and no
clear sides, one you are compelled to play yet cannot win? Welcome to
gamespace. Gamespace is where and how we live today. It is everywhere
and nowhere: The main chance, the best shot, the big leagues, the only
game in town. ...Playing against the machine on a game console, we
enjoy the only truly level playing field - where we get ahead on our
strengths or not at all."
- McKenzie Wark, Gamer Theory
