Miss America Trash-Talks Videogames

[Mortons4ck]

I call foul on Miss America. I'm sure she told her mom she was going to play outside when she was little, then sneaked over to her friend's house to play Sonic.

...Really because it was my intention that you grew up in the 80's not flipping 1920. But at least I have another reason to add to my list of why we humans as a species have become nothing more then Chimpanzees, waving around our egos and idiotic ideas without any regard to decency or facts. Also, thanks for that scarring image of rush Limbaugh in a strip club ._.

I find it funny that she was interviewed by Major Nelson on XBL then that interview posted on the 360 dashboard after comments like those

Authority? From someone elected to that position by their outward appearance?


Next we'll have a furry tell us how to fight wars!


Yehs.

 

[Darth Caelum]

hmm, seems like an uniformed rant to me (i am experienced at such) but still, i am required to say.....
BURN HER WITH FIRE!

 

[EeveeElectro]

We're going to care what a talentless bimbo says who uses her looks to get to fame?
I don't like models... It must be so hard to stand there and pout. Imagine the qualifications you need for it!
Instead of playing games, we should throw up after every meal, follow fashion like little sheep and become a next model!

"there's something about taking advice on parenting from a woman whose career involves looking pretty and trying really hard to sound less stupid than her competitors that feels a bit off somehow." - haha, truest thing I've heard in a while.

But seriously, it might be good for some kids, but hell I wouldn't have given up any amount of gaming in my life for all the sticks in the world.

I think that ending qoute made this article, and made my day.

Oh man, yes, maybe it's easy for her, but some of us live in cities, some of us don't have sticks to play with, some of us can't go out without being almost hit by a car. (Well, if your a kid playing outside, anyway.)

But yes, I shouldn't let someone as low as this get on my nerves, I guess I'm a bit of edge due to being sick, is all.

Agree with you there.

Besides video games are becoming alot more popular and respected now. Just think about us telling our grand kids to play video agmes rather than play outside...wait thats bad isn't it?

 

[DragonChi]

first off...id like to say "fuck her"

I really really hate people who say shit like that. its just so narrow minded and ignorant.

secondly....despite the fact that games have so many positive aspects to them for any player (building up an imagination, teamwork, eye-hand coordination, cooperation, social skills to some extent)...just to name a few. this is not to say that the outside should be avoided. i love being outside. but seriously...making such an extreme suggestion really based on no pre-researched information..is really out of line.

There ARE educational games. or games that make you think and use your brain. you know...PUZZLE GAMES...strategy games....i mean...for fucks sake....AAAAAGHHHH. i cant say anymore..im at a loss for words here.

 

[Lexodus]

I ain't takin' advice from that fugly moron.

[sub]And that's all I have to say about that.[/sub]

 

[Canid117]

Why do we care about the opinion of Miss America again?

To play her little game though I ask this. When was the last time a little kid got run over by a car when playing Jak and Daxter?

 

[HDID]

hahaha, man you're all right about her. what a vapid ****.

 

[SageRuffin]

This, my friends, is why violence runs rampart with today's youth, not video games.

 

[MattRooney06]

Thank goodness

another oppinion on videogames by somone who dosant know the first thing about them

 

[Purple Shrimp]

I understand this is a predominently gamer-oriented website, but could you at least try to make the stories seem impartial?

 

[dreadedcandiru99]

And we should give a fuck about this chick's opinion of video games because...?

 

[Bat Vader]

The only reason she doesn't like video games is because her IQ isn't high enough to understand them.

Yes, I think parents should do a better job on what forms of media enter their house and what forms of media their children have access to but to completely trash talk video games and say they are bad is just ignorance.

 

[pirateninj4]

Rush Limbaugh....shudders.

Yea mate, I'm right there with you. The day he is considered a presidential candidate is the day I book my tickets back home to NZ.

 

[Aptspire]

the worst thing is, some people will actually believe what she is saying...
Then again, they are the kind of people to trust Fox News and Bill O' Reilly to be 'Fair and Balanced'...
I'm pretty sure 'Fair and Balanced' News Station don't get permabanned from interviewing the President of their own country :I
