Talk:Zoo hypothesis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Has anyone ever wondered about The Sims? Basically when playing The Sims, you can make you Sim sit at a PC and play The Sims. Maybe we're all Sims on someones PC! (Think about it!) Selphie 11:15, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC) **
- Sim City 2000 has a news story about a "mayor game" being released, and a student playing it being carted off to an asylum for saying things like "What if we're all just in a computer game?" CrossEyed7 02:24, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- I don't like messing in anothers work, but it strikes me strongly that the order of relevancy and exposition in this article is ass-backwards. The older references like Clarkes, should be cited first, etc. chronologically.
- I also doubt the list is anywhere near complete, you might want to fling the question to some long time editors like Judy Lynn DelRay at DelRay Books, and James Baen of Baen books. Both were editing when most us startrek watchers were still living at home before highschool.
- IIRC, The DelRays also compiled a history of sciencefiction that is encyclopedaic in scope. User:Fabartus || Talkto_FrankB 3 July 2005 02:04 (UTC)
- Probably should limit it to especially poignant examples of 'zoo' to illustrate the point. I'd suggest that starcraft, for example, is excessive. I had half a mind to put in Homeworld as a doomed Zoo.~~
- What about a blerb that discusses how south park portrayed this hypothesis as earth being an elaborate reality show for an alien race. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.226.107.41 (talk) 03:39, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
