I think both porn and video games should be accepted in society

hehe me too

hehe yea

For someone who is the 'Poster boy for video games', I haven't really seen Dara talk or even do much about video games, the only thing I remembered was when he made a joke about GTA once.

But anyway, nice to see someone with a bit of fame defending video games. The people you see complaining have probably only really played a few games once or twice with the family and just presume people stay in their rooms all the time...

Yeah.

I don't get why video games get such bad publicity. It's as if it's just society's scapegoat.

Even the NRA tried to blame video games for some shooting somewhere. Which is ridiculous. I've played shooters like COD before, but I'm hardly a serial killer. Same applies to others, including those who mostly play shooting genre games

Yeah.

You're right, Gary

Video games get too much negative press

lol
