a lot of these guys are CONFIDENT in their video game character. If they could use that same confidence and apply this in real life, they could have it all.

WRONG. That means nothing. All that matters is that a headline contains the words: NEW STUDIES SHOW or A NEW STUDY FINDS.

That makes it 100% true. Don't doubt anyone who says NEW STUDIES SHOW.

:lol

One of my black buddies is the slickest guy around, and has a social life. You'd never think he's top 30 in the world at Halo. He's in the MLG, goes to competitions, and went to Orlando or some shit a while back, and made quite a bit of cash just popping rounds and shiz.

skyxx 08-21-2009 01:29 AM
^ You had to say that he was black :lol

if they could throw a "lightning bolt! lightning bolt! lightning bolt!" in real life im sure their confidence would go way up even if they were overweight

thats cuz all theyre good at are video games. its alot easier to be confident at something you excel at.

Cman333 08-23-2009 02:42 PM
I would definately agree with this article....

I know a few hardcore gamers.....ones that would live at home and just play games all day....especially wow....

They'd eat all meals in their room + drink shitloads of pop..... no work, no socializing

all super depressed and hate life....

AutozamAZ-3 08-23-2009 03:14 PM
hey as long as your happy - its all good.

one mans garbage, is another mans treasure

you may not like video games, but some do... some as a matter of fact LOVE to spend there whole entire lives playing games...

same with how some like to spend all there time on automotive forums
