FFS they are GAMES, don't these people have anything better to blooming do.
Why don't these stupid people shut up and get a life. I as a parent decide what good or bad for my children.

Surely the point is that games which involve these scenarios are almost certainly 18 certificates. It seems to be constantly overlooked in these articles that these games are not intended to be bought by children.
Of course they sometimes (probably more often than 18 certificate movies) end up in the hands of under 18s, but surely the game makers can't be held responsible for that?

What stumps me is the all the rubbish about it being unrealistic and giving young people an unrealistic view of how war is conducted. If people are really stupid enough to believe video games all the time we'd have a host of new recruits for the army who complain about their wounds not healing in 30 seconds, inability to reload a magazine in 3 seconds, shoot 5 guys at 400m with one magazine etc.
It's because they're organization is so ineffective and neutered that when they try to actually forfill their agenda, any real military tells them to suck a duck.
So they try to pick on a soft target to make it look like they're doing something worth the donations idiots give them.

Yeah you'd have to be pretty dim. Maybe they should make a game that was realistic and see what people think, you die once then thats it end of game, can't even re-install because you've died. Where you have to drive around for a few months before seeing any action or your vehicle just randomly blowing up.
They obviously don't get games.

Next they will be banning Father Christmas as it encourages people to break into houses down chimneys.
They have an age rating on the game. Its up to parents to educate their children.
That is why they invented splitscreen. You get to kill with your kids and show them how to do it. (Or they show you
)

)unrealistic you say? have they not seen the youtube vids in iraq or other places with hyped up americans blowing up a few people with massive bombs and cheering and yelling PWND! and such .... there's quite a lot of them.

I was playing Doom on a network shooting my dad before anyone in my school had a computer, and I'm not that messed up
I think I've played every notable FPS since then, and don't see the problem. I've seen real dead people thanks to the internet and I've played 'violent' games my whole life, the two do not compare at all.
So, wait a moment they are worried about seeing some blood in WAR games? So why don't they look at filims and all that, that have a bit more gore in them than any game at this moment in time
well thats war for ya isnt it.....they do need to get a life
