re: Do you have any respect for adults who regularly play video games?

Video games >>> trash tv

you sound like a piece of shite that would go through a garbage bag that someone left on your lawn, find their name, find their facebook, and call their work to get them to come pick it up.

You sound like a dirtbag who may throw their trash on someone else's property.

I tend to respect people who do the things they are supposed to do. You take care of your family and put them first, do the best you can at your career/job to make ends meet and treat people with respect then I will respect that person.

As long as that person isn't abusive/neglecting their family I couldn't care what they do on their free time.

Want to have a cold one after work...Total respect. Come home ever day get drunk and abusive to your family...no respect.

Want to game in the afternoon on your free time...total respect. Spend money that SHOULD go to your family or spend your time neglecting your family to play games...no respect.

Gaming is just a form of entertainment. Nothing wrong with it as long as it isn't abusive (like every other form of entertainment).

I agree. We all need an outlet. Life needs to have fun and entertainment. Tigerdroppings provides that outlet for me. I would rather play video games than have someone addicted to drugs, sex , crime or gambling.

Define "all the time". Like, instead of doing other necessary things, shirking responsibilities, etc, or just plays games instead of other leisure things like watching tv or posting on the Internet?

Because hes not a real man

Just curious, but how is watching football all day on Saturday and Sunday any different from someone who plays video games?

Personally I would rather watch football all weekend, but either one, you're staring at a screen getting nothing accomplished.

To each their own. Whatever makes them happy. For him, golfing might look ridiculous.
