10/20 Virtual Chaos

Quote From: gamertothemax6

The arrogance of you people.
I cannot believe you just toss aside video games like some type of drug.
To Doctor Phil also, You claimed that "Video Games Are For Losers"?
It has been scientificly proven that people who play video games are smarter than the average person, Because they are constantly thinking and persuing their way to the goal.
Even surgens are using video games as a way to help themselves become more capable for sergery.
Doctors are using the new Nintendo Wii to help people with wieght loss, and exercising.
Just because a couple people have no self control and get addicted to video games doesn't mean everyone who plays them does.
I know a very close friend of mine who has been playing games since pong, and his life has never been better, actually he is one of the happiest people I've ever met.
I myself have been playing since NES, And don't remember 1 time my life was ruined because of it.
Your ignorance upsets in the matter, To have no prior experience, no years of fun and making friends through tournaments, an all night party playing online on a weekend.
Video gaming has become a sport, Major League Gaming which can be considered a career.
I know for a fact you have insulted thousands of people who find video games as a fun relief, or an exciting get away from work, or a fun time with friends.
To have played games for these years and than to be called a loser by some egotistical, Ignorant and arrogant person is apauling.
And I say egotistical because you are a hypocrite. You talk about helping people and telling them to "Get Real", But what right do you have to tell people to get real when you need to get real first. You talk about helping people, but for every 1 person you "help" Many more are hurt. You do it for money nothing else.
Many people that play video games are being kept safe from joining gangs and doing drugs, which lays in everyday life by staying home inside.
Before you start complaining and worrying about little things like games, Concentrate on the important things, Like the war, or the gangs, or drugs.
Until these things are gone, video games should be the last of your worries.
You can't say that the real world is a scary place filled with gangs as a rationale for staying inside and avoiding reality. You can't say that a couple people have a problem--- I know a lot of gamers and the norm for them is to spend entire weekends and over 40 hours a week, loosing their jobs and isolating themselves from their old friends. Denial denial denial!
