So this thread is 5 pages long..And I have read every post...
And this is what I have gleaned.... Leopard frog.... Has some really fucked up ideas...... I still cannot get over the tack that he claims he exposes his child to violence because his child watches him dispatching chickens on the farm... Harvesting chickens on a farm is not violence....
And the most hilarious thing.... Is that Bird Voiced Treefrog.... Still plays video games.... at 43....
And Whitebacon..... Whitebacon does not care... He often states he is peoples friends... And he has not posted sober in years..... He jumps on things that he thinks are funny... and backs idiots to keep the thread going for his entertainment...

Concentrate on solving the problem without letting the gun be an issue in the discussion. Good luck with that ever happening. They aren’t capable of seeing anything beyond the gun. It’s the old “never let a crisis go to waste” approach.

You concentrate on wearing people down. Civilized people get tired of the childish antics. Consider me, not a fan. Still drankin wino? Nope, the lesbian neighbors wanted their faces painted. The things I do for them!!!!!!

Bullfrog is a fucking idiot.... And you have been propping him up for most of this thread...
And I do not think you agree with him....
I actually think he is an idiot.... And are entertained by him.. And have been trying to see what bullshit you can get bullfrog to say....
And even if you do agree... you are harmless.... you made your money and checked out.... That is a character flaw of mine.... I cannot check out.... So now you live on an island off the coast of Belize.... And drink a liter of liquor a day (I believe that you said that)

I played Mario growing up. Never made me want to shoot fireballs at turtles or stomp on them. I've played COD and I'm a big HALO fan. Never thought this is just like killing someone. Of course I'm a semi logical and semi sane person. I converted to Sonyism about 10 year ago, so its been that long since I’ve fought a Sangheili in honorable combat. Yet “wort-wort-wort” is still burned into my psyche.

I've never played the violent video games. I played Mario a few times. That's about it for me. Never even seen any of the violent ones played.

I've never played the violent video games. I played Mario a few times. That's about it for me. Never even seen any of the violent ones played. There’s different levels of violence. Think about in movies the difference between The Dirty Dozen and Saving Private Ryan. Both are WWII movies with a lot of killing, but one is far more graphic (and maybe more realistic) than the other. Now take Saving Private Ryan and compare it to a bunch of horror movies. Again you have some horror movies that are only moderately violent or gory and others that are over the top and will make your stomach turn. Then again you have a spread between the realistic and the cartoonish. Both Saving Private Ryan and Natural Born Killers may be graphic, but one glorifies soldiers and the other glorifies murderous criminals. And then Monty Python and Saw might both contain scenes of people getting their limbs cut off. But Monty Python might be goofy while Saw might be gut wrenching. So it is with video games. There’s a spread between cartoonish and realistic, and another spread between glorifying common standards of good or evil, and another continuum between subdued and over-the-top. The video game industry is worth nearly $350 billion dollars a year. That totally blows all combined professional sports leagues out of the water in terms of revenue. The cat’s out of the bag. My generation and younger grew up with them and now raise our children and grandchildren with them. They’re as normal a part of our lives as the television, movies, and radio is to the earlier generations of the 1900s. There’s so many millions of games out there that there’s no way to categorize them all.

This morning I set up my daughter’s Switch to have access to Nintendo’s select SNES library. The original 1992 Mario Kart seems to be her favorite. Many great family memories of us playing it split-screen over at my cousin’s house. Pretty sure I never owned it for some reason in my original SNES collection. I do have it in my rebuilt collection. I probably have somewhere around 300 NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and Nintendo 64 cartridges. I have not played Mario Kart 8. Again, couldn’t tell you why.

I got 5 Fortnite solo wins. I cheated. There’s another one I’ve never played. I don’t do a lot of on-line gaming anymore. CoD got stale. The last time I did any on-line shooters was through my VR system but that was still years ago. I did recently enjoy Farcry 5 in co-op with my brother. Recently I got into a pretty neat survival game called Green Hell. Most realistic woods simulator I’ve seen in terms of feeling like you’re walking the woods somewhere (in this case, the Amazon). When I upgrade my VR system I’m going to get into the VR version.

We have a VR that barely gets used. Me and the boy have been working through a Super Nintendo emulator. Don’t sleep on Donkey Kong country 2. Great side scroll game. Also been working through some OG Tomb Raider. Great first person shooter/puzzle.
