HAHAHAHA thats awesome. i can see why =), nothing to be ashamed of there.

Thanks, I am proud they are real

i dont trust your word, i want to see for myself hahaha.

lol

your definitely blessed, i will say. real is always better than fake too!

Video games have become like movies. You have kiddie games (G-PG) films. Games for Teens (PG-13) and games for young and old adults (R). So if video games are the devil then Hollywood must be the antichrist. Lol!

Anyways, when a parent allows his or her young child to play GTA, then that is on the parent. Not all games can be Wii Sports or Pong. Gotta have diversity.

I dropped over to see my nephews over the Christmas holiday and they were playing with some new video games they got for their x box.

Now, I don't play video games so I really had no clue what to expect.

First, I couldn't believe how real looking they were, second, the game they were playing was a army game. which was extremely vivid and violent.. extremely.

I didn't like what I saw at all, but I do not believe it is the schools responsibility to monitor what the kids are playing.. it is the parents.

But video games are a big business ( thanks Madison Ave & Hollywood!!) as long as there is a demand, there will be a supply.

We could ban them from the planet and kids would still get their hands on them and play.

personally, I see no value what so ever in what I saw on the T.V. screen

I am a gamer. I play the league, but to be frank, too much gore can be a problem.
Children, in their young minds, might see these things as good. Thus a posibility of them imitating such actions.
Sometimes, we (a parents and future parents) fail to see the evils of trivial things.
We dont even realise that we are teaching violence to children.
E.g. nursery rhymes
Does anybody ever noticed the violence?

Amen

video games don't create violence. people create violence

I thought I would weigh in here again on this topic because I for one DO Not believe that schools have any rights at all with interfearing in any child's development,wether it's playing video games or watching movies either because that authority would fall squarely upon parents shoulders and that's the way it should be.Pretty well,it should be the parents whom lay down the laws with their children on what types of video games would be appropriate for them to play with & also films to watch as well because this is pretty much the territory on the judgement calls that should be left in the hands on the parents,not schools. Pretty well,schools have never been granted the rights to over-stepping their authority on subjects like this and they never should. To me,schools should just stick to what they are allowed to do and not stick their noses in business that doesn't concern them.

True gamers just play the games and don't complain? Unless there's a new game out that they don't have yet! I was a heavy gamer in the past, but too many things on nowadays, so only sometimes now!

Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.

Wow, that's bloody violent!

It could be if it ended up on a samich, with mint sauce of course.

Or in my lamb madras? ha ha

The video games or the t**s.. that should be a thread ;)

They should let parents be exactly what they should be.

Parents. And let them make that decision.

Video games are just like movies, a form of entertainment. You don't hear complaints about violence, gore, and sex in movies but yet we still let our children go and see them.

But when it comes to video games, one little character can fart and "OMGOSH IZ VIDEO GAMEZ TEECHING UR KIDZ BAD THINGZ????/////!!1one"

I don't see why such hypocrisy exist when it comes down to us gamers, but I wish it would stop. Video games are just what movies are: a form of entertainment.

That being said: R.I.P Silent Hills, you'll always be remembered ;.;

Ahh, derp, forgot to add: "Between a movie filled with gratuitous and explicit sex scenes, an a video game, I'd pick the game."
