Default Writer of anti-games article apologizes
The original article: http://www.heraldnet.com/Stories/03/11/18/17748407.cfm

The apology: http://www.heraldnet.com/Stories/04/1/13/18006955.cfm

I remember that in a previous thread some people said things like "what can we do?" and "nothing matters anyway". Well, here you go.

That's a great story Marek. How cool that penny-arcade.com helped out so much. What an uplifting article. I shall go eat some sweets now.

I just love people who have marvelously flamboyant opinions without ANY, ANY information whatsoever. This guy has taken random aspects of random games and stretched that over to include ALL games... blah blah blah

I need a breakfast, I am not accountable for my grammar or the substance of my thoughts right now...

Curses! Another victory for inhuman! I still don't think webcomics are funny!

Excellent! I always say that education is the only cure for the cancer of bigotry.

GREAT to see Child's Play get some well-deserved recognition.

Too bad that's the most pathetically lame NON-apology from the writer.

Well, small victories, I guess.
