University of Calgary has a Video Game Library
The University of Calgary is opening a video game library.
They are claiming that it is for “academic research” – hahahaha
“The Interactive Digital Media Collection will help students learn in a whole new way, the university believes.
The University of Calgary is installing six PC stations through which to play games on newer consoles such as the PlayStation 3. The collection will also boast half a wall of retro games reaching back to the ’80s, many of which were all the rage before many U of C students were even born.
“Well, it certainly makes coming to the library cooler, and it’s one more excuse not to study during finals,” said student Tom Schlodder.
“It’s another distraction. I come to the library because it’s a place where I don’t have Nintendo or PlayStation or anything like that. It’s a place I come to work,” said student Chris McMillan.”
I guess people are going to be spending a lot more time at the library from now on!
