Showing my age here, but the OGs of Doom, Mortal Kombat and GTA turned all the millennial gamers into murderous sociopaths who can't tell the difference between video games and reality. That's after Dungeons & Dragons turned us into murderous sociopaths who can't tell the difference between board games and reality. If I recall correctly, the hoopla around all of that made national news in the States.
No, no, no, Dungeons & Dragons turned us into devil worshipping heathens. The murderers all came from videogames.
Right you are. I have fallen to the sway of various evils so many times that I get them mixed up.
I thought rock 'n' roll did both a long time ago. Who would Charles Manson have become without the Beatles' White Album and Helter Skelter?
