A very interesting article (and even more lucid comments) on the videogames and violence debate which is a personal fascination of mine. I wrote my dissertation on the same subject although now I've read this I feel like I might have missed the mark. I'm not bitter, the clever sods.

In fact, it gets even more highbrow over at Other Players. Centre for computer games research. I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that's a sweet area of study. Count me in.

On the same site there's an amusing page (at least I thought so) which describes the blurring of online life with reality. Although when they start abbreviating real life to RL, my solidarity starts to evaporate. Quickly.
