After reading the article “Can Video Game Cheating Be Prevented?” by Brian Bergstein and Matt Slagle , I smiled sitting in my office chair. Am I a cheat? I really never cheated on exams in high school, didn’t cheat much in college, didn’t have a game genie or shark, never could remember codes for Grand Theft Auto, then why am I am CEO of The Unknown Gamer, a company that aids in the advancement of MMORPG’s?

I represent people whom have lives and can’t spend all day questing or stabbing mobs. They earn income to support a life style of eventual spare time and playing video games.

There is a balance of power here of those “with time” and those “without time”. Most of our customers don’t have the time because they are busy keeping your computer networks up or representing you in court due to your speeding ticket because you chose to speed home to play WOW or maybe the heart surgeon that tells you that exercise is good for your high-blood pressure.

I love the fact Intel is moving into the market, watch the decline of their chips decrease. Should have left the cheats alone. They’ll band with the hackers, disgruntle underpaid programmers, and under appreciated network engineers, recruit a couple engineers in the break room, meet next to the water coolers between breaks and next thing you know, a new chip is out. And guess what? It works with all games and doesn’t report. As for recruiting, if the cheats can help the programmers get laid, “game over, you lose”.
