Some Thoughtful Reading
Tuesday, July 26, 2005
[X] Ian Bogost makes a convincing (and passionate) case for why full-screen ads in videogames are evil and poorly thought through (but may succeed anyway!).
[X] Sean Savage on the Smart Mobs blog worries that when two databases meet, privacy may be their victim, citing the combination of Hot or Not profiles plus Google Maps.
[X] Paul Marino at Thinking Machinima has a thoughtful look at how the massively overhyped Hot Coffee Mod might eventually impact the modding community and machinima-makers (machinimatographers, even!).
[X] Grant points to an great feature over at Game Revolution called "The Truth About Violent Youth and Video Games" which argues that the current playstation obsessed generation of US kids/teens are the least violent generation ever (the opposite of what the conservative media hype would suggest).
