Google Maps Style Videogame Legislation Tracker
Texas full of 'political promises'.

28 Feb 2006
If you tend to lose track of what is happening with the increasing number of pieces of videogame legislation pending in the US right now, then never fear! GamePolitic’s Videogame Legislation Tracker is here.
GamePolitic’s - "where politics and video games collide" - is one of SPOnG’s favourite sources for all ‘hot-button’ news about (US-based) legal and political issues relating to videogaming. The site is perhaps best known in the gaming community as being the site that broke the Hot Coffee story concerning hidden sex animation in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
They’ve really come up trumps with the Videogame Legislation Tracker, which is essentially a free and very simple-to-use Google Maps-style affair, whereby you click on the designated area to find out the name of the bill, its status, sponsors and any other relevant information. It would seem that Texas is top of the charts for 'political promises'. Now, why doesn't that surprise us!
The initiative is a great idea and one which SPOnG will be keeping a close eye on. As a resource to help (responsible) members of the media, (responsible) elected officials and (responsible) activists and gamers follow what's happening with current video game legislation, it’s certainly second to none. Well, it’s the only one. Duh!
