The News Gets Gamed: Tiger Woods Machinima Edition

Behold this version of the Tiger Woods scandal — which looks to be in Chinese but may (according to our resident Internet expert) have come through Taiwan. The events, right down to the rumored face-scratching are being re-enacted using Machinima, which is the “use of real-time three-dimensional (3-D) graphics rendering engines to generate computer animation.” Basically, the news has been gamed.

Forget Twitter, at some point we may have our news stories Machinimated.
