The Living Force
I recently came across this -- I'm not sure what to call it, but it's kind of fun:

It seems like programmers/techie people might particularly enjoy certain parts of it, but it should be fun for everyone. There is occasionally some slightly crude humor, but it's not very bad or often. If you tend to get addicted to things like this, it might be good to think twice about it -- there's a lot of material, and I just do a few frames every now and then when I need to take a break from what I'm doing (which means I'll probably never finish it).
There are occasionally parts of the story that jump out as being kind of inspired -- like at the end of Act One, where the world is destroyed by comets and the characters then find themselves in an alternate reality. Also, while the main character is kind of an everyman, the three supporting characters seem to fit with Gurdjieff's man one, man two and man three; there are apparently a large number of sites that have spun off of this, with the sole purpose of doing character and story analysis. Anyway, I hope this provides some amusement to anyone who may find themselves stuck behind a computer a lot.
