This editorial from the Economist describes the controversy surrounding video games
and the effect they have on people who use them. The author points out that
skepticism of new media has gone back to the time of the ancient Greeks, so this
controversy surrounding video games is nothing new. The article also points out that
most critics of gaming are people over 40. It is an issue of generations not
understanding one another, rather than of the games themselves. As the youth of
today grow older, the controversy will die out, according to the author. The author of
this article stresses the age factor as the real reason for opposition to video games
and stresses the good gaming has done in most areas of human life. This article is
distinctive in exploring the controversy surrounding video games from a generational
standpoint and is written for a general audience.
While it is easy to support the claim that the video game controversy is not new,
there is not much evidence to support the claim that the issue is a difference in
generations understanding each other. For example, a person 40 years old in 2005
was born in 1965, meaning their later teen years might have been spent in a video
arcade.
