Interactive, multiplayer videogames to show your mettle; if you are up to the challenge, compete and win. Video games have added a new dimension to entertainment and traditional casino games; videogames are indeed changing the very nature of games for fun or money. These are not considered gambling because the odds of winning do not depend on random luck but on the skill of the player, especially if one is pitted against another person in an interactive fashion, like in this case.
And for us, the most interesting part of this whole issue is that you can be playing from anywhere in the world, provided that you have a computer and an internet connection. Today most airliners, passenger ships and cruises, and even buses and trains have been equipped with wireless or satellite broadband internet connections; you can even play online and interactively from a research or scientific base or outpost in Antarctica or Greenland, and other similarly isolated places around the world.
Getting online from places like those is still a little bit expensive or limited in terms of acceptable bandwidth, but indeed, you can be sitting where Nordenskjold, the Swedish explorer spent two years isolated in Antarctica, with his crew of Swedish, Norwegian and Argentinean scientists, until they could be rescued by the A.R.A. 'Uruguay,' an especially outfitted corvette dispatched from Buenos Aires to look for the missing expedition. And you can play online sitting on the side of their Husqvarna stove in the little cabin they had in the middle of nowhere, one hundred years ago.
