    I don't know if this quote is true, but I still find it amusing.

    "Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids,we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music."

    I sure as hell didn't begin my gaming life from Pac Man...

    It started with the Commodore 64 and a game called Rescue On Fractulus...

    Gaming may not be Evil, but that game sure as ****ing hell nearly killed me sometimes...

    It actualy stopped my heart once, and gave me a phobia for flying Sims...

    Infact, I can't bare to play games that involve flying or water... Not water as such, just games like "Exhumed" for the PSX (Great game btw) bar that ****ing level that involved nothing but being raped while swimming for ages under water and being threatened with drowning all the time...

    Brrrrrrrrrr.....
