The truth for games

And they say that games have a effect on kids. well i have a stament to change all of that:


"Computer games don't affect kids. I mean, if Pac-Man had affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music." - The CEO of Nintendo, 1989

yes he is correct

darkened rooms = lan party :compute:

magic pills = pulsating blue ball :shock:

and of course the back ground music of the matrix

I find it humourous that all these scientist are argueing about something that is easy to prove either way.

Duh, people are influenced by the environment around them.  But people can also choose to change that as well.  Ultimately, it is the job of the PARENTS to monitor the kids and mold them into the responsible adults they should be, not the community's, not the church's, not the ??????, etc, etc, etc.
