Gaming in the mainstream media

The truth is, however, there are still a huge amount of people that have little to no experience playing games, at least not the ones that hardcore fans are attracted to. While there are exceptions, from The Sims to Doom to the Grand Theft Auto series to World of Warcraft that have captured mass attention and sales, it has to be said that there are still a lot of people who not only have not played any video or PC games but don’t quite understand why it has grown into an entertainment industry that now rivals movies, music and TV for attention.
