Playing Gears of War can improve your eyesight and ruin your conversation skills.

OH YEAH!

So what you're saying is that it's not a good thing that I have 20/20 vision?

That said, I'm sitting here writing this between classes instead of talking with classmates...

duh, we've known this all along, the rest of the world are just non-believers.

proof: jack thompson hating on games, being an attention whore. my solution: ignore it, it'll go away.

besides, like i said last time this was posted: when you're playing gungame deathmatch in CS:S, turning corners you have to spot targets, distinguish between friend and foe, and attack in less than half of a second, otherwise you're dead. especially on maps like deagle and fy_barn, where they're extermely cluttered, and not always well lit.

I read somewhere that online porn reduces likelihood of rape and games like GTA have shown to reduce street crime. I'll see if I can find the article.

Video games do help improve your visual searching pattern but they don't improve your actual eyesight.

QFT. You might notice more things...but you won't actually see better.

Plus, I don't trust Fox News.

I found my reaction times drastically decreased after playing CSS for about a month. Though I can't say anything about my eyesight... It's probably gotten worse (though I can't say that had anything to do with games either; my family generally has sorta bad eyes, i'm going on the longest without needing glasses)

Who in this world would?

I prefer it, but that's just because Foxnews, unlike most other news broadcasters, tend to have more conservative views. I think they all report the news just fine, but NO broadcaster ever presents a completely unbiased view. I just happen to like the Foxnews bias better.

They can be a little dumb sometimes.

I don't understand what to look at?

The obnoxious mocking of his hanging.

Yea I'm with Ravnz and shadowkhas, I dont really trust Fox News.

Well, at least they've not incorrectly stated his death, as CNN did to many famous people:

I honestly don't care who you watch or trust. I just found this funny (it would be as funny even if it were foxnews to do it).
