Second Life - The Prequel

Yeah, I was on the beta-test team for that one. The physics engine sucks and the end dude is way too hard.

Hahahahaha. No kidding! When I heard the buzz about Second Life, and the economies involved I decided to see what it was all about. After about 10 minutes, I didn't get it, and went out and rode my bike. I did notice a magazine I read at work, I think Popular Mechanics that has a house or place or whatever at Second Life.

That throws me into a Kafkaesque existential crisis. Shouldn't it be so that First Life is either never or always in beta?

If you ask me it's just one level and it just keeps getting harder and faster.

I thought it was still in development.

Funnier than the site itself is comment #16 in the comments section.
