On the "Video games cause violence" argument

EndUnknown · 09-18-2008, 11:42 AM

saw a quote that sums it up nicely imo.

Quote:

But the fact is, you can't blame a video game that is clearly targeted at adults, for influencing a child's behavior. That's like blaming Playboy for an 8 year old for trying to take a girl's clothes off after his parents showed him a centerfold.

i totally agree that it is the parents fault
i play COD4 on the 360 and i always get rooms with a bunch of squeakers and teamkilling panzy children
Where r the parents!?!?!?!
now under some circumstances it is okay to let them play such as if the parent plays it then they can let their child play it but
come on theres a limit don't let your kids play violent games unless you yourself have played it and said it is okay for them to play it

the only thing violent games cause is brawls.*

*only on cod4 b/c it's the best multiplayer game ever. I HATE MARTYRDOM!
