I love how they quickly silence anybody on there that disagrees with the spin they're trying to put on their "story."
Just more technophobia from people who have no purpose on this planet.
Oh dear god, you actually have to use your hands to grab something, turn it over AND look at it?! That's ridiculous, parents should never have to be so overburdened to filter their child's experiences.
The last guy is the only one who made any sense at all.
I am a very anti violence kinda guy, hate it, hate guns etc. BUT I love FPS games, and I really enjoy adult themed violent ones... it has no real baring on real life, they need to stop creating scapegoats for bad parenting, simple.
All they keep coming back to is 'Well parent's just can't watch everything their kids are doing any more, the kids are going to play their dad's game'. Ok, let's break this down:
* Parent's should be actively involved in what their kids watch and play. No TVs in their bedroom, any watching/playing is done in a communal area, such that they can't hide it away. Same goes for a computer.
* By saying that the kids are going to play their dad's game, are you suggesting that it shouldn't be able to be purchased at all? Are you saying NOTHING should be available that kids shouldn't have access to? What about alcohol? No, you won't ban that because a) that's stupid and has been tried before, and b) you lot all love a drink and wouldn't want that deprived of you. So what do you do? You keep your liquor under lock and key. Parent's can do that with any M/AO games too you know.
* Then they swing back to "Well it's all available on the internet"... a game of that size? Yeah, won't notice that on your internet usage... Where did that 4.5Gig go Billy?
I love Jeff, I think he did a great job.
Holy crap these guys love spouting crap 'Luke Skywalker vs Debbie Does Dallas' argh, it is painful.
STOP TRYING TO BLAME EVERYONE ELSE BECAUSE YOU CAN'T BE BOTHERED DOING YOUR F*CKING JOB AS A PARENT.
END OF STORY.
And Anybody else watching this with a mega-zoom-in crop? Yup... go fullscreen (and then back if you want) fixes it.

Thanks.
"FOX BAD" (duh), Video games gooood!" (meh!) Read a fucking chemistry textbook, or memorize the countries of the world, kiddies!! Oh, better yet, get off yer ass and burn some calories, and get some sun fer crissakes, ya pasty little monkeys!
What a circlejerk of Horror here on this thread....carry on!!
Cry me a river, you chose to have the snotty-nosed brat in the first place, so shut up and let me play my Bioware.
You know, a lot of us who enjoy our computer games are exceedingly productive members of the community, who exercise, who raise families, who help others in need, and my god no... actually went to university and have a degree.
But then I guess you were just trying to elicit a response, no?
i couldn't hear you, over the Judas Priest blaring on my headphones.
moving on.
I just wish that Mass Effect came out for PC. I played the first couple of hours and want more.
I have heard all the arguments for and against games with graphic stylized violence and sexual innuendo, etc., and have my opinions-I have watched families of 4, 5, 7, become so robotically detached from healthy interaction and interpersonal relations, who give hours and hours to their mind-numbing efforts on the latest and greatest consoles and software, who rate very high on the hand/eye/thumb coordination scale with nothing but hours clocked and levels completed for all their efforts. I know the psyche of some of the folks that have some pretty unhealthy ideas about their fellow man who have spent countless hours dedicated to the wholesale annihilation of imaginary enemies or fer crissakes, Tetris and mine sweeper......Met some pretty detached, unsocialized monkeys in my day.....
Gaming bores me to fucking tears-in some cases it provides an outlet for some retrograde aspects of the human psyche to create tunnels in the minds of meatbots.
Go outside and play for fucks sake.....get a life, better yet, make a life-
You don't enjoy games. That's fine. Some people don't enjoy sports. You don't see them running around wishing that sports would suddenly disappear off the face of the earth. Not understanding the hostility.
Your examples of "meatbots" and dysfunctional families are not very compelling. Correlation does not equal causation. It seems much more likely that these people you describe were dysfunctional to begin with and were attracted to games as a way to deal with their dysfunction. I liken it to any addiction--not everyone who gambles or smokes or drinks is an addict. In the same way, not everyone who plays a video game is social misfit, although you will most certainly find social misfits who are gamers. The point is, for these people, even if games evaporated overnight they won't be cured. In all likelihood they'd just move along to some other hobby to support their dysfunction.
No hostility, that's your process not mine-I expressed frustration, perhaps, my real beef is with people creating tunnels whereby they indulge a path of least resistance as opposed to a healthy, dynamic, multi-faceted experience as a human.
No one seems to speak of the long-term effects of the detachment from healthy human interaction, poor diet, repetitive motor and synaptic disorders no doubt happening but unstudied, etc-this is not an indictment wholesale or some unilateral condemnation of video games-My points are as valid as anyone else's on the subject-social dysfunction is a goddamn epidemic in most western cultures, video games suit the detached of society like hand in glove.
No SDGundamx, never is it the case for everyone-agreed that there would be other outlets for dysfunctionals.
I have a degree in a game design, and I think that these fools would laughed out of the industry. After all these are fox news ass hats. These idiots make me very, very angry.
I don't care if it makes your job as a parent hard, adapt overcome or don't.
Everything else under the sun, tho, must be heavily regulated under a microscope by huge "efficient" federal bureaucracies, especially the shaping of young minds in government schools.
Hypocrite, thy symbol is the jackass.
It's up to parents... "unfortunately" - she says? Did their mothers (for all except reasonable Mr. Last Guy) smoke crack and cocaine when they were with child?
How would they react and what would they do if someone send them a package consisting of screencaps, gameplay videos and a full list of "facts" about some japanese game that could rightfully be called a porn-simulator, like something from Illusion? I'd think they'd like to get their hands on their very own copy of Rapelay. Just think about what they could with the title alone...
