A while back there was all this bruhaha and oompah loompah about videogames causing seizures. And while it has probably never happened to you, it is a problem.
Well, in the UK, there's some uproar in Parliament (aka the confusing Congress) and they're calling for the safety-testing of games. They already test tv shows and movies for similar pitfalls, and it would really just lead to less annoying flashing in games, we're all for that.
All this hullabaloo and skiptomahloo was raised over a year ago when Gaye Herford found her 10 year-old son having a fit from playing Raving Rabbids on his DS.
