OLPC now has games! Is there anything MIT can’t do?

Recommended Videos

The One Laptop Per Child initiative is a brilliant, heartwarming work of charity designed to bring the magic and wonder (read: porn) of the internet to children in less developed countries all over the world. Imagine that you’re a poor, starving child in Africa dreaming of all the fat, slow American kids you would love to devour; well now you can actually meet them in chat rooms, and possibly convince them to stop writing bad poetry and send you a chicken leg or a rack of lamb or a lizard or something so you don’t have to eat dust again!

So this OLPC project has been headed up by top geeks from the MIT Media Lab, and they hooked it up with some rad specs essential for life in the outback, or the savannah, or Detroit. However, one thing was missing from this generous gift, and that, of course, was DOOM. The software team got it running on the OLPC a few days back and it runs like a charm (as you can see from the embedded video). Now everyone, all over the world, can be united under a single common purpose, the frag.
