Video Games... are Healthy???
 
Story here...

Well. Damn. My parents were among those that said my eyesight would get ruined... but now it makes sense, because I'm the only one in my family without glasses. Hmmm.....

Jack Thompson's going to hate this when he finds out that games may NEVER die now!

HAHAHA! all this time my eyedoctor's been right and my mom wrong. He's been saying my poor eyesight is form the lengthening in my eye, not videogames. Mom said otherwise. GREAT. I wish I could link this to her but she has no compy or access to one. She thinks its pointless.

Now I just need to fake having bad vision, and Xbox live gold is mine!

Not bad. Now all I have to do is get a shooter that comes with a gun. I prefer point and click to their ever more complex button controls.

Code:
To step forward, tap R2, hold X, and push the left or right analog
stick to move the corresponding foot forward.  Repeat for the other
side and alternate until destination is reached.
Seriously, who can play those? XP

Video games just gained favor in the eyes of parents. Right now, we should be focusing on gaining their trust, not showing them what giving support to video games lets us get away with. In 10 years, when video games are completly respected, and when Jack Thompson is dead, then we can focus on getting realistic guns, and knives with real shanking action.

I still think some video games promote better social status rather than good health.

There's also a bunch of video games that develop logic skills, and the like. I remember reading an article in EGM about a bunch of video games that are helpful, I might try to dig it up and find a couple of quotes from it later.
