I found this article related to my previous post on the Supreme Court case on violent video games. It seems that the court decided to overturn California's law banning the sale of violent video games. Something else happened here though, that I think is important and potentially momentous for the the gaming community: games were listed along side other forms of idea communication such as books, music, and other communicative forms of entertainment.
Although, I am glad that the court decided to limit the ban on sales, I do hope that state governments continue to uphold severe penalties for not marking these types of games appropriately. It is the right and responsibility of parents to monitor their children's behavior, and that should never be taken away from them by any government.
