Dr. Henry Jenkins on Video Game Myths

There is an incredible amount of misinformation about video games being disseminated by the media and narrow-minded politicians regarding Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas [B0001VGFK2]. Perhaps some of these ill-informed talking heads should spend a few minutes reading Eight Myths About Video Games Debunked, written for PBS by the highly respected Dr. Henry Jenkins, professor and director of comparative studies at MIT.

I would then recommend actually playing GTA:San Andreas before forming an opinion. Aside from the boring opening, terrible target-locking controls, and tedious mission failure / restart states, the game is quite fun!
