Virtual gaming worlds overtake Namibia  by Craig D at 10:59

There's a bizarre article on bbc.co.uk that talks about a new study into the economic value of online gaming, in particular mmorpg's like Everquest or Ultima Online.
According to the analysis this gaming activity has a gross economic impact equivalent to the GDP of the Southern African nation of Namibia.
Mental.

Persoanlly I don't see the attraction of mmorpgs, I have my own life, I don't need a virtual one.
