No more than games like GTA et al do just now for random acts of violence against innocents. I’d ban them all
I don’t see entertainment value in slashing a prostitute with a meat cleaver on the silver screen.
Maybe that’s just me? I’d ban them all tbh.

I am with you on this one Laird.... I cant understand why people would actually create them

OK so I started the thread, which has raised some fantastic posts and brave testomonies. It has also sent a couple of PM's bouncing back and forth where my actions in the forum in the past and more recently have been described as bullying.
So, before I give my own testimony about bullying I would like to ask anyone out there in forum land who honestly believes that my behaviour to them (so that doesn't mean someone piping up "yeah, but what about when you said so-and-so to whatisface..? ") I will personally apologise to them.
I am a man of small stature (as some of the more discriminatory wags have pointed out here in a bullying kind of way) but I am big enough to say sorry to ANYONE who feels that I have targetted them in a pejorative way, because that is NOT what I intended to do.
My PM box is open.

Well said Neil. The bottom line is that developers of videos games and films alike should be able to portray scenes of sometimes extreme violence without having to worry about a small minority of people that cant distinguish between right and wrong or those few thatchoose to go out onto the streets and shoot cars with a M16 (that happened in the US after GTA 3 was made i think) This group of people spoilt it for the rest of us, if your offend by the game or your likely to be directed to do something stupid by the game then dont play the game.

I thought it was a well known fact that most of the Admin team can barely read
It is a serious subject though and I can see how these things would have an impact on some people and I have no idea how every eventuality could be covered with games like the one mentioned right at the start, but they do come with warning like films so there are things in place to review things on sale to the public, is it good enough
Quote by Shireen
I dont think it matters what sort of warning comes with it Steve there will always be someone who thinks it shouldn't be allowed and visa versa... It all comes down to the fact that we are all different and what one finds acceptable, another wont
