You're talking about two totally different things if you're talking about somebody who is addicted to video games and can't get off the couch that's completely different from somebody who happens to be older and just likes playing video games

I'm not trying to bash anyone. It's just my opinion. It's kinda like the 40 year old guy that watches cartoons or makes a bunch of south park references. Or the 40 year old guy would would vote for some comedy central comedian if he ran for office. I see that as bad decision making.

I enjoy playing Halo 1 from time to time. Maybe once every six months. If it's an occasional thing, I don't see a problem with it.

What is wrong with watching cartoons? Have you seen what passes for good live tv these days?

I stopped watching animated entertainment before I was a teenager. I like watching Frasier reruns. Best sitcom ever made.

wow you're cool, i wish i was more like you. Anybody who enjoys the satirical wit of South Park or the classic jokes of the simpsons must be an irresponsible child. I mean how many adults religiously watched The Simpsons in the 90s when it was at its peak?

BTW frasier was great, but not as good as:
Will and grace
Seinfeld
Cheers
All In The Family
Roseanne
Taxi
The Honeymooners

you do realize the simpsons is not a saturday morning cartoon, right?

curious, what are your thoughts on comic book movies like Iron Man, the Avengers, Hulk, Thor, Batman, etc.?

That's pretty sad and a good indicator of our downfall.

what about board games? would it be equally sad if a 37 year old enjoyed playing candy land, monopoly or even Uno? (i know it isn't a board game)

Sure, if they are playing them with their kids. A 37 year old gamer who spends hours on end being addicted to video games is another issue. Especially when they have kids.

Quick question for you... If being addicted to video games is a problem is it not also a problem to be addicted to message boards? In the month you have been registered to this site you have spent more than a week of total time on this site. That is more than one hour for every 4 in the day. Video games are a release and a way to get away just like message boards are.

I'll put it to you this way. I'm not letting my blood pressure rise over someone insulting my preference in entertainment. You sound very reasonable. As long as no one says anything bad about your WOW subscription, you're good.

Glad you like Frasier, BTW. At least we have that in common.

I had a buddy back in college who loved the college football version of that game. He would play it for days. I played it a couple times. It was alright. The only game I really liked as an adult was the Halo campaign.

OMG wow

I'd rather someone be addicted to videogames, comic books, and cartoons as opposed to hard drugs. Come on, is this sh*t a joke? And FTR, other than the NCAA series I don't play videogames and I play that once maybe 2X a week. I don't read comic books but I enjoy South Park from time to time. The TV I mostly watch is either the History Channel or sports, and if there was an addictions I'd be addicted to message boards.

The level of anger generated by a few grown adults when you make comments about a cut off age seems to support the notion they are too involved/

"That's pretty sad and a good indicator of our downfall." You basically called any adult that plays video games pathetic and a contributor to society's decline. So you'll excuse people for getting a little upset
