 I think this would apply to MOHAA objective, or even more realistic games like America's Army of OFP more than it would to CS.
 In America's Army you're pretty much "charlie foxtrot" (cluster f***ed) if you don't work as a team.

 Yup, some korean guy played counterstrike for like 69 hours a few months back and dropped dead at the keyboard.

 I know, the media is sooooo stupid!  hake: 
 "Computer games teach you how to kill"  eek:
 
 Yeah, right, if you use a keyboard or a joystick to kill a person.  hake:
 
 People would just rather place the blame on computer games rather than accept that there might actully be something wrong with their kid or society as a whole.  hake:

 Yeah, a kid is most likely to see an R-rated movie than a Mature game. What the hell. 1, it's cheaper, and I bought one at Wal-Mart when I was about 11. |

 I hate those fucking bastards in the media who keeps saying "Videogames will make you corrupt" and whenever an event happen like the shootings in the skool, they blame it on videogames.  If they dont' know anything, they should jus keep their mouth shut and let videogames dominate the market |

 They aren't talking about the ergonomic side, moron. They're talking about the actual game, and types of things IN the game that you're exposed too... |
