Hollywood stereotypes. Weird clothes, living in basements, huge glasses.
Media stereotypes. Everyone of us has heard of hackers breaking in, crashing networks, defacing websites, causing mayhem. Yet Hackers are the traced shadows.
Nowadays, they are criminals.
Okay, what was my point anyway?
Did you wonder (The reply and the whole thing not pointed at you, but everyone who is playing these games) what is that little screen in "Uplink" showing x% criminal, and the alert "Computer hacked!" etc..
This is a game. True. But effective, very effective.

Besides, not in general anyway, the end of those kinds of games, accompanied with the feeling that " I'm the one ", attracts more "h4x0rs" around, thing that is not needed, anymore.
