At a Traditional Media-Meets-Gaming seminar series I attended the other week, where I did one of the worst presentations I've ever done, the keynote speaker argued that he knew multi-channel cable TV had hit the big time when he heard a stand-up comic making jokes about it in his act. Gaming, he said, will be acknowledged as mainstream entertainment when jokesters start taking the mick out of it in public.
So, heard any good gaming jokes lately? The only one I can think of is in Spaced. During one classic episode, main guy Tim has been playing Resident Evil all night and starts seeing zombies...everywhere.
Hey, I never said I could tell 'em.
