GAMES ARE SATAN AND THE CAUSE OF EVERYTHIGN BAD IN OUR SOCIETY INCLUDING CRACK, EVERY KIND OF DRUG, MURDER, AND ANY OTHER KIND OF EVIL YOU CAN THINK OF BECUASE WE ARE TO LAZY TO ACTUALLY FIND THE REAL CAUSES OF THESE THINGS!!!

- Some random reporter.

This story is going to get the limelight and put the entire industry under the magnifier just because it's a game. If the parents got wasted at a party or stonned for the same time period it would shift to page 8 in the news paper and be forgotten in a week.

Agreed to a certain extent, since I'm so annoyed by these stupid "games are the devil" movements, but...

At least if you're drunk/on drugs when you're away, you can explain how you lost track of time because of your mental state.

This is just pathetic.

Gaming is a mental state too.

Peh. As much of one as like...practicing your violin intensely, or reading a good book is. It's not mind-*altering* is what I mean. If your mind's just that retarded to start with (they could have just dropped off the kid upstairs!), well, fucked.
