Every year the National Institute of Media and Family (NIMF) produces the &#8220;Annual Video Game Report Card&#8221;.  This report is often cited each year by political candidates in the issue of violence in video games and how we are protecting our children.  The 27-page document was released today at an event attended by [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;ve always liked the swagger a lot of Swedes seem to have.  They have great education and health-care.  They have fantastic chocolate.  They have those banks I keep hearing about.  They&#8217;re politically neutral, which is pretty cool.  Really interesting though is that, currently, Sweden is neutral waters in the [...]]]></description>

The above review by Jeff Gerstmann is, one must admit, pretty stark.  Though his review gives the game a 6.0/10 overall, he speaks in great lengths as to the poorly constructed plot, the poor AI, and the overall shoddy construction of the game.  This was to be his last post though, as [...]]]></description>

A new 747-page bill is being given a run in Congress concerning budgeting for college aid.  I&#8217;m not exactly the type of person who reads government documents literally the size of airplanes, and a new version of this bill comes up pretty routinely as this is a $100-billion dollar expenditure and Congress does not take [...]]]></description>

Generally speaking, when someone comes to me and blames the problems of our nation&#8217;s youth on video games, I tell them they are misinformed.  When they bring up &#8220;Grand Theft Auto&#8221; and refer to it as a &#8220;murder simulator&#8221;, I casually explain that the game implements one of the best scripts this side of [...]]]></description>

It wasn&#8217;t exactly all that long ago that I posted on clips from The Daily Show that finally saw the light of the Internet again after Viacom forced YouTube to remove all copyrighted content.  Something about Viacom posting thousands of clips from the show, hand picking the selection even, seemed pretty cool.  [...]]]></description>

You may remember the lawsuit that nearly brought down YouTube.  Viacom threatened legal action against YouTube if they did not take down all content owned by Viacom.  YouTube took giant strides to meet these needs, and today YouTube is a bastion of legality.  In fact, they are going beyond content screening, [...]]]></description>

Radiohead dropped what could be considered the biggest bombshell in some time.  Now, releasing an album for free is nothing new.  Heck, Harvey Danger already put out their album &#8220;Little by Little&#8221; for free via BitTorrent.  Or, there is my personal favorite DIY speed punk band, Bomb The Music Industry!, which puts [...]]]></description>

Chances are, the people in the above image are not exactly the target audience for the Hip-Hop video being shown.
