Today's dose of propaganda video: The 'Fight for Video Games' Web Trailer
Corrupt. Evil. Devil Worshippers. You wouldn't want to be associated with those words, would you? Of course not. The new "Fight for Video Games" trailer created by the Video Game Voters Network is above and beyond ridiculous in moments, even with the Gregorian Chants highlighting the "war" between politicians, media and the video game industry.We're hoping at least one person involved in this over-the-top production is laughing. Interesting note: not a single video game can be seen in the two minute trailer. Video embedded after the break.
VG Voters send Senate 20K notes; survey up
New members to the Video Game Voters Network received an e-mail this morning letting them know that nearly 20,000 messages were sent to U.S. Senators from concerned gamers in just over a week's time.What were basically sent were form letters, addressed to the appropriate Senators, telling them not to restrict video games, and concluding with the gaming voter's name and address at the end. It looks like the more effective mailing of handwritten letters will be left up to the concerned citizens themselves.Also noted in the e-mail was a survey meant to "help [them] better target and personalize the action alerts [they] send to you." While it's up to you whether you want to share your demographic information and gaming-blog contributions with a political network (even a game-oriented one), it would probably help refine the organization's strategy in who to approach for help and how. The full letter this blogger received follows.See also: Video Game Voters Network: 10,000 strong in first week VGVN's "Contact Congress/Your Senators!" page [with form letter]
