Violent Games
A few days back, 1up.com blogger Fandel Mulkey carried out an article that we too covered here on how media is sensationalizing videogames and comparing gaming addiction with crack addiction.
Today, he has come up with another fantastic analysis of TV debates on violent games and then discusses how unfair they are. Sometimes media sucks like nothing else. Anyway, my analysis is that mainstream media like TV will do anything to grab eyeballs. Sometimes they must be taken seriously, but most of the time they should be taken as rubbish entertainment, especially the news and debate items like this.
Have a look at it here.
Thanks again Fandel Mulkey
