Stereotyping is not a crime or a sin but it is a sign of maleducation and elitism. Just because some people are like that doesn´t mean that everyone is. Get your facts right. P.S. I´m thirteen and iI have an IQ of 130 so don´t assume that the youth of today is a deranged mob lost in their own fantasies. *big up the Anglo-hispanicos* Oh now I´m sorry that I don´t know the difference between good and bad that I´m a victim of my own fantasism and that I´m blind just because I´ve only got a PS2 and I enjoy gaming, but this is the first discussion I´ve been in online about gaming and I don´t think that the PS2 is the best console, i´ts just the one that i bought´.I won¨t accuse you of being arrogant because I´m not an elitist ignoramus that believes I am the only 1 that can see the faults of the world ¬(if only everyone was like this!)

Far too provocative to be heard but I felt like the guy had something right. The video games world is made of alot of people doing a lot of things around a central pillar. But none of them have common visions or goals. [...] [...] I read this yesteray (writen years ago but just published). Far too provocative to be heard but I felt like the guy had something right.

I'm in a gaming clan, and there are people aged from 15 to 50 who are all very serious (not immature), not at all ignorant (well maybe some of them, but that's just their attitude towards other people, and also, I play games so I can basically pretend i'm in a spec-ops squad, or i'm and evil invisible monster brutally murdering people, that's what games are mostly about, escaping from reality to do something you can't do in real life! This is such a crap thing, i've never heard of any journalist thinking they're games or wanting to be developers, that's why they're a journalist and not a developer!

And those who only play on one console are either ignorant or elitist. Huzzah for sterotypes. Games are dead! No good game has come out in the past ten years! …Because obviously being able to write means you either aren’t a gamer or aren’t a good writer.

AND I LAUGHED OUT LOUD! but hell! i can´t remember if it was ´cause you call sex just a "ditraction" (you must really have bad sex), or because of the sentence, that made me think, that you never had sex. People, i just came across this page over a wordpress-link. this is really a inside-the-gamers-world-community. open your curtains, let some light in (or try to go out. you are no vampire and wont melt in direct sunlight) and talk to some girls. byebye. and, by the way: the discussion is really senseless. the author wrote just his opinion (and is really right ni most of his points). hi guys (and girls! no? ok, as usual in gamers communities).

If it's anything I hate it's people who overanalyse any and everything just to look good for others. That blog was totally unnecessary. No one thinks you're smart, you only ended up making yourself look like a douche bag. I'm seriously sick of people who just have to comment on everything "at a deeper level" to gain respect from others. What a poser!
