Alcohol, cigarettes, PS 3 and X-box LIVE, a few of the things that kill the male folk.
as innocent as the games are, I'm starting to wonder if they make guys dumb!

mills and boons, nigerian home videos an infinitesmally small part of what makes the womenfolk stupid apart from their genetic make up of course.

Any that agrees games makes u dumber is infact dull. Cuz games does the opposite games like tomb raider increase ur sense of observing,while some lile silent hill makes u aware of ur little details.final fantasy makes u strategize even with games like soccer which exposes u to high level of critical analysis.things that make pple dumber r stuffs like "E! Channel,beauty paegant,oprah,gossip girls,mills and booms,romance section of nairaland,fashion channels,bilm's ridiculous post.games makes u smart.if u think otherwise u need to check ur health.[color=][/color]

Re: Do Computer Games Make Guys Dumb In Real Life? by Doubleen: 9:33pm On Nov 25, 2009

Do you mean dumber? I kid, I kid. . .Truth is, I don't think so. I grew up with Brothers and cousins who lived on nothing but video games and they are some of the smartest people I know and i'm not biased (ok, maybe just a li'l bit) cheesy

You people are too funny. So i guess this topic is in retaliation for Novel making girls naive in love thread, right ? grin

But i have to confess the OP thought it out before firing back rotfl
Re: Do Computer Games Make Guys Dumb In Real Life? by steeze(m): 5:01pm On Nov 26, 2009
@ poster I'm very sure you know that video games ACTUALLY make people smarter. It's an undisputed fact. Games like resident evil, metal gear solid, tomb raider, syphon filter and so many other games sharpen the intellect.

Making alcohol and cigarettes synonymous with the male gender, Ur kidding, right? We are crazy about video games, not alcohol and cigarettes.

things that make pple dumber r stuffs like "E! Channel,beauty paegant,oprah,gossip girls,mills and booms,romance section of nairaland,fashion channels

This things actually make girls dumber. Sometimes i think it blurs their sense of reality
Re: Do Computer Games Make Guys Dumb In Real Life? by Seadbari(m): 10:01am On Nov 27, 2009
Games actually makes people smarter! Playing games is not just all about pressing pads, it about anticipating alot of event occuring n doing that d brain is kept busy, Playing games is like participating in a debate(lol), u will try 2 more points (goals) than ur opponent!lwkmd, But watching E! Channel, hi nolly, africa magic, gossip girls, reading fashion mag, mills & boom, etc doesn't contribute anything 2 d brain but junks, lol [color=][/color][color=][/color]

If a person is dumb, the person will always be a dumb##s either a gamer or not. I don't think games make people dumb, I use to av friends that will play Age of Empire, Football Manager, burnout, etc for 18hrs a day while also stabbing class, they were not the best in class but I admired them, they were good planners, good team leaders ,good with details etc, If they want to read, they read long hours at a stretch.

Games have their disadvantages but adding dullness to a person personality is not one of its disadvantages.

Re: Do Computer Games Make Guys Dumb In Real Life? by Doubleen: 2:48am On Nov 28, 2009
@ edoyad, u are spot on. i wondered why someone would ask such an obviously annoyin question.

Insight ko, insight ni, na una sabi, guys would always defend themselves.

The OP should get back to me after solving all the puzzles in God Of War 1&2, Alone In The Dark, Silent Hill, Code: Veronica etc and decrypting Emile's e-mail in Splinter Cell: Double Agent (without trial & error) cheesy

So true. Games can make you either dumb or smart. It depends on the individual.
I've been playing games since the days game centers charged N5 per game and it has in no way made me dumb.
