That's pretty cool. Our kids and our kids kids are going to have their entire lives on some sort of virtual source.

Yahoo! Autos came upon a story that’s bound to raise the hairs on the back of your neck.
The YouTube channel PBS Game/Show recently took a look at whether video games could provide a spiritual experience. The video’s worth a watch if you’ve spent any time in front of a console, but it’s nothing compared to one commenter’s story.

"Well, when i was 4, my dad bought a trusty XBox. you know, the first, ruggedy, blocky one from 2001. we had tons and tons and tons of fun playing all kinds of games together - until he died, when i was just 6.
i couldnt touch that console for 10 years.
but once i did, i noticed something.
we used to play a racing game, Rally Sports Challenge. actually pretty awesome for the time it came.
and once i started meddling around... i found a GHOST.
literaly.
you know, when a time race happens, that the fastest lap so far gets recorded as a ghost driver? yep, you guessed it - his ghost still rolls around the track today.
and so i played and played, and played, untill i was almost able to beat the ghost. until one day i got ahead of it, i surpassed it, and...
i stopped right in front of the finish line, just to ensure i wouldnt delete it.
Bliss."
The commenter managed to reconnect with his deceased father in a meaningful way, years after he had passed away. All because of an old copy of RalliSport Challenge.

it would be hype to always come into the game when you son is playing it an goes of course or kills an innocent.
