Whats the big deal? if your not 18(or is is 17?) then you shouldn't be playing it. Simple enough...right?

^ True. I have nothing against keeping violent games out of the hands of those that have no business playing them. Just as long as they don't ban them altogether though, and I'll be happy.

I really enjoyed reading how he called the ESBR broken by referencing only GTA:SA 'hot coffee'

That stuff is all ridiculous. If you play a video game, and playing causes you to go out and kill somebody because you want to act out the video game. There was something wrong with you to begin with.

Did GTA not have M on it??? It's still up to the parent to pollice all this crap... The difference between M and AO is non-existant... The age "requirement" is the same... If a parent will let a kid play M, AO is no different...

You know, something funny about the San Andreas thing:

Suitable for 17+:

Shooting cops
Running over pedestrians
Picking up hookers
Later killing hookers to get money back
Participating in gang wars
Drive bys
Stealing cars

18+:
Softcore porn with videogame characters that still have clothes on.

Thats stupid. No one said anything when God of War came out and had a sex minigame. WTF...

Videogames didn't make me violent. 10 years in the Army did.

Hey, look at the trend in the violence rate, as reported by the Bureau of Justice Statistics.

Quote:
Violent crime rates declined since 1994, reaching the lowest level ever recorded in 2004.
