If AA is so realistic then how come my soldier couldn't even crawl under barbed wire without getting stuck in terrain (granted, they've probably fixed that by now)?Masques wrote:
True, but the same people that get on their high horses because of GTA, Quake, Doom, COD, etc. utter nary a peep about AA. AA is far more realistic and just as "violent", but it has full government support and is a PR tool for recruitment.PBAsydney wrote:

The whole anti-games sentiment is absurd.
90% of the time when I go to buy a video game rated M, I'm asked for id, and I have a giganto flaming barbarian beard (when it's not trimmed). I've seen kids rebuffed by all sorts of stores. Like booze and smokes, it depends on the clerk. Only games operate a bit more on the honor system...Mek-Stizzle wrote:

I broke my arm when I fell off of a roof, so I blamed god for making gravity.
I love it when shit parents and poor decisions blame violent media for "corruptin' mah kids." Yeehaw!

COD4 is rated M?
Thats funny because when I play on Xbox live I hear little kid voices all the time.
Blame the parents.

Just to add to that well if games like Grand Theft Auto influence people what are racing game going to do? Influence people to Speed?
there are so many factors to blame then just games
example : " Blame Canada "
example : " Blame Canada "
People can blame all they want, but the games are still gonna sell. As long as that holds true, I don't think we have much to worry about.
If anything, the uproar may actually help to sell the games.

I'm not even sure why CoD4 is rated M. Its violence amounts to BF2 dust puffs, only rendered in red.Ajax_the_Great1 wrote:

Violent video games don't even make kids any more violent. Heck it pacifies them and gives them something to do. The reason poor kids get in trouble more than rich kids is because the poor ones don't have video games to keep them from becoming bore and thus having to find something potentially destructive to entertain them.
Totally agree, im grateful its illegal to sell rated games to people younger than the rating.
