In "Video Game Addiction," six former addicts tell a collective story of their path towards becoming a video game addict. Their reason for starting a video game is ...
There is no such thing as a Video game Addiction. There is video game
obsession, and over obsession where it consumes most of your time. But it
cannot be classified as an addiction. You can get pleasure from games, just
like you can get pleasure for picking on those less than you, sex,
masturbation, junk food, and exercise. When you are at school and you have
nothing else to do in your free time. You needn't be ashamed for playing a
game for 6 hours or more. This video is 80% bullshit. Dislike!
Just look at the diffinition of Addiction and Obsession: Addiction: the
state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is
psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an
extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. Obsession: the domination
of one's thoughts or feelings by a persistent idea, image, desire, etc.
What the players in the video described is a simple over-obsession of
games. They don't start tweaking out if they stop playing.
Yes video games have driven people away form things but its a socail
problem and has been explamed MANY times what your trying to do if your
makeing a center its going ot be pointless. There was a center in norway
thats doing the samething but it diden't work because its a socail problem
or other problems video games are not addivtive its a diffent problem. Its
like trying to treat a broken leg with coughing med IT DOES NOT WORK !
I've played video games my whole life. I've played competitively in Super
Smash Bros. tournaments. I've beaten every Metal Gear Solid game to date on
the hardest of difficulties. Take it from me and not some Koreans who think
they're "Core Gamers" because they play WoW for a couple of hours a day.
Anything can be an addiction. I'm addicted to air as we speak. Cant get
enough of the stuff.
There is a credible argument here in the beginning..We all need to probs
take a break from our pcs ps3 etc. now and again, great. But it got dark
there,lolz.
The last part of the segment is dangerous.. Make us feel worthless for
buying games, tons of people waste countless hours on other more
ridiculious hobbies.
+HDaviator For most people in America, a vacation is where your landlord vacates you from the building when you take time off work. Only people at my job going on vacations is the boss and people living with there parents. One guy sort of vacations...he lives in his car.
Just got done watching this movie and I'm sorry to say compared to the
classic, this one was just not funny at all. If anything, it was trying too
hard to be funny. Desperate even. From the constant sex jokes, to some of
the very predictable moments in the movie. Not even the issues they went
through were funny. At least in the classic film , the problems the
Griswold's went through to an extent actually made sense and wasn't just
unrealistic to a high degree.
(For instance, who the hell would put in a button onto their car keys that
when activated, caused their own car to explode?!)
Even when they made it to Walley World, they were STILL not happy in the
end. This is just another bastardized modern version of a movie I grew up
with and I will not be surprised if the classic movie continues to be more
remembered than this.
I guarantee that the original movie will still be playing in 20 years and
this movie WON'T. For all the young people who actually think this new
movie is great because you have been raised on a constant diet of
CGI,internet trash and stupid throw-away culture,let me enlighten you. The
original movie was FAR better and was loved by such a wide audience because
it relates to situations in the ordinary lives of Americans(albeit,with a
little exaggeration thrown in). Realistic scenes have been replaced by a
total divorce from reality.The '80s were not "cheesy". NOW movies are
"cheesy" (AKA mindlessly stupid).
+Dave Stang Wow. You have a LOT of anger about people liking this movie. Can't we all just like what we like? I like all of the National Lampoon movies, including this one. Let's all coexist;)
Great Movie just saw it it was hilarious I laughed alot the movie was a
great and everyone saying it's bad well you can't compare this to the
originals so why you judging just by the trailer?? At least watch the movie
first it's a great movie yeah the originals where funny and great but don't
compare it to this movie the originals will always be the best the comedy
is different because of how comedy has changed througout the years but
ether way Just have some laughs with friends and watch this movie I
guarantee you will laugh
+Savage Beast NOOOOOOOOOO IT'S NOT!!!! This is yet another REBOOT/REMAKE cuz there are no original ideas in the minds of the people who have money to make movies or videos.
