All Together Now: 2/3/08 - 2/8/08

2/3/08- Grand Theft Auto is expected to be controversial yet again. (I'll leave some space for you to gasp in disbelief here).

2/4/08- Other countries than the United States have gaming controversies as well. Again, not a real shocker of a headline, but at least this one has some real details.

2/5/08- I began my Off-Topic Tuesdays with a new Google Map to complement the Gaming Around the World post from the fourth.

2/6/08- I examined the new study claiming that men are more likely to become addicted to video games. I had a couple of problems with it that have yet to be resolved.

2/7/08- There is too much orchestral music in big-budget games today, I've decided.

Also, I recapped the remaining presidential candidates' stances on gaming legislation to kick off "Patriatari Thursdays" on the blog. I still haven't decided whether that should be pronounced like "patriotic" or like "patria", the word for home country in several Romance languages. You decide.
