This Week's Sign of the Apocalypse -- 6:23 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

According to this USA Today article (motto: what we lack in content, we make up in shallowness), the top selling video game of 1999 was, um, Pokémon with 12 million copies sold. The highest selling "M" (mature) rated video game was Half-Life with less than half a million copies sold. The article claims that it is a reaction against ultra-violent video games. I think it's a sign of increasing recreational drug use, but that's me. Thanks Shugashack for the link. I think.
