So I was digging around on Net Flix earlier today in the documentary section and I came across a movie called, "Second Skin." Checked out the synopsis and oddly enough it was about online games (MMORPG's in particular) such as WoW and Ever Quest etc. I suggest watching this movie to anyone who plays or has played an online game.
This movie made me reflect on past happenings in game and real life. How could a game change someones life, whether it would be for better or worse. Both sides were shown in this documentary, and it has definitely made me think differently about MMORPG's.
If you've seen this movie or haven't what are your thoughts on online games, good or bad.

I don't have netflix.
I definitely am skeptical of any "documentary" about gaming. It probably gets everything wrong, just like all other "coverage" of the hobby. But that just makes me want to check it out even more out of curiosity.

Yeah, when ever the media gets a hold of something like this its usually blown out of proportion.
