And the thing is... i think TV companies are marketing to keep people from playing games and watch more TV... Because games take rating away from them.

    Useless article is useless. Seriously this kind of stuff has been going on since the 90s. Many tv shows tend to have episodes geared towards things like gamers or even furries or other such things. The writer of this article seems to make it sound like this is also something NEW when it's not. Heck most shows have passing views of people playing video games. There was a episode of ER during Season 2 I believe showing a couple characters playing DooM.

    lol I liked that article.
     
    When I see Dexter playing Halo 3 on a computer (Halo 3 is only available for the Xbox 360 console, OBVIOUSLY) using nothing but the keyboard (OMG, it's virtually impossible to play a first-person shooter on a PC without using a mouse!), I cringe and rage.
