Counter Strike Street Art by Carol T Chung

MMOG-CntrStrk-StreetArt.jpg
Having found my inner MMOGer (massive multiplayer online gamer), I couldn't pass up the opportunity to show you this tidbit of nerdy culture fascination. Counter Strike is one of the largest first person shooter games online. If it so happens to be one of your chosen past times, check out counter street art. You can download and use sprays of Banksy, Miss Van, and Blek le Rat. Hopefully we can to expect some more of this kind of bad behavior in other MMOGs and even original user tags (at least before game publishers revise their EULAs!)
