It really amazes me that the "video games teach you to shoot" argument continues to survive. That's like saying playing Guitar Hero will teach you to play guitar, only even stupider because controllers don't even look like a damn gun.

I am surprised too. I mean, how is a controller and a gun anything alike?

That said, there are shooting simulators that use controllers shaped to be like certain guns. But those things are used by, like, the military and for some reason you never hear anything about them.

But oh no, when a video game is teaching people how to shoot the people making the accusation always point to Call of Duty or something and I just can't fathom their logic.

In their defense the beginners in my firearms course who played video games were much more accurate shooters than the beginners who hadn't.

...Because video games have been, well, you know, scientifically proven to improve eye-hand co-ordination and reflexes, to the point where they've been recommended by health professionals to older people in whom both of those are waning.

But no! Scurrrrrry video games teaching our children to be child soldiers. CoD is all about simulating waiting around doing nothing and shitting in a bag, after all.

True, it helps with that, but the way people talk about it makes it seem like it's the equivalent of getting practice on a shooting range.

Yeeessssss. I love how you can immediately tell who has and who hasn't play video games based on how they critique/view them.
