[edit] Video Game Controversy
In late May 2010, Lancashire Evening Post ran an article about video games which drew some controversy for its comparison between video game addiction, underage drinking and drug use.[1] The article was heavily criticized on a number of video game blogs for its biased nature and lack of evidence of such claims.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
