PopCap Titles Life-Savers

GameSetWatch has a humorous look at a recent press package they received from PopCap Games. From the article: "'Earlier this summer I had a terrifying situation where an unexpected interaction of two new prescription medicines sent me into a panic attack so severe it made me attempt suicide. When I got home from the hospital that night, I sat there playing the endless version of Bejeweled 2 for most of the night, while the last of the overdose I had taken worked its way out of my system.' This, kind readers, is why casual games are actually pretty hardcore."

Just like watching movies, seeing plays, listening to music, reading novels etc.

Right?

Seriously, outside pure escapism , games do nothing good.

Sometimes a few ounces of pure escapism can be a good thing, you know? Keep you from going slightly crazy, work out your anger nondestructively...
