1. Something to do when your bored
2. A
Scapegoat for the violence in America. When ironically American game developers are the companies who create such games.
3. Something people like to claim makes others dumb and fat. It takes intelligence to play video games. My only understanding of why someone would
claim it makes someone stupid, is because they don't understand video games. A.K.A
Can't Get Past the 1st Level
1. This car ride is taking forever, I think I'll play a video game.
2. Video games are the main cause of violence in America.
Dylan Klebold and
Eric Harris played Doom before they shot up their classmates, so the game made them do that. (Not that the constant daily
harrassment and violence towards them had anything to do with it, or the school
slacking off about it)
Violent videogames are mainly created by American game developers. We can't blame Japanese companies like Sega or Nintendo, because for the most part they refuse to associate themselves with any of the gaming companies who produce these violent games. At least when Japan wants to be violent in their games, it has style.
3. People who claim gamers are fat and stupid. Mainly those who do not
excell at gaming, so rather taking the time and effort to gain skill at the art of gaming, they simply put gamers down.
Frankly my view is if you sit and watch TV all day, vs gaming all day, at least when you game you're interacting and thinking. If you're just watching TV. It's like if you say I got through a hard level yesterday, at least that's an accomplishment. What do you accomplish from sitting on your ass watching TV, Cartman?
