Lagi nalang po games talaga yung ginagawang reason nila. HAHAHAHA. Nakakatawa nalang si Boy Presscon!

Bat di yung parents ang panagutan!

I should have done a better job in taking pictures lol but It's so hard to get an angle especially when other pips are here to enjoy the store as well. : )))

Here we go again with the same tired script. Every single time a real-world tragedy happens, authorities and clout-chasing pages immediately try to drag video games into the headline.

​Look at the actual verified facts from official reports:

-​Real Firearms Access: The guns used were a government-issued Glock from the Bureau of Customs and a personal firearm fitted with a Roni conversion kit.

-​Campus Security Lapse: The suspect drove a car straight into the campus basement to bypass security guards at the gate.​

-Mental Health & Bullying: Reports point to severe pressure, depression, and unaddressed bullying.

​Yet, what is the DILG and mainstream media zeroing in on? "Umano'y koneksyon sa Roblox."

​They literally admitted in press briefings that they haven't even done forensic examinations on the gadgets yet, but they are already stating "with confidence" that a blocky children's app radicalized him.

​Let's call this out for what it is: A total distraction tactic.

​It is so much easier for officials to blame Roblox, video games, or "gaming addiction" than to answer the real, uncomfortable questions:

-​How does a minor easily get access to a government issued service firearm stored at home?

-​How did someone drive onto a school campus loaded with firearms without being stopped?

-​why are school bullying and youth mental health struggles constantly ignored until it turns fatal?

Roblox didn't hand anyone a loaded handgun. Blocky avatars didn't bypass campus security checkpoints.

Stop letting politicians and news outlets use gaming as an easy scapegoat just so they can avoid fixing actual gun accountability, campus security, and mental health support. It's lazy, predictable, and ignores the root problems every single time.

Look at these clout-chasing sports pages taking a serious school shooting and turning it into an opportunistic graphic: "BAN ONLINE GAMES AND ENCOURAGE YOUR KIDS TO PARTICIPATE IN SPORTS."

Sports pages using a real-world loss of life to run a smear campaign against video games is pure weaponized hypocrisy.

Let’s dismantle this ridiculous logic:

Pitting sports against gaming is a false dichotomy. Playing sports and playing video games aren't mutually exclusive. Millions of student-athletes hit the gym, play competitive sports, and enjoy gaming with their friends to relax.

Sports don't make anyone immune to real world violence. Joining a sports team builds discipline, but it doesn't magically fix unhandled bullying, severe depression, or easy access to loaded firearms.

It completely covers up the actual institutional failures. Banning online games won't fix gun control, won't stop firearms from entering school gates, and won't replace active parenting or campus security.

Instead of showing genuine respect for the victims and focusing on real-world safety solutions, these pages are capitalizing on a tragedy for engagement, likes, and shares.

Stop using real violence as clickbait to drag down digital media. A basketball or a boxing glove won't stop an M16,proper gun laws, campus security, and mental health support will.

Hahahahah what if ban talaga yung game tapos may ganitong scenario ulit? Sino naman sisihin nila? Pansin niyo pangalawa na eto pero yung mga may ari ng fire arms na naka uniform hindi sinisi, pilit tinuturo yung yung mga online games.

Using the Gamesir X5 Lite matches well with the Z Fold 8 Ultra. Been playing the android ports of Tomb Raider and Red Dead Redemption. As well as playing Resident Evil Code Veronica X with HD Texture pack on Nethersx2 and Resident Evil Director's Cut with HD Texture on Duckstation.

Satisfied so far!

Can officials stop reflexively scapegoating video games every time a tragedy happens?

Like here we go again.

First it was Tacloban back in June, where initial reports instantly pivoted to the shooter's gaming history, leading to the CICC slapping an immediate nationwide ISP and app store block on Gorebox. Now, in the wake of the devastating shooting at Ateneo de Zamboanga, the very first thing officials announce to the press is that they’re going to do a "forensic analysis" on the suspect’s gaming history and chat apps.

It is the exact same lazy, predictable political playbook every single time.

Instead of addressing the massive, uncomfortable systemic issues,like how a 14 year old minor managed to walk into a school campus carrying two loaded handguns, or the total absence of real mental health interventions and anti-bullying measures,they rush to find a digital scapegoat to look like they’re "taking action".

And who pays for this political theater? Us. Every normal gamer in this country.

I’m sick and tired of politicians treating gamers like brainless sheep who can't separate fiction from reality, all to dodge the actual heavy lifting of fixing security, gun control, and mental health in this country. Banning mobile apps and scrutinizing Steam libraries won't save a single life. Fix the real problems.

Also I'm genuinely curious na bakit gusto ng putang inang mga bata nato nag magaya ng masama. Also whats the motive behind this shooting??.

Pilipins represent. I was exploring when i heard this. Game Ghost Recon Wildlands.

Anyone knows what type of cable to make my onikuma b2 wired? Ordered it online and there's no cable for wired connection even though the shop clearly says it's tri mode.

Started playing this months ago pero may on and off akong relationship with this game. Gusto ko siyang gustuhin, pero di ko magawa. Hahaha kayo?
