It seems anti game sentiment has reached a new level of retardation. http://www.kmiz.com/news/story.php?id=13725 Well, then Thoughts? Who here likes Animal Crossing (In any form) and after reading that wants to partake in Police brutality (Ie beating who said that senseless) I'm not even a fan (though I think the game is charming) and This pisses me off. What's next? I'm a monster for being a fan of sonic?
Average media whoring on issues they have no knowledge of. If any of them acutally know anything, they know they need friends codes to do much of anything.
You heard it here first! If you know anyone 18 years old or older who owns Animal Crossing, they are pedophiles. Proven fact; I read that on the internet.
Next they'll say anyone over 18 years old playing online M rated FPS is a pedophile because most people who play M rated games nowadays are 13 year old kids. I can see how someone could use pictochat or whatever to lure little naive kids just like with a real chatroom, but... I wonder why MMOs haven't been hit by this kinda news story. I bet they have, like WoW, and I just haven't read the story.
It really makes me wonder how out of touch with modern society some people are. I remember working in a retail store at christmas time and having to explain to people over and over that video games are not toys and do not qualify for the % off of toys. I finally gave up trying to explain this to people and then showed them on the price tags how to tell what was a toy and what wasn't. This of course would bring me blank stares like I was explaining astro-physics to them. One of my favorite quotes ever was from a customer who asked "so you expect the customers to actually read the price tags?" My response was simply yes we do.
