Poll: Gaming Warnings?

[Azraellod]

no, i don't.

i don't really see those as a realistic threat unless they somehow built the console really badly.

now if it was along the lines of "this console has a bomb inside and it will go off if you don't follow these instructions" i might pay more attention.

I take no notice of gaming advice about getting headaches and eyeache if I play for too long. Indeed, playing for hours at a time hasn't affected me at all, apart from the headaches and the eyeache...

Even when I felt my eyes starting to die I heeded no warning. I paid the price.

Getting pink eye because you played a game in the dark for over 6 hours straight is part of the gaming experience.

Warnings are just there so that no-one can sue the company in the chance that something really does go wrong. They do nothing to protect the customers who are really vunerable.

I am short sighted now, but it was worth it.
