All the bad press games recieve by the press due to false accusations of games warping the mind turning normal into the mad.Videogames do not give you epilepse they just affect people like strobe lights do.Sitting in front of a tv playing the classics may seem bad to your mum but doesn't it stop you going out and get involved in bad activities such as drugs and smoking.Games that promote puzzle thinking are good because they work the brain,You mat strain your eyes when playing track and field if you sit too close,big deal,who really cares as long as good games are brought out
