This is a bit old, but I couldn't find anything in a search that indicated it may have been posted before. I came across it during a bored peruse through the Onion's archives. If you've seen it before, enjoy it again. If not...prepare to lol:


Are Violent Video Games Adequately Preparing Children For The Apocalypse?

I think my favorite part is the way they got people who look *exactly like* the crowd who usually spews out drivel on video game violence discussing things like medpacks and supersoldiers.

And that throwaway, indifferent line about "most of [the kids] will be mutants themselves anyway" is humor at its finest. Laughing

I'm glad SOMEONE's preparing us for the apocolypse. They don't teach that shit in school. IMO with the way the world is heading, it should be worth college credit.

It could evolve into something like that, however then it wouldn't be a video game discussion.

My guess is this will be locked very soon.
