pixels harm people ok

Have you even played Bf3?
The graphics are bad. Everything is so desaturated that it all looks like stuff.

imo Battlefield 3 sucks

I've seen it.

You really shouldn't waste the money on it.

Thats questionable.
I can say that Team Fortress 2 sucks.

My parents do this. Though nowadays, I get games delivered and scold them for opening my packages or ask for a weekly allowance on my debit card and buy games on Steam.

They never know what games I play, though the fact my monitor faces the door is an issue. I was trying to play Saints Row: The Third and I kept having to check behind me.

Try getting it past her if you really can't convince her.

They are bad, never said they weren't.

You should just follow her rules because you live under her roof and she pays for your life, if she says no, it's no.

TF2 does suck, but at least it's free instead of 110 dollars.

Battlefield 3 is loving awesome. Buy it secretly.

IT has been clinically proven  that thoughts of violent video games after playing one (ie- dwelling on your best kill or something) make a person 100% more aggressive throughout the day and go to bed less happy than someone who did  not play a violent game. 

You're mom's a smart cookie.

What the forget no it doesnt

Show me proof of that.




Also, I've been playing games like Grand Theft Auto since I was 8, but I never consider stealing vehicles. How about you try to explain that?

There are tons of people that play Call of Duty, yet you don't see 10000 massacres per second all over the world, do you?

I didn't say they go around murdering people or stealing cars, all I said was that they are more aggressive, don't blow this out of proportion.

Also, I doubt a 13-year-old is a good example of someone to disagree.  You're hormonal and immature like me.  I just did a little research.

Same here. Except that I was younger than that :cookieMonster:
But yeah, I never thought about re-creating things from GTA as a kid...

Erm, no they don't. I play video games all the time, and I'm one of the nicest guys you could meet irl.
