Yeah we are very jealous that we dont look like these nerds who can't keep their mouths closed.
Are you kidding? They're probably talking.

You actually do seem very jealous. Every thread that references MLG, you come in and act all "high and mighty," talking condescendly to people that you don't even know.

You call them nerds.......do you know them? Do you associate yourself with them? Do even know how they do? No. You just post everything off assumption, and frankly, it's a bit pathetic.

Either get to know them, or leave them alone. I truely think you're just jealous that people are that good at something like video games, and have the chance to make money off of something they love to do.......

You are all loved beyond measure.
I, like you, am a light-sound-vibration complex that resonates with others. I have hopes and dreams and ambitions, just like you! I AM, and so are you! Yes, we are one and the same, you and I.

why dont i play video games for a couple days?? hmm.... maybe because it is BAD FOR YOU!! dont you guys get it? playing video games for a living is NOT good for you!! if you do REAL ACTUAL work in a REAL JOB, it is good for you. it gives you a sense of labor and a job well done, and on the other hands all video games give you is bad eye sight, 100 more pounds, and pimples.


God, this was stupid.

Are you trolling or are you just an idiot?

The only legitimate concern you have is that gaming, as a job, is not that productive for society. To which I would respond that it's entertainment for a lot of people. Hell, look at Hollywood. Do a lot of those people have "real" jobs, by your definition? They provide a service.

I agree with Odien and Iceman: you're jealous.

Well my friend...Whats your job??? What do you do that gives you a sense of labor and a job well done???...Seriously come on you as well as i know that if you were signed a $250,000 contract to play a video game for a few months a year along with day to day practice...Wouldn't you do it???...Maybe just maybe my friend you don't have enough skill to be somebody in the big leagues of professional gaming.

You really do make a lot of assumptions. I play video games a lot more then I should, and I have 20/20 vision, am almost 6 feet tall and weigh 120 pounds, and have barely any acne/pimples. It seems Iceman was right, you're jealous of the pros who make $250,000 for playing H2. Now you're gonna say they have no lives, but you'd just be making assumptions again.

LOL I'm beginning to think he's just trolling for responses. Anyone with basic sense (and debating skills) would be able to have more of an open mind.........or not say such stupid stuff.

like i said... WHY THE -blam!- WOULD I BE JEALOUS? when i have a real job, a beautiful girlfriend and a great social life OUTSIDE. what could be better than that? oh yeah, playing video games and being antisocial. yep you sure got me there.


generalizations fail

what does having a beautiful girlfriend have to do with this? Why are all gamers all of a sudden anti social? How much are you paid in your real job? Outside? Hmmm like all over the country not in your house outside?

btw, of course you would think your girlfriend is beautiful

my dad has a real job makes more than 500,000 dollars a year but he doesnt have much of a social life and im damn sure that he would choose getting paid to do something easier (like video games) then what he does now

society doesnt need to be healthy

Who cares about pros? Wow, they suck at life and play video games. Horrible...

lol. amen. I've never played with a pro, but if I ever did, I'd probably get totally owned, because they play ALL day. I'd take a social life and a NORMAL paying job over NO social life and 250,000 any day.

So then why not drop it already? Take your job, social life, and girlfriend, and leave the pros to their lives.

Better yet, take your generalizations elsewhere. This isn't a forum for bashing people for playing video games.

No social life eh? Just because they spend more free time than others playing Halo 2, they have no social life? You're so right [sarcasm]

You're not quite the sharpest tool in the shed, are you?

What does one's job have to with a social life? They spend part of their day doing a job they enjoy, a lot of time at publicity events, and regardless of how they spend the rest of the time they're antisocial?

I could just as well say that you spent 8 hours a day at Burger King, and therefore are a pimply-faced loser with no social life. Or maybe I'm wrong; perhaps your oh-so-important job is actually somewhere higher up. Wendy's maybe.

well good for him... i know i cant control how people want to live their lives but one of these days, you guys do have to face the fact that its up to you to make the right decision of what you are going to do for the rest of your life. and if you can play video games for the rest of your life, by all means go right ahead. but for those of you thinking to make a career out of video games, what if it doesnt happen? what do you do then? youve put all this time thinking you can make a profession out of a video game but you might not have stopped to think what to do if it doesnt work out. All im asking you guys is to just THINK before you assume your gonna make it as a "pro" video gamer. Like i said for those who are succeeding at making it a life career, good for you. but for others, PLEASE just please think. And i know its not up to me to make your decisions so ill back off...


That has absolutely nothing to do with your previous comments. Okay, so now you've established that it's difficult to get into the professional gaming arena.

What are your criteria for a "real" job, and why does someone, if not employed in a profession that meets those criteria, automatically become overweight and pimple-ridden, have poor eyesight, and whatever else?

Getting paid for just playing halo is EASY cash. i wouldn't mind playing halo 2 for money.
But it will get boring after a while.
