Minnesota Pays Video Game Industry $65K In Fees

Posted by kdawson on from the don't-let-the-door-hit-you dept.

I Said More Ham writes "Minnesota's attorney general will drop the state's efforts to fine underage buyers of violent videogames after a high court struck down a state law as unconstitutional. The Entertainment Software Association, one of the plaintiffs in the case, announced Monday that the state paid $65,000 in attorney's fees and expenses."

    I might just institute a no video game rule, or at best, make it something that was played, as a family, on a game night, but not something my kid could turn to as a self-stimulant. Ditto with TV, movies, etc. That way everything could be vetted before it came into my house and more importantly, none of it would become a overwhelming soul-crushing obsession for me and mine that you fucking nerds have with it.
