-if you look from a programmers perspective.. its like only 3 hours away from being unable to distinguish from.. a real basketball game..."
son: "i know."
(me!): "...and then.. like from an emotional, psychological perspective.. how crazy easy it is to get involved as if it is a real basketball game.. all the same investment and emotions.. reactions.."
son: "yeah"
(me!): "I was talking to your grandpa about it.. the programming"
son: "what did he say?"
(me!): "he said.. 'That is all so far over my head!'.
Son: -laughs a little.
(me!): " I guess... well its kinda like getting lost in a movie.. the same thing.. you know its a movie, but you let yourself have the same reactions as if it were real.. or, you don't ~let~ yourself.. you just do have the same reactions..
son: "yes. its like a movie that you get to control. -that's why they call it a video game."
(me!): "oh."
