In Asia, no one believes this BS... Hell, in Korea Gaming is like a national sport and it can be viewed on TV.
I saw a story about Korean gamers on the Discovery channel (Foxtel) it was sweet how they are into it.

They get into a sponsored house, have food and everything givin' to them.... must play games 6 hours or
more a day.

It must have been an old show as they were playing Starcraft allot... but yeah.... full time sport on TV
and trips over seas to compete.
Actually, they still do play Starcraft, that's like 8 years since it was released, but they still play it. Almost as bad as people still playing XCOM: Enemy Unknown.

Thats why I love Chaser (The Chaser's War on Everything)
They make ACA programmes like ACA and Today Tonight look like dumbarses when they take the mickey out of them.
Once, they tallied how many times ACA and Today Tonight used a giant stamp saying "Shame"
Today Tonight got something like 54 in a month compared to ACA's 60 something.

A Current Affair is an Australian TV show that has always blamed Video Games for violence, sex and other things.

I mean, I play WoW, but even I have a girlfriend and a life, but this guy, ugh, I pity him.

Next thing you know they'll blame BF2 for the Iraq War, or Final Fantasy for teenagers becoming violent sexual deviants, it'd probably go along like this "Hey, this game is called Final Fantasy, and it's pretty friggin' awesome, but it has an EVIL DARK SIDE (oh noes D, it has violence and BOOBS, it'll turn your kids into sexual deviants. This, is Bob, bob recently turned 18, and he later had sex, we blame this on his favourite game Final Fantasy X".

Perth citizens, it's on in about half an hour, so get ready for the stupidest and funniest media report ever to grace TV.
Isn't the war in Iraq caused by BF2? OMFG LIARS! They lied to me!

What did the media said in the beginning when games like Carmageddon, Mortal Kombat 3 and GTA came out? Yep, too much violence. And people might start kiling each other...
But WoW? WTF...thats a game for girls!

The discussion nowadays in Holland about gaming is that a lot of addicted people start showing up. Most of the time the game-addiction goes in combination with cocaine or weedaddiction.
One guy even had a bottle near his computer to take a leak in. And his parents didn't dare to comment, cause he was 250 pounds and was a little agressive...
Lock m up for a week or 2 i would say!

Look, if he wasn't playing video games, he'd probably be in some mental institution or prison after trying to kill people for no apparent reason.  Video games give the mentally retarded things to do.  It keeps them quiet and safe, so actually they are a really good thing.
