My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

I get what they are trying to do and they have good intentions but all they are doing is feeding into the stereotype. That's basically admitting that playing violent games breeds violent people.

But if people actually do this it looks like video games are the thing that caused all this.

I spent 90% of my money on women and drink. The rest I wasted.

Guys, it's just a day to stop shooters. ONE DAY. It's not a big deal. Chill.

Just because of this, On that day I will pop in a shooter and put as many rounds into enemies as I can.
Lol. Way to get offended over people mourning the loss of innocent life. If it isn't meaningful to you or you don't want to do it, just don't do it, to attempt to "counteract" their statement is both childish and pointless.

I mean, sure, the gesture itself is a pointless publicity stunt, but to actually waste your time to counteract it...

It's also pointless. What will not playing a shooter game for one day do? What change will it bring about?

Yay, more pointless slacktivism!

How about you play your games, and donate money to charities and funds that benefit victims and their families?

Do something that actually helps.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

Absolutely not, never, and no way will I participate in this ridiculous publicity stunt solely meant to benefit and profit this one guy. Nor will I participate in the myth that online shooters have anything whatsoever to do with real-world violence.

This guy's publicity stunt benefits only him, and is otherwise highly inappropriate and harmful to gamers in general. He can go to hell.

Did you read it?

I went to the guy's website and also watched his retarded YouTube video. My jimmies are certainly rustled right now, but it's certainly not mindless.

Unsuccessfully trying to bring science and reason to The Flood...

I'm sorry, but if you want to mourn those schoolchildren then do it in your own time in some meaningful way. Not playing fps games for a day means absolutely nothing, probably considering most would just go and play another genre.

  • 12.18.2012 4:26 PM PDT

This has to be the dumbest thing I've heard all day.

Way to get offended over people mourning the loss of innocent life

No, this is the action of a single person uniting mourning people and inciting them to do something that advances his interests**. He is drawing attention to himself and violence in videogames. If you hear about someone who dies in a car crash because of a drunk driver, you don't organize a day of sobriety. That is offensive to people who use alcohol responsibly, and the victims in a way. Why do I say that? Because the people who harm others will continue to do so no matter what actions already responsible people take.

**Irony: the plot of CoD:MW1-3.

The guy who made that video will be too busy shooting people irl to do it in video games.

  • 12.18.2012 4:29 PM PDT

I think I'll pass. Doing that benefits me in no way and it certainly doesn't affect anyone else if I choose to sit around and shoot some npcs.

  • 12.18.2012 4:30 PM PDT

Only shooters? What's the difference between shooting some Spartan with the BR and axing NPCs to death in Skyrim?

I was thinking of joining in, but meh, it's pointless and it won't achieve anything.

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

It's not going to happen.

Does that mean I can still violently stab people? (in videogames)
