Guff About Videogames: Wait, Games Are Good For Us Now? Gaming is normally covered by news outlets as one of the worst threats to our Way of Life imaginable, guilty for murder, destruction and the general destruction of the human race as we know it. So it’s always nice when there’s a single thing in the mainstream press that manages to be both positive and reasonably interesting. Well, more interesting than Cooking Mama selling four million. Four million. Shock of all shocks, there have been at least three whole stories reported on by real news places over the last week, all of which avoiding the urge to decry gaming as the arbiter of doom and one even slating Keith Vaz. Amazing.
