I met an alpaca farmer named Jason Cody who works for Chimera Ranch in Bennett. Chimera Ranch is a company that also was at the Christkindl market downtown over the holidays. They sure do get around! For adults, they sell hats, scarves, and slippers. For big pets they sell dog beds and for small pets they sell little woven baskets. For kids, they sell wool stuff ed animals. All of these products are hand crafted with alpaca wool. When asked what his favorite product is, Jason responded “My favorite product is our wool hats because the hats are warm, soft, and unique.” This is true because I have collected six alpaca stuffi es over the years, and they are all soft and fl uff y.

  • Bitto and I Decided to Make a List of the Top Ten Video Games of All Time. We
    Bitto and I decided to make a list of the top ten video games of all time. We quickly realized that this was a huge undertaking and would therefore require a good deal of thought. In order to get the top ten games, we made a large list of games that could theoretically make the list (roughly 70 games) and then eliminated games one by one until we were left with ten. Near the end of this list we had to have discussions about each elimination because it got increasingly difficult as we neared our top ten. The last couple games are included as honorable mentions. Once we had our top ten, Bitto and I decided we should do this right and make ten categories that signify a good game and then rank each of our games 1 through 10 for each category where only one game can be assigned each number, ten being the highest. Once we had all of our numbers we would average them to determine the order of our games based on our ten categories. Let me explain what we considered for each category: Story: How good is the story? Is it well thought out? Interesting? Predictable? Hero(es): How cool or interesting is/are the hero(es) for each game? Villain(s): How cool or interesting is/are the villain(s) for each game? Design: How well-designed is the game? How well does everything fit with everything else? Are there conflictions among items? Are things repetitive? Is it balanced? Depth: How deep is the game? How much does it offer? Music: How good/iconic is the music for the game? Difficulty: How hard is the game? Replayability: How often can you replay the game? How good is the multiplayer (if applicable)? Following: How popular is the game and how many people play it? Overall: This is essentially our individual rankings of the games The results follow: Honorable Mentions: Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Super Mario Bros.

    The Evolution of First Person Shooters An Honors Thesis (HONRS 499) By Joseph McKay Thesis Advisor Adrienne Jones I Ball State University Muncie, Indiana December 2003 December 21, 2003 Abstract: Video games have become an integral part of popular culture over the past decade. Gaming is surpassing TV and film as a favorite pastime. Last year the gaming industry made 9.4 billion dollars in revenue. Despite the enormous draw of video games, they aren't given the prestige and academic attention that film receives. This thesis covers the evolution of the First Person Shooter from game genre conception to its present state in order to demonstrate the validity of studying the video game medium. Since its beginning in 1992, the First Person Shooter has had a tremendous impact on game development. The genre has consistently been at the forefront of cutting edge technology and continues to revolutionize the way games are played and viewed. Acknowledgments: I would like to thank my advisor, Adrienne Jones for her constant support and advising throughout the duration of this thesis. Without her help I would have never been able to put my passion into writing. I would also like to thank my friends Evan, Amanda, Stephanie, David and, Jefffor sticking by, dealing with my gaming rants, and imparting their knowledge.
