Political games journalism

Game Girl Advance has just posted a really interesting article discussing a Maoist games review site. Yes, that's videogames reviewed from a communist standpoint.

The piece goes on to consider the highly subjective games journalism found on the web, making comparisons with the Gonzo journalism of Hunter S Thompson and his ilk.

It's a fascinating read - especially for those of us who willingly gloss over the political and social ramifications of the games we play because we, you know, just like shooting stuff.
