[Drab Emordnilap]

I've never won the arcade version of Tetris, Pac-Man or Wonder Boy (until emulators in which you can save the game) and I had plenty of fun playing them as a kid. And I never beat my sister in law in chess (NEVER, she is regional champion and I'm just a casual player) and I can still have fun playing with her.

And the best game in the world has no winner or loser.

Then you are obviously one of those people who like more difficult games than I do. What's the best game in the world?

I think he means doing it.

Man, he/she is under-aged, so probably never heard of that .

I don't think that falls under most reasonable definitions of the word game, which usually implies some sort of competition.

It's a cooperative game! 

[soulnet]

It's a cooperative game! 

True, and it can also be a solitaire .

BTW, if there are more than 2 people, I can imagine some competition going on. If you see newly born pups, they usually compete for getting to the breasts and being fed.

Nope, a cooperative game requires an adversary.

Wait until you get older.

I'd love to know how old you think I am.   It's always amusing when my students try to guess and get nowhere near the mark.

No, that's not an adversary.  Parenting, on the other hand, definitely is a cooperative game.

You can always be older. And its pretty hard to guess just by seeing your picture in an Alchemist disguise.

You mean cooperating with your co-parent or with your children? It seems that everyone has more or less the same goal, despite no-one noticing a lot of the time.

An interesting way of looking at things!  I dare say sometimes the adversary is the kids, and sometimes the co-op is with everyone and life itself is the adversary.

it's like BSG. after the sleeper phase aka puberty there's a traitor.

There are always STDs. But your partner may not enjoy it so much if you treat it like a tower defense game.

[dondon151]

No, that's not an adversary.

Depends on whether you want to have the fun without the kids...

I know of him, at least! He is pretty funny. I liked him when he hosted ESC.

[Qvist]

The whole discussion reminded me of this.
