i don't have a lot to say about Faceball 2000

Such a wonderful game about societys fascination with violence. The cyberspace setting serves the purpose of housing a deathmatch where everyone is represented by a smiley face. While they roam endlessly through the bland and uneventful maze, the smiley faces always keep a smile on their faces. It doesn't matter to them how boring things get as long as they can live out their realistic murder fantasies. While the game doesn't seem like it's condemning violence in media, It instead seems like it's acknowledging it as it's only human nature for us to get excited over something that we cannot do. In cyberspace, anything is possible and even if primitive, the process of technology becoming more and more advanced will always excite some people no matter how primitive it is. In a way, Faceball can almost be compared to modern day VR technology. Just take a look at Mark Zuckerberg and his all of his rich dick suckers buying into the "metaverse". The metaverse is this massive leap in technology, but since it's still in its primitive stages, it's somewhat humorous to watch and laugh at these rich millionaires getting excited and happy over the idea of something as basic as legs. However, getting excited over something so simple isn't so far away from Faceball and the excitement of simulated violence in cyberspace.

Inexplicably long and tedious but in a way that resembles Dante's Inferno, forever climbing deeper and closer to what you hope is the bottom.

This game sucks, but I love it for some reason
