Computer games make kids crazy and do mad things!

Faithless · 20 Dec 2006 at 22:29

So we've all heard about how computer games now a days are making kids in to murderes, rapists, generally violent etc, etc, but I personally think its a load of rubbish.

I grew up in the days of PacMan and that certainly never did me any harm. The worst I do is go out clubbing and have some bevvies with my mates.

You dont find me running around darkened rooms, bumping into walls and munching on pills.

Oh......wait

So you've managed to rip-off (badly) one of the most famous quotes on the Internet, and you don't even nod to the original source?

Bad form.

Yup - shame it's been credited to SO many incorrect people.

Marcus Brigstocke wrote it and he is one of the best comedians around at the moment.

Games do not turn people into killers... people are in control of what they want to do, they make them selves killers... they make them selves idiots.

It'll be a cold day in hell before I let you pedantic keyboard warriors make me attribute every joke I ever tell to its original source.

Do you do that? I highly doubt it.

OP: Good one, hadn't heard it

I grew up on space invaders and pac man and I'm fine.

Now where's my axe

I find that playing games keep me awake all night where I've not completed a mission. CoH is driving me mad!
