Updated: 04 Apr 2014

Assassin's Creed? Great games. Awesome storyline. Uncannily accurate about the future of techno-genetics. Little did Ubisoft know when they released the first Assassin's Creed in 2007 that the Animus project adventures of Desmond and Altair would successfully predict the future of scientific research in 2013. So, is it possible to pass memories down between generations as depicted in Assassin's Creed? Watch, dear Theorists, and learn! Game Theory, part of the Game Theorist network.

Game Theory: Why Final Fantasy is Anti-Religion

Order: Reorder
Duration: 11 min 8 sec
Updated: 04 Apr 2014

Final Fantasy games feature a lot of religious symbolism. But if you look closely, those references to religion actually form a very interesting pattern; the Final Fantasy games are actually against organized religion...and even the concept of God himself. So today, we're looking at the Final Fantasy series, including Final Fantasy VI, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy Legend to see just how this popular series deals with religious issues.

This week on Game Theory: Metroid is known for great power-ups, but its most famous has to be the morph ball. So how does Samus fit into such a tiny space? We're looking at Metroid, Super Metroid, and Metroid Prime to get the definitive answer, and let me tell you, it has nothing to do with Samus being in her sexy Zero Suit.

Game Theory: Why the Official Zelda Timeline is Wrong

Updated: 04 Apr 2014

All video games share one universe. But not all video game universes are the same. The official Zelda timeline released by Nintendo proves it. But when is a Zelda timeline NOT a Zelda timeline? When it justifies every other bizarre video game easter egg and cameo the gaming industry has developed.

Updated: 04 Apr 2014

Game Theory (ECON 159) We introduce Game Theory by playing a game. We organize the game into players, their strategies, and their goals or payoffs; and we learn that we should decide what our goals are before we make choices. With some plausible payoffs, our game is a prisoners' dilemma. We learn that we should never choose a dominated strategy; but that rational play by rational players can lead to bad outcomes. We discuss some prisoners' dilemmas in the real world and some possible real-world remedies. With other plausible payoffs, our game is a coordination problem and has very different outcomes: so different payoffs matter. We often need to think, not only about our own payoffs, but also others' payoffs. We should put ourselves in others' shoes and try to predict what they will do. This is the essence of strategic thinking. 00:00 - Chapter 1. What Is Strategy? 02:16 - Chapter 2. Strategy: Where Does It Apply? 02:54 - Chapter 3. (Administrative Issues) 09:40 - Chapter 4.

Every video game shares the same universe, and that universe just so happens to be the real world. It's video games in real life! By tracing a path through video game crossovers, Game Theory proves that Kratos could appear in Starcraft alongside characters from Super Mario RPG without breaking canon. Just watch out for metroids!

Polybius is the biggest video game urban legend. An arcade game that brainwashes its players with subliminal messages. Most write it off as a glitchy version of the Atari game Tempest, but the CIA has a secret they don't want you to know about: MK Ultra. Brainwashing, mind control, LSD. Get ready 'cause this is some CreepyPasta served up Game Theory style!

Just how fast can Sonic the Hedgehog actually run? VSauce3 recently examined the "Science of Sonic," but their conclusions were all based on Sonic running faster than the speed of sound. Based on evidence from the Sonic video games, can this SEGA mascot really break the sound barrier? Today, Game Theory takes its second look at the Sonic franchise.

When two people are trying to make a deal -- whether they're competing or cooperating -- what's really going on inside their brains? Behavioral economist Colin Camerer shows research that reveals just how little we're able to predict what others are thinking. And he presents an unexpected study that shows chimpanzees might just be better at it than we are. (Filmed at TEDxCalTech.)

Purchase the full mp3 at http://www.limitlessness.com. Game Theory is a three part recording, containing two substantial channels (60 and 90 minutes) and a brief questions and answers section (21 minutes). This was a pivotal recording for Story as it was the first in a new level of expression of SunSon. Game Theory is also notable for being the advanced message that pre-paved (preceded by one day) the core message 'Your Dream Starts Here' which is Story's most popular broadcast ever. In the part 1 channel SunSon speaks about letting go of the individuated self in order to open yourself to the wider, multi-dimensional, collective experience of Self. Opening to this multi-perspective is to let go of fear and realize how life is truly a game that we are all playing. In this realization you step out of the difficult experience of the game playing you, into the joyful experience of playing the game with consciousness. SunSon explains how the realization that you are playing a game is, at its core, the separation of beingness and identity. Are you ready to experience the perspective of your wider, collective Self? In the part 2 channel SunSon gives a surprising hypnotism analogy to explain how all the reality games that make up All That Is emerged from the original source state. This gives a powerful realization of how profound it is that Source continual breaks itself down into the illusions that make up our universe. The idea of life as a game is then taken to the next level as SunSon uses the idea of computer/console gaming and the virtual worlds it creates to help explain a variety of mind-blowing multi-dimensional concepts, such a game saves creating probable selves as well as other versions of you that you can meet within the game! Teleportation and time travel spells create similarly revealing insights into the potential of playing the Earth game. The channel then ends with SunSon, taking the opportunity to use the strong multi-dimensional framework that has arisen through the message, giving a powerful discourse on the great awakening and shifting of dimensions taking place on Earth at the moment, as well as the meaning and mastery of fear and suffering. The way in which gaming analogies are ingeniously used to convey multi-dimensionality has made the Game Theory channels stand-out favorites for many. Game Theory was voted the 4th most popular recording by Freedom Circle members in March 2013. Join the free newsletter, download free mp3s, and purchase the full mp3 at http://www.limitlessness.com.

Top Roots, Game Theory

This is a game
I'm your specimen
You've got to let me know baby
So I can go, I'd have to fake it
I could not make it
You could not take it
Yeah, where I'ma start it at, look I'ma part of that
Downtown Philly where it's realer than a heart attack
It wasn't really that ill until the start of crack
Now it's a body caught every night on the Almanac
Rock bottom where them cops gotta problem at
Where them outsiders getting popped for they wallet at
I had nothin but I made somethin outta that
Now I'm the first out the limo like Charlie Mack
From 215 it's him the livest one
And he's representin Philly to the fullest
Blacks the realest
You can't touch him and not for nothin
If you bout hip hop then you gots to love it
If not then fuck it
I'm still handlin
Smokin more reefer than Redman and them damaging MC's
And my name's Rick Gees you endangered species
For what I do I'm about to up the fees
I'm paperchase motivated I ain't the one to play with
These cats get set ablaze
You can't have it y'all way but I'd rather parlay
Just smoke og and get cabbage all day
The way thought play causes your main thing to say
Your style so splendid you bout your business
You arousing my interests
You sharper than a Shogun
You know the way it go, huh, game know what I'm talkin bout
Hus, that's short for hustlers
We Black Inc Raw Life productions
Tryin to find our spota amongst the ruckus
And be sucker free, flea chumps and busters
Man yeah, Get 'em hus, get 'em hus, get 'em hus
Hey yo I'm tryin to get it at any cost so it's no remorse
When I'm blastin off like you been askin for it
When Black step in the door all hats is off
Your hands up in the air goin back and forth
I'm about ready for a classic massacre
I'll make it hotter than when Shaft in Africa
Jump outta a black Porshe huffin a fat cigar
Night ridin on 'em like my last name Hasselhoff
Voted unlikely to succeed cause my class was full
Of naysayers, cheaters and thieves
All it gave me was a good enough reason to leave
And put the writing on the wall for y'all to read it and weep
Cause I'm the force of the Lord, the rage of hell
You'd rather head for the hills and save yourselves
My Man rip drums like He ringin the bells
The King of the Realm you seen Him do His thing in a film
Come on
Dreams when M16's with infrared beams
Blowin up presidents' cribs with cans of kerosene
Highjack the limousine with a strategic routine
Then blast my enemy, head for the Caribbean
Militant guerilla camp is ready for war
Lay your corner face down, place down your jewels cash and four four
When I score prepare for toture
Fuck around and make your town Warsaw
I'm from Illadel the land where the killas dwell
My technique is to ambush you guerilla style
My instinct is of a killer whale bang you up from head to toe
With lyrics I pack like a nine millimal
My types subliminal mentality switched to criminal
Importing heroin internash from Senegal
A soldier takes a stripes from a general
Used the mike of iron or lead

Pulse active, man, I'm a master mind, Backhand, Backgammon with a faster mind. Game Theory, Yodel let my soldiers hear me, So solid, you better metal gear me.
Steady gamer, you're a lamer, Need a second life just to get you some fame, huh? Bottle'a champagne held by the power, Buy another one when the clock strikes the hour.
Get drunk, and slide up in the limo, Typin' on the Skype, yeah talkin to the camo. By the time nerd life on the chorus, Nerd life on the block rootin' for us.
Writin' rhymes through school up in the notepad, G hit it on the block, yeah we so rad. Like the power glove, baby we so bad. DSL on my block, rollin' covad.
(Hook) Game theory, your man made it happen. Nerd Life on the tummy and I'm rappin' Nerd life on the tummy and I'm grabbin' Everything I can cause the game made it happen.
(Repeat Hook 3x)
Tired in my era, a phenomenon Said the right words and I took the Necronomicon, Writin' rhymes, bustin' heads with the feds, Burn 'em out like my Plextors since I was a kid.
They ask me, 'How can we get rid of ya?' My life get graphics, and call me a vidiot. Computer connoisseur, entrepreneur, Checkin' haters from my school and I'm seein' how they're poor.
Drank milk now the girls notice me, Made a couple bucks now the world notice me, and you know this, see Cause my game theory's bringing everything to the table Like SQL ("Sequel") queries
Computer craftsman, game theory got me Detractors, they box and crop me But my image is not to be choppy, Authentic to the game and they can never stop me
