Gaming: I Learned It By Watching You, Alright!

Dad 'n Me!Buzzword alert! The "intergenerational market" is flourishing, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer (and some folks at Microsoft) meaning that the NES generation is growing up, making babies, and playing video games with those little runts. It seems that playing with the kids is becoming a real factor in our lives, with many gamer moms and dads logging an average of 9 hours a month spending quality frag time with their offspring.

Soon, Mario Party and Karaoke Revolution will replace those dusty old board games we were forced to play as children. You damn kids! You don't know how good you got it!
