The rebuttal by the gaming industry takes me back to the good old days, when smoking was touted as healthy ... this is not what I would call an unbiased opinion.

fuck, you might as well release a study that children who spend all their time studying math tend to do poorly in English. Saying game-playing doesn't promote frontal lobe development is different from saying it retards it.

Besides, which game were the children playing? Was there a control group? Any sociological differences between the groups?

There's so much crap missing from this "study" that I'm astonished they even managed to get their results published... fucking sensationalist media. Bah.
