Taking The Videogame Market To The Next Level

Thanks to EvilAvatar for pointing out this article about the rise in popularity of games over at Creative Planet's Videography site. Amidst interesting figures about the ascent of games compared to movies, the author points out that, in 2001, the IDSA was expecting almost 17 billion dollars in videogame sales for 2003, when the total is unlikely to be anywhere near that. Is the games industry over-reaching, or are heady movie-surpassing revenue goals in sight?

Games have completely eaten up the young generation alive. And i'm not talking about me! Its sad to see 10 12 year old kids sitting at the computer all day playing games. I can't tell where its all going to lead to, but not good so far.
This may be a generalization but young kids are getting dumber by the minute.
