Expensive start it has.

Emo part here:
+ Show Spoiler +WoW
I really love this game. mostly for the educational part. It teach us more than you think.
We are playing with players from all around the world so we are learning about different cultures. It makes us to do things on 100%. When WoW player decides to go to the gym he goes there EVERYDAY. He doesnt complains about everything because he knows what it takes to success. He even skip the bedtime or dinner so he doesnt miss the opportunity to get what he wants.
+ Its cool to see that people are actually rewarded for their skills.
WoW should be free to play so the world can be a better place. And yes I dont play anymore and I wouldnt but it was worth it. GL to pandas.

I'm so sick of all the TED talks where game designers come on the scene and have the balls to tell us that games are good for us.
Oh yeah, so games are good for us? Then why are they fucking behaving like drug dealers, talking about rewarding the player to the maximum and shit? Why is it good to put as much perfection and boobs in a perfect world so the players feels cuddled from all sides and just wants more, more, more?
And how the heck do games make people better if MMORPGs events are full with socially awkward and obese people?
This bugs me a lot. Yes, there are profound games which share the creator's experiences, dreams and expectations, games that make you think, games that make you better. But those aren't made by Blizzard, nor are they made by Square Enix, nor Activision, nor EA, nor any of these big names.
I guess WoW can be a nice experience. But not today. Not the way it's used and most of all ABUSED. Take any tendency a WoW player has, replace it with a random drug, and replace "Blizzard" by "my drug dealer", and it still sounds right.
"My drug dealer has a new release this week, it's gonna be rad, but I'd be nice if it was cheaper. Oh well, I kind of need it. I'm so excited, I hear there are a lot of additional sensations, and that I can go even further and deeper now... can't wait!"

Yeah, games are a good thing and not procrastination at all... All those games where we kill zombies will prove to be useful some day...
Keep telling yourself that...

Did anyone actually read the thread and not just the title. Because from the above posts it looks like they didn't.
Games develop some good traits and some bad traits just like every hobby.

Who are you to say any of this, ANY thing can have a negative spin on it, I know because I constantly do it to be a narcissist. And your example is flawed, you can do it any game. For example BF3,
"My drug dealer has a new release this week, its gonna be rad, but it'd be nice if it was cheaper. Oh well, I kind of need because Im so exicted. I hear there are a lot of new things and that I can go even further and deeper now...can't wait!"
Its not hard to try and say thigns are the "devil" take a look at the korean mothers and making people turn off games for people under 16 in korea.

If you hate games so much why are you on a gaming forum? And for the fact of the matter yes games can help you improve hand eye coordination, logic processes, and can help people with social problems. Just because you "kill zombies" doesn't make the game any less educational. I can tell you're new around here, it is ok though. Next time why not actually read the thread and come up with a real counter-argument.

1) I didn't say games are evil, but most of the videogame industry behaves like a drug dealer, sorry. Which is normal because hooked people = more money.
2) EXACTLY, this applies to most big-budget games.
3) Videogames are not "anything", they are the most immersive virtual experience since Cinema, and their immersive capacity goes way beyond anything we have witnessed before, wether it's books, movies, music...
4) Who am I? I'm a Cinema student who's taking a close look at the growing videogame industry and at the emerging theorycrafting that is happening right now, as you can see on Gamesutra blogs for example.

We don't hate games, we're just not brainless fanatics who want their daily fix no matter what. I love SC2 for its competitive side and the logic challenge it provides, but then again it's a strategy game. It will slightly improve your eye to hand coordination and your logic skills but mostly when you're still a child, past that point progress decays and you're better off reading the newspaper and actually knowing what's going on outside of your dreamworld. Unless it's your passion and you live it 100% not only as a consumer, but also a creator, being active in the community, theorycrafting, attending events, working towards the recognition of E-sports.
Developping social skills? Don't be ridiculous, people say that pointing out that they now have "virtual friends". Alright, some active members of true communities will have true online friends they will eventually visit, but most just chat with people online. What will such people do when you encounter a strong difficulty? Do these people really know the person you are behind the screen, with your family, your past, your body language etc? They DON'T.
Stop kidding yourselves. Games CAN be good, they CAN be beautiful, hell I'm a huge fanatic of earlier FFs, Zeldas, Abe's Odyssey, Okami, SC and many others, but MOST of games are just pure bullshit that was made with the ONLY objective to please the gamer and get into his wallet. This includes CoD, BF, WoW, FF12, KH, and many shitty products where everything is perfect and it's UNCONCEIVABLE to shake the player up or actually explore the tremendous and amazing possibilities that videogames offer us as the best media that has ever existed.
Also, way to be ironic, talks about counter-arguments but didn't provide any decisive arguments himself but saying "oh you're new", or "oh who are you?".
Edit: Well, anyways, sorry for hijacking you thread NIINO, I just wanted to rent about this new trend of talk that paints videogames all white. Painting them all black was bad, but the opposite is just as bad.

This is ridiculous, its fun and it has a price tag, it's not anything like a drug.
