That made more sense than the bible itself. It was simply amazing, and I agree with every word they said.
...
Do not turn this into a discussion about the bible. Please...

So now all of a sudden, they are promoting video games, rediculous!

I want to go read that book.
Their studies make sense though, I play shit load of video games and I haven't been in a fight in five years. And that wasn't even a real fight :lol:
Stupid ant-video game people like to generalise us all as serial-killing bastards.

Finally, Something from Xplay that isn't comedy garbage. This research is cool, I see in less than 20 years V.games will be just as accepted as movies.

In 20 years the vast majority of people against video games will be dead or retired, so its all good.
On the research: Good stuff, I find it funny that everytime that a negative piece of research is published, it gets re-printed in many newspapers and featured on news shows. Now we have positive research and not a peep!

The research is great and it produced desired results for gamers and all, but how much did they say they spent on their research????????
Don't they have better things to do thing that money - like, I don't know, perhaps they could put it towards this little problem we have called world hunger.

Heh, that's great. I think that promoting things like this and sticking up for games will actually be a benefit to society. If gamers see this, they're going to agree with it, much like we do, and therefore think even less of relating video game violence to real life.
@ Roy Campbell
I didn't catch the cost, but at least its not a waste of money on something totally worthless...like many other commercial products and commercials. I agree with you though.
