Not to worry, gaming will be pretty much unaffected by the current gas prices, as will pretty much the entire entertainment industry. The current situation is an interesting one in that the rising oil prices have nothing to do with a shortage like in the 70's (theres plenty to go around for everyone currently), and everything to do with the current economic situation here in America and abroad and the ever increasing demand from countries like China.
And its not going to get any better unless we rely more on our own resources... A.K.A. more drilling and building more refineries and power plants. The reason countries like China's economies are growing so fast is that they are investing in their own infrastructure as opposed to relying on foreign markets for goods and supplies. We in the good old US of A on the other hand are too concerned with being "environmentally friendly" and all the false glowbull worming propaganda to stop sitting on our hands and actually do something constructive about our energy problem. Windmills and solar panels ain't gonna do shit in the long run, and neither is driving an "Ego-friendly" car like a Prius or running your car off vegetable oil... did you guys know that thanx to all the crops being bought up and used for trendy bio-fuels, the prices of raw goods have skyrocketed and people in some 3rd world countries are starving because they can't even afford the price of their own food!

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
