Computer games exhibition underway in Melbourne

The computer games industry has moved to dispel some myths about their products and those who play them. A new US survey has found that more women than men play online games and suggests that gaming is not socially isolating. The data also shows that computer games are not the sole domain of kids, with 66% of those who play are actually adults. Melbourne is currently playing host to an exhibition called Game On, which looks at the history of the gaming industry.
