Fine, nerf the term 'skill' and just make it 'better'.

Your mad that people BETTER than you say they are more skillful. maybe they have more skill, mebe they don't. But the fact remains, They are better at it than you so they can tell you you suck shit.

COMPETITIVE GAME PLAY AT ITS FINEST.

So I guess the study that said surgeons who play videogames for a few hours a day are less likely to make errors is completely false. Real-life application to your "unskilled" videogame world.

Gaming is skill. It is a skill of how long you can sit on your fucking asses for so long and push buttons. HAHHAHAHAHHAHA. I fuckin agree that real skill is doing something like playing hockey or football or any other sport, not pushing fucking buttons.

I hope you are being sarcastic or something... because wow, video games take a lot more skill than you'd think. mainly games like Counter Strike... talk to CEVO players and you will know.

I guess people like jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendell doesnt have skills. I mean the guy makes 250k a year on endorsements alone, plus all the competitions he has won. Kid, do you know that video game is the next big thing since baseball/basketball,football ? Do you know that every 1 out 5 americans play video games ? That makes it 15,000,000 americans play at a daily basis!!!

Just because you SUCK doesnt mean that video game doesnt take skills!!! Get a grip! Your probably bad at everything in life.

YOUr wrong; to be crude, yes, there is skill in video games; despites that it just moving a mouse and pressing a few buttons. I have a friend who sucks at bf2 and i can even physically see why; he has probablay the most shittest motor skills ever heck he can't even type probably; he also SLAMS his mouse every times; he does not pay attention to his surrounding in RL and in video game land and gets claymored by me all the time. So yes "keyboard and mouse video games" do take "skills" same as typewriting.
EDIT: btw, calm down its just a video game.
