    These articles with Pokémon Go slapped in the title are getting annoying. They are not about the game, or gaming at all.

    When Skynet goes live, all that pounding on your phones is going to come back to bite you all in the ass.

    Seriously though, this is as much a 'game' as it already was to walk down a street and tap a phone, something we've all been doing for years already. Tapping faster doesn't make it any more skillful or challenging.
    Trolling, being trolled, getting banned, yelling at mods, getting perma banned, making new accounts, and still trolling this site since 2004 =D

    @felixmajor its an outdoor game so they are about people playing the game but doing good something good so be thankful that getting more kids outside is helping kids do stuff like reporting crime. instead of sat watching tv all day.



    They'll be back to doing whatever they did in a short time, as Pokeman GO gets boring rather fast.




    On the flipside maybe there are plenty of people out there that enjoy the game! :D Lots of mobile games get boring really fast in my opinion. But lots of irl things are even more boring, hence why people opt into playing a mindless mobile game to pass the time. This one has a really big social aspect and will only get more updates & changes overtime. I'm not a big fan myself but I know people that like it and I'm mature enough to understand that. I mean who cares really. Lots of things that I don't like happen to be liked by others and it's none of my business telling them it sucks just because I think so.

    To be fair, everyone is screwed when Skynet goes live anyways. So I think we should let the poke-nerds enjoy the spotlight for a little bit, since the detractors annoy me more than articles about the game does.

    I'm afraid it won't be long until these Pokemon GO articles go south. People wandering around, finding dead bodies, reporting suspicious activity...

    I just wonder if they'll be honest and mention the trouble that follows was caused by Pokemon GO.

    Once again lets blame the application before we blame the people. I'm guessing you also blame guns and trucks for killing people too.
