Attacks in Paris

[kaz7]

Surely there must be a fine line between work and humanity though?

They do what they know without thinking i think and record what is happening
Running down there wouldn't have been very smart anyway,the police had it covered

Islamic State have claimed it

There are links Zin, but nothing has ever been proved. As George posted, it's all theories.

The thing with this area mate is the time scales... The original papers that were submitted into the psychology journals were around 2001/2, the games have intensified over the last 5/6 years in there realism, however, the effects won't be seen in 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation gamers but in 4th, 5th etc..... The reason is down to cognitive development in the service user, for example, those from the 1st pot (1st, 2nd and 3rd) are less likely due to ones age and ability to regulate through comparison, those from the second pot, confuse reality due to lacking the social development, normally because of age constraints.... This is indeed theory, a brilliant psychologist named Bennat, hypothesises the above... I'm inclined to agree pal!!!!

"The Paris attackers were members of a self-contained cell and had travelled to Syria, the BBC's Frank Gardner reports, citing Whitehall sources."

Looks like the west will finally get its war against Syria after all as a result of this "terrorist attack".

Coincidence much?

Twitter is full of old stories being shared as if its new, apparently Israels PM warned France about recognizing Palestine as a state.

Some proper far fetched shite flying about.

As sure as day follows night, within 24 hours of any atrocity there will be people suggesting it was a false flag operation and others claiming Israel was involved.

`swarm`!! That's says all I need to know about you.

Well how would you describe it Mr Sensitive?

Again, I attack ideas, you don't, that's the difference.

So I'm in pot 1.

I would suggest that although games do indeed look more 'real' these days, realism, has always been there, just implied, or in the head of the user.

Take GTA. Original a top down game, graphically poor by today's standards, it still portrayed a realistic city albeit one that was a cartoon version. Cars moved, people walked about etc etc.
The latest game is just a 3D version of this, graphically superior but still a similar game. Driving around, doing things. The city is still a stylised version of a real one much like the original game.

Both games, old and new, were/ have been slated in the media for causing violence in teens which is lazy journalism especially as it is based on theory.

Still, it would be interesting to see results. Genuinely.

George was trying to deflect attention away from a fucked up attack in the name of a religion, seems he has had the result he wanted.
