Diamond Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 "Tetris' suggestively twisting and turning blocks, violent falling motions, and increasingly frenzied suspense are a potential influence on children," That's just...
Janmanden Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 It's actually a pretty good idea. I can deal with violence, wits and women, but vs. addiction I'm helpless. If all games were boring, uninspiring, unchallenging and non-immersive I would have no trouble letting go and actually have a life too... :D (Signatures: disabled)

Arkan Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Why, if I didn't know any better, I'd say this is an Onion article. "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta
Krookie Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 "Tetris' suggestively twisting and turning blocks, violent falling motions, and increasingly frenzied suspense are a potential influence on children," There was an article a while back that said something like Super Mario 3 was influence kids to destroy (or jump on) anything in their path weather it be kids, parents or goombas.

Arkan Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I hope this is real so someone can shove this in Jacko's face. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not an Onion reader, eh? "Of course the people don't want war.

kumquatq3 Posted December 15, 2005 Author Posted December 15, 2005 If anyone missed it, this is, in fact, a parody. Just a joke.
Judge Hades Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 How sloooow can you go! How sloooooooooooow can you go! (w00t)
Child of Flame Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 How sloooow can you go! How sloooooooooooow can you go! (w00t) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's not very nice Visc, calling people slow.
Judge Hades Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Oh lighten up folks. BWAAHAAAHAAAA! I also wasn't calling any single person slow. I was asking, in terms of relative speed, on how slow you can go.
Child of Flame Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 I've got my eye on you. You've dodged a bullet this time, but next time, next time Hades!
Judge Hades Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 Wow, I can dodge bullets. I wonder when I picked that feat. Was it when I reached 3rd or 5th level? Better check my character sheet.
Child of Flame Posted December 15, 2005 Posted December 15, 2005 The time Dialation encompanied with Celerity is so fun. It's all *Shotgun Blast* <Sidestep> <watch shot pass>
