VIDEO GAME RECRUITING: Humanity was depressed. After all the last two generations had grown up realizing that Science Fiction and the Scientists had lied. The huge leaps forward that would take mankind out to the stars? Never happened. First contact had crushed humanity as the more advanced aliens explained that the future was just as bad as the past. The only good thing? Intergalactic war was not possible. Then an unknown alien race had dropped asteroids on Earth and tried to invade with killer robots. They had failed. Humanity had stopped really looking up other than in fear. Something had to change. ---------------------------------------------------------- Tim is doing the best he can to get through life while gaming and having a good time. He understands that he has to work hard. After all, "Work Hard, Play Hard." Is almost the motto of his parent's generation. Tim's hopes of a quiet entry level management position in some company that allows him to keep playing are dashed when he is accepted into The Corporation. The single corporation that has been put in charge of developing the solar system and exploring space. Somehow Tim ends up assistant to a senior manager in charge of the department that uses Virtual Reality games as evaluation tools to screen the general public for the ability to successfully become Marines. The number of potential candidates found through the gaming system is low. Too low. Someone is sabotaging the system. Tim is going to have to step up his game and fix the mistakes caused by the Isolationists or the gaming system may be shut down. Tim knows just fortifying Earth won't work if the aliens come back. Offense is the best defense when the enemy can drop large rocks on your head. The best offense is to have Marines. Lots of Marines.
