The_Prince_of_Death Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 the facts are completely wrong. only 3 percent of the worlds population that plays video games has the down side effects of gaming, the rest live nice normal lives.

A●O●J Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Those who play video games daily smoke pot twice as much as other players and three times more than those who never playSo studies show that everyone who plays a video game smokes pot in the first place? Yeah thats very believable. Actually this sentence is saying that everyone smokes pot. How were these studies conducted btw? Young women who play often have lower self-esteemAccording to whom and if so why? Did you ask any real women that play video games about this? Are you simply saying this based on the low percentage of female gamers? Everything we found associated with videogames came out negativeExcluding improved hand eye coordination and facts about things like guns, terrorism, Countrys, Math, graphic design, to name a few that you might learn from playing a video game. Also by reading this article, what does that make the game developers? Low-life scum sent from the devil to poison the human species? Jake Thompson really needs to go to jail, Rockstar tried sueing him for harassing them so much. Also, who conducted these Bulls**t, biased, and ill written studies and how were they performed? These pathetic excuses for "Researchers" need to be stripped of there College Degree and shot in the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
