I think it's applicable to a lot of types of games. Sure online games are relevant, especially since you're dealing with real people but because of the filter of the game they don't seem truly REAL (much in the same way Daly probably rationalized that his victims weren't real). I was also reminded of games like GTA, The Sims and Roller Coaster Tycoon, where just about every player at some point has just decided to slaughter helpless simulated people for amusement. I know I have. There's something oddly liberating about being able to do things with no consequence. For me the fact that the lack of consequences included that no real people were actually harmed was a bonus, but for some out there this is a drawback, which is a scary thought. So yeah there are good concepts in this episode but the execution just ruined them for me.
