    Just in time for Father's Day, CNN has a positive article up on the subject of families who game together. From the Wii to Diablo and Guild Wars, the message is that gaming with your kids can equal a (gasp!) positive way to spend time together, as opposed to the usual litany of complaints that equal gaming will turn your children into blank-eyed violent zombies.

    "You're on the kid's turf," said Dr. Arminta Jacobson, director of the Center for Parent Education at the University of North Texas. "Anything that's fun between fathers and their kids I think is a really good thing."

    Who ever would have thought?
