My point wasn't to prove that CoD was a bad game (which you're trying to make out I am), it was to prove that it can affect peoples lives. It affected my closest friends life and he's given up on school completely because of that one game. Yes, it was his stupidity to continue playing, but it would not have happened if he never played it in the first place. I know CoD isn't the only game that can affect people's lives, but it is one of the main ones. I rarely ever hear anyone ramble on about how great on of Mario's games are, most of the time it's CoD and that's why I blame that game more than any others.
