Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

Maybe this would be a useful graphic if there were sources involved for all the claims.

Don't get me wrong, I love gaming and I do it every day (and believe the benefits associated with it), but trying to disseminate this kind of information without any source is basically useless.

I think your preaching to the choir.

FPS have actually been proven to prevent peripheral vision blindness. That's why my ex's parents let their 12 year old kid play cod. Inb4 cod is gay, You have to admire their logic.

I would upvote, but it basically says "you make decisions faster" twice...

[–]WarPhalange 0 points1 point ago

I don't need any sources, I'll just take your word for this because it agrees with my opinions.

[–]SlightlyInsane 0 points1 point ago

You know, at this point I hate you so much that I just want to downvote literally everything you post regardless of content. Then again I suppose I do agree with your amusingly sarcastic comment, so perhaps I should just leave an upvote and a fuck you... Yes, that should do.

Fuck you.

Yea but then you turn around and kill people, so really they're super dangerous.
