#5 ARGs
ARGs are also known as alternate reality games. It is real-time based and instead of playing the game on the console the game continues based on what the live participants do. I am not quite sure what ARGs are as a whole. Also why craig had us read it, I am not entirely sure but I do have an idea. ARGs are, in a sense, a scavenger hunt. Many assingments we do are similar to scavenger hunts because we have to find the information needed. Perhaps by reading this article, it gets us ino the mind set of a scavenger hunt for such future assingments. This impacts us, now, specifically as we start our information wiki's. Finding websites and information pertinent to this task involves searching the internet for valid websites with the information we need, which, is in its own way, similar to a scavenger hunt. Wheather that is the correct reason or not why Craig had us read the article, I do not know. Either that is the reason or he really is having us play one. Chances are my original idea is wrong but only time will tell.
