As you all know by now, Infinity Ward is offering a pair of night vision goggles with the Prestige Edition ofModern Warfare 2. As youalsomay know, British tabloid “journalists” love to insinuate that videogames and gamers are perverse tools of Satan, so it’s no surprise that glorified comic bookThe Daily Staris claiming thatthe Prestige Edition goggles are for “pervy nights out.”
“GEEKY computer game fans are set to become an army of ogling pervs thanks to a giveaway of night edvision goggles with an edition ofCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2,” writes respected journalist Ciarah Hannah. “… Hordes of joy-pad junkies are rubbing their hands in anticipation and some have already admitted they will use thegoggles for ‘stealth dogging’ and to spy on gay cruising spots.”
TheStarwriter then quotes a pair of gamers who posted obviously joking comments on various blogs and attempts to portray them as serious testimonials and evidence that all gamers are perverts.
Still, they don’t playvideogames, so they’re obviously far more mentally stable than we stealth-dogging gay cruisers.
