I just joined up and have posted the letter Stan Lee wrote to about 5 different sites already. People even if you don't live in America you can still help, post the links, send emails, and tell friends. I mean America has such a big impact of the gaming industry that whatever happens here could in fact have repercussions world wide. So please lets all do our part and save the medium that brings us such entertainment and joy!
Thank you Yahtzee for lending this cause your god-like power and influence over the masses......including me. I'm just a bit peeved that the badge design competition was won by what is clearly a PS controller.
If you can't vote, that's no excuse to just sit on your lazy asses. Do what Yahtzee did, spread the word! Tell all your friends to spread the word untill it's known worldwide. American Government doesn't like being printed as bad. Now, I want to see tons of VGVN banners on facebook!
Not American, but keep fighting the good fight you Yankee madmen. Video games are demonized by useless politicians for quicky votes, if gamers become a politically active voting block, politicians will have to think twice before trying to jam unethical legislation down your throats.
What i find hilarious is that the one accusing videogames of being violent is Arnold Schwarzenegger
^This. Considering America is such a huge market and a large part of the video game industry, why isn't there (or if there is, could we spread knowledge about that too? or just quote me so I can do my bit at least?) an organization that allows non-Americans to vote against this case? This isn't just an American issue, it's a world issue regarding an entire medium :\GeneticallyModifiedDucks said:
That said, thank you Yahtzee for making this episode to help raise awareness, although I wish you noted a part to refute all that "but I'm Brittish and shit works like that over here anyway" and similar posts. People don't understand how wonderful (and fucked) American justice system is.
Out of interest (I fully support the sentiment), if video games start getting banned etc in America, does that not mean the industry will just move elsewhere, such as Europe, and produce them there? And like, Americans could only get them on illegal import?
