Well, That’s Different: Pro Roleplaying
.
On Earth 2-O, tabletop roleplaying games, besides being immensly popular, are also a professional sport. It started when a television news crew did a story on a D&D tournament at a con and began to really catch on a couple of years later. By 1989, professional RPG matches were being televised once a week on a national network on Saturday evenings.
Televised sessions run 3 hours, but live session can run up to 6 hours. The game rules, regardless of genre or brand, are always streamlined and play is both against the clock and the scenario. Both players and Gms are rated by an international organization. Winning players get to split a prize ranging from a few thousand dollars to well over a million. Gms who participate get a set amount, but there are also GM only games, where all the players are well known GMs. There are also arena battles and free for all everyone for themselves dungeon runs.
While the fantasy genre is by far the most popular, the science fiction and horror genres are also big draws.

Well, That’s Different: Modular Computers
.
On Earth 1-V, one of the big differences from us is that personal computers are sold in modular pieces that plug together easily and quickly. Each module is housed in it’s own case, which can come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, patterns and colors. You will almost never see two personal computers that look exactly alike.
