Interesting... I see that in fact many teenage males might only be online for games and porn, but I know I, for one, would like to differ in opinion.
I know for a fact that I am often online for games (I'm an addict) but I have never been on for any sort of porn, and I am on as often to socialize, research or inform myself as anything else, so don't go talking about EVERYONE unless you can be sure you are talking about EVERYONE.
I understand your feelings, but wasn't that article the history of First Person Shooters, not the enitre history of video games? I am quite aware of the much longer and more diverse history of the entire gaming industry in general, but didn't FPS's start at Doom?
