Video Games Rot Yer Brain Says Aussie Paper

sydneymorningherald.jpg

Video games rot your brain. So says The Sydney Morning Herald in a gloom and doom piece on the video game industry. To support this tired argument, the paper has university professors saying "The video game industry is taking the same approach that the tobacco industry took for many years." The Sydney Morning Herald then quotes Jack Thompson.

About what? No clue. I pretty much stopped reading the article at this point. There's something about Brain Age professor as someone who used to be against gaming, but has changed his mind due to Nintendo money. But who really cares? The Sydney Herald just proved it knows zlich about gaming.

More Here [SMH] Thanks, Jan!
