anyone else into this book totally geeky but dam fine for it. I see he's signed it up a movie and has written scripts before so am at least glad he went the way of writing the book first not just pitching a script. anyone else love to spend some time in the OASIS?

my bad. I guessed if you had read it as the thread title is the book title all would make sense. its by Ernest Cline its set in 2044 and the real world has become an ugly place. We're out of oil. We've wrecked the climate. Famine, poverty, and disease are widespread. Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes this depressing reality by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia where you can be anything you want to be, where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets. OASIS founder James Halliday, who dies with no heir, has promised that control of the OASIS - and his massive fortune - will go to the person who can solve the riddles he has left scattered throughout his creation. For years, millions have struggled fruitlessly to attain this prize, knowing only that the riddles are based in the culture of the late twentieth century. And then Wade stumbles onto the key to the first puzzle....
