Uneducational Gaming

This website became of great interest to me. Peggy and I are creating a game on peer mediation: how to solve conflicts. This is a great skill in life. Its a course on relationships, which everyone knows students should leave high school wtih. Anyway, as I was looking for websites on the topic, I came across this one. http://mediationblog.blogspot.com/2005/09/seeing-ourselves-conflict-and.html

It talked about a game that is in the works called Bully. This game is by the same makers as Grand Theft Auto. This is a great picture that the game site, http://www.rockstargames.com/bully/, includes:

How much better can it get. Realistic avitars, battling it out over the school. Kids are not really like this... That is why a game like Bully is great. Just like it is a rarety that kids participate in grand theft auto. Does it happen? Yes, but the game is intriguing because it is a GAME.

The bluring lines of reality and non-reality get people really upset.

Now, Peggy and I want to take this realism, attractiveness of a game and bring it to something good. Wish us Luck.
