Online diarist David Tolin has a problem. Tolin is blessed with children but cursed by the impossibly hot summers that come with living in south Texas. Keeping his kids indoors to prevent death by a blazing sun is difficult without video games; and currently video games are doing their share to make things difficult too.

Tolin goes on about how video games used to be kids' territory and the changes the industry has seen in the last 20 years. He even blames Sony for ushering in the age of video games for adults. It's a compelling (if long) read, giving some context for both his argument and the current state of video games.
