I agree - I thought the Pac-man joke was funny. xp

Yes, the I've heard the Pac-Man rendition before. That's just such a great come back to the whole issue of video games. Though I suppose one can argue the point of realistic violence in video game graphics (Doom, Resident Evil), versus back in the day with things like Pac Man.

That's also true - video game violence has come a long way (GTA and Manhunt 2 vs Donkey Kong and Pac-man).

I remember seeing something on Youtube regarding a guy that plays too much Counter Strike, and he acts violently, and compares everything to shooting games. It's hard to tell if he's just joking, or if he really means everything he says. Score one for Mike Thompson, I guess. sweatdrop

Yeah, it's a bit... scary, isn't it? The more realistic the games become the more apt that the players will become desensitized.

I saw this documentry on sleep walking, and there was this guy who sleep walked a war. He was lying in bed thinking he's sniping the germans while making BANG sounds. his wife was scared shitless

Oh man, that's pretty bad. Sleep walking through a war. That's just not good, probably part of a PTSD case.

Apparently is was just through playing video games.

Okay, that man should *definitely* not be playing those kind of games then. At. All.

*shudders* And that's why I'll never marry someone that addicted to gaming.

I'm a video game watcher, but at the moment, no one wants to play games while I sit and watch them. It's sort of strange, really.

Really? Most of my family doesn't seem to care. I only hate it when they just randomly blurt out what they think you should do. sweatdrop "ZOMG DUN GO IN THERE!"

I remember when I got Kingdom Hearts, my Grandpa watched as I played.

Mysterious voice: You know nothing of this world...
(later)
Me: I'm stuck - what do I do next?
Grandpa: I think that guy said you need more knowledge.

I love my grandpa. ^^

XD Nice, you have family that actually tries to help you. I get:

Sister: Kinda b.s graffics are these? They look like blocks... (Sagafrontier)

Dad&Uncle: XD This is the most polite battle I've ever seen. (La Pucelle)

Cousin: Can I play? (everything)

How did we go from webcomics to games again? Oh, wait, it was the comedian. xd
Yeah, the only video game I tend to play is "Animal Crossing" though, I don't play it much anymore...

Grr, I hate it when my brother starts telling me how to play. I always shut him up with "if I'm playing so crap why am I the one who's winning?"
