Blah blah blah another fear-mongering cunt with a thing against video games.

http://games.ign.com/articles/839/839653p1.html

Granted, it does make some sense, but the dumb bitch's descriptions of the games are a bit skewed. I've never played Manhunt, but I know it has nothing to do with snuff films.

"Speaking to the Detroit News about the extreme content of some of today's biggest selling games and franchises, Worthy said, "There is no way that anyone can convince me that the horribleness and gruesomeness of the crimes that we've been seeing is not somehow a result, at least in part, of the violent video game culture.""

This I don't agree with though. What do you attribute violent crimes wherein the person had no exposure to videogames, or the media, at all? If you're fucked up in the head, you're fucked up in the head, it's that simple. Enough with the blaming of video games. Blame the fucking parents for being so inept that they can't put their fucking foot down and tell their kids no. Blame the parents for not educating themselves toward media content in general. I'm sure these same kids that play these games also have free reign to movie that they shouldn't be watching in the first place. I've said it plenty times before, the problem lies in a lack of responsibility of the parents. 

I stand by my reasoning that if you blame one aspect of the media for shit, you have to blame it all.

Didn't they just prove that these games do exactly the opposite and relieve stress?  Anyway i totally agree, blame the useless parents, some people just shouldnt have kids

The excuse of violence in video games causing violent tendencies is pathetic.

Its usually a fail upbringing, or social network.

Lets ban politicians from watching corruption style films/dramas such as 24. Maybe that way they can stop being busted in brothels and involved in bribes, drug rings!

I'm pretty sure the whole point of manhunt is that your character is forced to star in snuff films.

Man, 300, so who's gonna be inspird to get their own army together and kill persians?

also LOL at this guys comment
Strange that they've missed off the worst one...
New Super Mario Bros: Encourages children to jump on turtles' heads.

Well, come on, out of the lot of them that's the easiest one to emulate... getting a turtle (to jump on)is going to be easier than getting a Persian Army (to wade through whilst brandishing a sword).

To be fair though...9. God of War-"A sea of unrelenting violence"... that just sounds cool.

Man, Ed Gein and Ted Bundy must have played a LOT of video games. Also... the crusades.

On another note, in the words of Penn and Teller, "There is no way that anyone can convince me" is the creed of suicide bombers.

*Warning, stupid post ahead*





1. Grand Theft Auto
"Allows to players to act out crimes and rewards players for doing so."

You're not always rewarded, you get wanted levels and lose all your guns/armour if you get busted or die - Awsm game, Mek recommends you play every single GTA out there, ever. From GTA#1 to GTA:Vice City Stories

2. Manhunt
"Revolves around the making of a snuff film."

Which is awesome, agree? Mek Recommends, although it does get hard but the sheer violence is worth it - also gives inventive ways of killing people, see Hitman below for more

3. Scarface
"Involves buying and selling drugs and killing hundreds of people."

Dunno lol, not played it, but sounds like my type of game. Mek Recommends

4. 50 Cent: Bulletproof
"Rapper 50 cent is involved in a web of corruption, double crosses and shady deals that lead him on a bloody path through New York's drug underworld."

Shit game, don't play it. He's right here, don't bother with this game.

5. 300: The Video Game
"Invites game room gladiators to slice their way through the Persian army."

What Cyborg Ninja said

6. The Godfather
"Opens with a 'child's version' of the player witnessing the murder of his father."

lol

7. Killer-7
"Experienced adult gamers call this the most violent and twisted game ever played."

O rly, does it have decapitation via a wire, or shoving a running chainsaw through someone's skull (see:Manhunt), I'll be the judge of this. Adult Gamers like games like Final Fantasy and Oblivion, screw those guys

8. Resident Evil 4
"Shoot outs involving massive crowds of enemies in large open areas. A typical play-through can result in the killing of up to 900 enemies."

Zombies, it's ok to kill Zombies

9. God of War
"A sea of unrelenting violence"



10. Hitman: Blood Money
"Self-proclaimed 'most violent' game of a series. This game glamorizes killing."

If you want to play a game that teaches you how to kill people and get away with it, this is the game. Mek seriously recommends
