Gamasutra - Kicking The Dog At The Game Critics' Rant.
"But a dearth of cultural maturity -- and the social maturity that tends
to go with that -- is a long, long way away from a lack of manhood. Okay,

men's fabled "fear of intimacy" for just about everything is a chestnut as
old as, well, Lord of the Rings."
Gameplayer - Gaming Flips the Power on Film.
"Dante’s Inferno is the catalyst of this subtle, yet powerful tremor that
is rippling through the games industry and whose aftershocks are set to be

between film and games on its head. Our eyebrows were first raised in
November of last year when it was revealed that four major motion picture
companies were in a bidding war for the rights to a video game that had yet
to be properly announced. Rights eventually won by Universal Pictures."
