and others, but those were more documentary style, this is not, let's go to the bottom of the barrel, the craziest, most out of touch news

reports

I've ever seen. I feel like it's always interesting to see what the mainstream media has to say about video games and what I've had to say about them over the years. Fortnite is too addictive. How many games put your children at risk of being pedophiles? There are a lot of fun questions we need to answer now, when I first started my research it was a slow, slow news day.

On news day the only thing the news does is fear Monger, but what would Monger be afraid of today, naturally, it was video games, they are too violent, too sexual, they increase aggressive behavior in adolescence, Players do horrible things like this using top of the line graphics. in surprisingly realistic detail, but where to start my research. I think I found the right place to start. The Mid-Missouri Internet Crimes Task Force says adults are now using systems like Nintendo Wii, Xbox, PlayStation and Webkinz to talk to children inappropriately. That's how it is. is the game and you actually create your own character house and even city and when you are connected to the internet you can talk to people from all over the country and the children have no say in what some of these characters say to them, for example, this character could be the A man in the California police is warning about tonight to ask for stopwatch footage of the Missouri children's tour it could be that or it could be the goose on the left it could also be her and the children have no voice as to what some of these characters are.

I could tell you, for example, that this could be the man the police are warning about tonight who asked for photographs from Cyrodil Children's. I can't find any legitimate reason for an adult to be playing that particular game. There is no reason. There is no reason for an adult to play Animal. Cross only bad reasons Anderson says adults who play games similar to Animal Crossing are probably doing so for the wrong reasons Abuse Crime Alert Anderson says it

will

take parents' attention to prevent this problem from exploding, which you'll find in A lot of these news reports from the early 2000s, like the news, try to frame the most innocuous things as a problem when really all it's about is parents knowing what their kids are doing right now, We know that only three children have been reported to be involved in this.

Anderson says this is not a reason to be paranoid, but it is something to be aware of. While it's not a reason to be paranoid, we're still going to produce a new segment to try to invoke those feelings of paranoia. within the time of your sponsorship, this is the best decision I have ever made or the worst decision is Chief.

I tell them that the clips they choose are always the funniest. It has many graphics. It has many graphics. No wonder gaming gurus predict Nintendo DS. It's going to redefine portable gaming the same way the iPod is redefining music. Well, stop the music because it's also redefining how vulnerable your kids are to child molesters. God, how do you explain to me how you got to this point along with the ability to play.

Nintendo DS comes with a feature called piktochat piktochat piktochat oh let me explain you open the DS unit, you turn it on, you press piktochat and your DS unit is an open book, anyone can write messages to your child, send them sketches, anyone who has a DS unit, the only reason anyone used it. piktochat was for drawing penises and sending them to your brothers while you were both laughing in separate rooms. Any other use of piktochat was illegal. Here's an example of what can happen with Melanie and Marissa upstairs in the bedroom. I was downstairs sending the messages.

What is your dog's name? What is your name? Where you are going to school? Where do you live? Where do you live? What are you buying? Where do you live? In this house where I'm sending you messages. Marissa's mom was watching as Melanie and Marissa answered my questions and she didn't. I didn't like what she saw, especially when I saw Melanie write in the address minus two four five. Granted, the girls knew it was me sending the messages, but they had only met me a few minutes before and I could have been a child molester and I remember Marissa chatting. with your friend in the other car, that means a bully driving could see your child in the back seat and start texting while you're in the front seat, totally oblivious to what's going on, oh my god who's driving and likes to try to join Picto.

Chat Lobbies The logistics of that alone make my head spin. A Colorado family is looking for answers tonight after saying the Nintendo gaming system they bought for their five-year-old son was loaded with pornography. Brighton Giles had wanted a Nintendo 3DS. year it was a 3DS that had porn on it when Santa brought it to him, he was ecstatic, but yesterday morning that excitement turned to horror when he turned on the gaming system, he found pornographic images on the gaming system, how do you eat that? What does pornography put underneath? 3DS, can you even do that? I said dad, dude, this DSS has porn and I ended up with Diaz and he just got up and walked straight to the phone.

I feel so bad for this kid, honestly I probably would have done the exact same thing. I probably would have been like "Oh my God, dad, I don't know what this is and then you have people filming you and like they're putting it on the news and it's like telling us about the porn you found on your 3DS I I I I don't know if they saw it, but i'll play it again when Santa brought it to him Santa the gift was from Santa Adidas with porn so this kid not only experienced something traumatic but he probably hates Santa now his dad He first called GameStop where he bought the system Giles was told the images were from a previous owner and were not captured before the refurbished device was sold, so who puts porn on the 3DS and then trades it to move on?

Think of all the dangers. security issues we've exposed involving online games and interactive sites tonight is different I'm so ready ABC 15 Investigator Joe Ducey takes us into a fake world creating real problems for a local family. He was so upset, I mean, he was just heartbroken. I mean, this was her whole Christmas, she's talking about real money lost in a virtual world, a world set in medieval times, a news report about RuneScape, it's said that an 11 year old like Gilbert's Timmy Easter can Act like someone much older catching sharks every shark you catch. worth a thousand coins oh man this hasn't aged well it looks like the stock price of the sharks in RuneScape has gone down a lot fighting enemies you

kill

ed him yeah you killed him yeah he spent years earning a high level in a online game called RuneScape Timmy and his family recently learned that this virtual world is full of real-life dangers.

He said: Excuse me, how can I talk to Slayer for a moment? Oh my god, he looks like a nine year old and his RuneScape name is Hell Slayer in just a few minutes. Timmy's password was hacked, his account was stolen with all these points and belongings emptied, they are his items and for someone to steal them without hesitation is wrong, let's have a moment of silence for Timmy and so many others whose RuneScape accounts were hacked. Thank you. be thinking who cares are just false points in a fantasy world I care Joe I care so at Christmas he was coming over and I told everyone that all the relatives gave him cash.

Grandma Claire Kephart says Timmy received and spent $140 real dollars to buy virtual money. swords and armor, how incredible. Grandma, give him cash so he can pay his RuneScape membership fee, what a great Attorney General Terry Goddard has another concern. They brought in an attorney general for this story. The sinister part of people, adults. taking the 11 year old somewhere else is the adult sitting the 11 year olds for personal contact ok so funny story this time my brother and I met someone on RuneScape and asked them if they knew where our elementary school and we agreed I met them and I was in third grade my brother was in sixth grade and we left a note at home saying we're going to meet this person we met online we're going to Ben Franklin we left it with our parents and we were about We were leaving and my stepmom came running out the door so like you didn't go there like you were freaking out and I couldn't understand why because I was so innocent at the time last year a Dutch court took the virtual crime seriously Prosecuting two teenagers for stealing imaginary objects in RuneScape there was a court case so oh my gosh let's move on so you can see right here I'm getting ready to serve all I do is throw that ball in the air and we're like oh my gosh so many televisions, mirrors and controllers broke during the week.

I remember we got it the day we went out and threw the remote away so quickly. I'm surprised we didn't. break anything, the accessories are definitely hooked completely, that's not a good idea and by the way, little Weaver, would you like that, Little Beaver would you like that and now we go back to the 90s when Pokémon It was really starting to take off, pokemania they called it before, they warned that if you haven't already been the most popular thing on the set of 12 years and less it

will

soon be coming to a theater near you.

Pokémon the movie, yeah, I went and saw that movie in theaters, man, I still got my old Mew cards, let me go get them, boom, look at that, that was the sweetest thing in the world to me as a kid. Look at that sick holographic, so what exactly are adorable Pokémon characters that become super-charged so they can battle? its enemies some experts say the entire Pokémon phenomenon is the enemy but some experts say the entire Pokémon phenomenon is the enemy destroy the American capitalist government in my opinion parents should not let their children watch Pokémon play Pokémon buy Pokémon cards have something to do with Pokémon, if that were my mother, I would have hated life as a child, watching all my friends playing Pokémon and how my mom is the only one who says no, you can't, it's dangerous, violent because the message is violence .

Alien, the message in Pokémon is violence, uh, wait until Call of Duty comes out, but a lot of parents disagree, I really think it's a good thing for kids because they learn to save their allowance to budget and they learn to trade. and being reasonable with their friends, they are finally parents. That makes some sense. I almost feel like this one report was the inspiration for the Pokémon Chin episode of South Park, as if its satire was spot on. Many school officials think the trend has gone too far. Am I the only one who misses Fat Pikachu? thecomments if you miss Fat Pikachu, school officials are discovering that Pokémon cards are responsible for fistfights and the constant trading not only distracts kids from classwork but also turns the playground into a black market.

Hi Timmy, I'll give you a Blastoise for your lunch money I feel like in the '90s and early 2000s, all these news reports were like fearmongering among kids because it was still something new to parents and they didn't know what to think. about it and the news was right. there's something like, hey, this is how video games and Pokémon are best for your kid, but the psychiatrist who had that last appointment said how bad is Pokémon. I guarantee you these people haven't seen any of the cartoons at all, they have no concept. All this guy I love this guy psychiatrists don't know shit Jairo, how do you answer the question? it's just collectible toys it's a movement it's it's crazy it's a phrase for little kids to have fun with adults are I'm not going to go into this too much, I think during the holidays it's guaranteed and I can probably guarantee you that it's still a year away and medium for this madness, it hasn't even peaked, but it looks like it lasted a good 24 years and is still going strong.

Actually, what else do we have? We call it Pokémon Pandemonium, as the map-based game explodes in popularity. flooding public spaces creating some problems Jenny Latimer discovered a memorial plaque for her son it became a pokestop where players earn foreign rewards OMG oh I don't know whether to laugh or cry laughing in Vancouver James Roy created a sign to stop players from trampling In his yard, three nights in a row we had people asking and trying to get in through the other gate in our yard and you know I thought well, like you know we have kale here, we can't have that trampled on.

This is probably the most Canadian thing I've ever heard in my life. Whats Next? New alert from the World Health Organization on video game addiction. The organization is now designating gaming disorder as a mental health condition. Gaming disorder. Michael Strahan, what the hell are you? doing on ABC News talking about gaming disorder some say it's about time we recognize the intense appeal of video games given the science that shows there could be some addictive nature to them some addictive nature for them just a little bit could be some nature addictive for them This morning, the World Health Organization raised a red flag for the first time by adding gaming disorder to its list of addictive activities, comparing it to substance abuse and gaming disorders.

It might be okay to give this its own classification, but like the phrase gaming disorder, it's just It's so funny, well, that should be fair. I probably have a gaming disorder. Every news report talks about video games and the dangers they have for children. It can always be summarized that only parents should participate in their children's lives. Anderson says that's how it goes. make parents pay attention to prevent this problem from exploding and recommend talking to your children as a parent there are some things you can do to protect your children so what this does is force parents to be parents oh moms And dads, what is your job? your kids are going to play games, play with them, you know, so you can really be there to answer questions and help them do it, and you know it's not always the kid with the problem, it can be the parent with the problem, you know ?

It means you have to be involved in what your children watch It's up to parents to control what their children watch It could be a growing addiction that could stunt children's development A doctor uses the term digital heroin It was only a matter of time before that we equated gaming addiction with drug abuse, they say he won't stop, he can't stop playing online video games, intervene in his life, man, tell him to get his butt off the computer chair, get out, that It's what my parents would do like me. said man, it always comes back to the fact that only the parents are involved in what is a typical day in Josh's life sleeping until 11 12 and then he would be up until one two in the morning 12 hours easily, okay, yeah, in instead of imposing any kind of rules. or discipline our son, what did we do?

We went straight to ABC News, why didn't you just take his computer away? I don't understand a big question, because we removed it. There were many problems in our house with this behavior. I don't have a kid but I mean, you know my parents took my consoles away from me when I went to bed and you know there were problems for a while, but it's like they're my parents, what am I going to do? You look beautiful. heroin because I'm an idiot Alan Christina wonders if Josh's brain can give them any clues about what's wrong, so they take him for an fMRI.

They are taking a brain scan on this 14-year-old boy who also plays video games. Just remove this. His yet-to-be-proven theory is that excessive gaming can change brain activity. Josh's brain scans are concerning. We have seen this type of neurological impairment in players who prefer to play Call of Duty Vanguard. There should be a lot more activity there. should be more red should there be more red what else do we have are the words PlayStation Portable will end up on your kids' Christmas list PSPs are fun, clean right, so why are they also known by the name PlayStation pornoble oh, No?

We don't want to ruin Christmas for anyone, but there are hidden dangers that parents should be aware of. We don't want to ruin anyone's Christmas, but there could be pornography on your child's video game console. Portable games are in fashion. Generation of teenagers who convince their parents. you're a must oh hell yeah dude playing Battlefront 2 yeah yeah dude that's the right footage that's the perfect footage. Inside is a high-powered computer with a Wi-Fi connection that can access the Internet. Hackers will watch your children over the Internet. for the kitchen in the living room but with this you can take it anywhere and that opens Pandora's box what's going on how to build a Ku Klux Klan bomb oh my god it went from zero to a hundred so fast that a kid from Minnesota got in in trouble when he brought his PlayStation Portable to school.

This is an incident that opened our eyes to a challenge. Jeff Harris showed his friends how his PSP could show pictures of naked women and that boy was the hero in high school. I like how they said. that, in a challenge, that that is just perfect porn, it is not the only danger that exists, what is hate, violence and the means to eliminate the most lethal ones, all can be accessed through gaming devices within white power internet hook up websites who the hell is what kind of teenager? Going with that guy means you can't put iron crosses all over a website as a warning sign that you should leave immediately and if you don't leave, you might start reading and buying hateful ideas.

There, the greatest danger of all may be. a child predator posing as another player, each of these men is all the same and why do they have RuneScape footage? Could you wait? Could you play RuneScape on a PSP? That would have been pretty sick. Oh, this is a classic, right? here Mass Effect sex scandal sex Box the new video game shows full digital nudity and sake, it is a new role-playing video game that leaves nothing to the imagination Mass Effect is what it is called, it is made for Microsoft's Xbox system and features some in some Parts of this you'll see full digital nudity, go figure, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's why it's a masterpiece, baby.

I'm pretty sure 90 of the clips I collected are from Fox News and the players' ability to engage in graphic sex. and the person playing the game decides exactly what is going to happen between the two people, if you know what I mean, pressing X to push is what you think makes me laugh every time I hear a company say you know. There's all these controls in there that you can track time and you can tell, but basically Pandora's Box is open, let's talk about who the video game is for, it could be for adults, but if you look at the statistics, who is playing video games. but teenage boys not their parents, so that's the first thing that hurts this.

We know that all research shows that violence has a desensitizing effect. Well, sexuality has it too. No, it doesn't make you stupid, and that's how they see women. seeing them in these as objects of desire, you know, hot bodies, I mean, no, they don't show women as values ​​for anything other than their sexuality and it's a man in this game who decides how many women he wants. being with Jeff Keeley is going to ask the question I want to ask and it's going to be a lot of fun, okay let's get Chef into this, completely wrong, yes it's completely wrong, first of all you can play as a man or a woman in the game Cooper, have you ever played Mass Effect? ​​No, that's it, that's all you need to know, that's all you need to hear, we can move on to the next segment.

Now you like how he does it. This is a full report and it's so I'm sure what you're talking about, but you've never played the game Cooper, have you ever played Mass Effect? No, no, no, well, I think what's interesting about what we're talking about. You know, sexuality in media is one of the best things about Mass Effect for people. Those who have played it know that it is a kind of Choose Your Own Adventure story and does not force you to overcome any situation. You can play this game without the sexual situation happening correctly and the young man choosing. not having sex that's what they'll choose it's not a simple choice but Cooper it's not a simple choice you don't change the game he says would you like to have sex or not I love that Jeff is like Shilling for Mass Effect in this Fox News segment and this lady who has never played it and doesn't know what she's talking about is acting like she's haughty and powerful, it's like modeling your life and I think it's a much more powerful form of communication.

Honey, I have to continue with the research and the research says that there is a new study out of the University of Maryland right now that says that children who play video games can't tell the difference between what they see in a video game in the living room. Maryland is full of idiots, man, even when I was three I played Mario 64, Pokémon Red and Blue, and Starcraft. He knew the difference between real life and what he was seeing on the screen. I must continue with the investigation. Did you just call him honey? Oh my god, you are an unbearably fantastic game and sex is a small part of it.

Alright, thanks so much to Jeff and Cooper, let's get to the panel real quick and get your thoughts out there. They were given about a minute to discuss this. Before we continue, come on, Fox, we have to interrupt you. Jeff is telling the real truth of the game. We have to cut it and we have to continue our narrative in the adult only rating, which is the highest rating it can have, so first of all. the board that rates them needs their heads examined and this made me feel old watching this, what happened with Atari, pinball and Pac-Man.

God, you're old, you were so old, you were, you were even older after this clip, be careful, here, let's face each other. There are all kinds of bad things that come through the Internet through video games and the reality is that I would say that the government cannot and should not censor everything that goes through the web and video games, at the end of the day, it is such Like Chet said. It is up to parents to control what their children see. Finally someone at Fox News talks some sense. Brianna is describing the first time she accidentally stumbled upon a strip club on Roblox and that's where we'll end the day, but I hope you enjoyed the video.
