the only thing that could top this is if some mothers go around suing the retailers for selling the games to 17 years old while the game was still rated M...
nothing beats suing someone for doing something which wasn't a crime when he did it...

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
Fucking pathetic.
And no, I'm not talking about the fact that Rockstar was too lazy to remove some half-assed "sex scene" from their product. I'm talking about the fact that they had to remove it in the first place. It's absolutely lovely to see that murder and drug usage is fully acceptable and even fucking glorified in todays society. But the moment some skin is shown all hell breaks loose.
Seriously, it sickens me to the core that people like this have that much influence over the gaming world.
/ No, you warrant no villain's exposition from me.
the game is officially AO, rockstar is working on edited copies right now
I agree with Nai
I've been playing games for a long time, and I think its really wrong to exploit things in such a manner
I like Sonic games where I run around on stages at high speeds and defeats bosses
I dont want to play a game where Sonic does drive by's peddles drugs and bangs hookers
Videogames are starting to go on a downslope in some ways just like television has
The ESRB need to do something about their ratings, it reminds me of the big jump movies used to have from PG to R before they incorporated PG-13. They need more ratings so its easier to understand what games are going to include, it'd solve alot of the legal issues.
the problem is that games in america are still considered for children by those in power right now. i think it is ridiculous, i mean its rated mature 17+, a movie rated R 17+ shows sex scenes and plenty of skin. to tinks, im not sure what your point is, if you dont want to play a game with drugs and hookers then dont, stick to your sonic. there are thousands of games out there, i dont see why a few violent games like gta show that the industry is on a "downslope."
About the ESRB ratings, they need to start handing out a rating thats between AO and M I believe(refer to the Penny Arcade article), also there needs to be something between M and E for everyone, the range of the ratings are too broad.
I say GTA because is Rockstar is the leader in degenerate(sp) games, and GTA is one of many that uses violence and drugs to sell games so thats why I say "downslope" not to mention the complete lack of creativity and innovation in videogames today.
How about Manhunt where you pretty much just run around executing people? Another Rockstar game
There was a time where all the things GTA does that gets it such a high rating never used to be a part of videogames, and I miss those days
im just not sure why, there are still plenty of videogames that arent violent like rockstar's games.
on the esrb point, why would you need something between M and AO, M means 17+ which i think should be enough right there, and get rid of AO. the problem is that stores dont enforce the ratings like they do for movies, if they did all we would need is E, T, M, E would be like G, T like PG13, and M like R. i dont get the point of AO, thats 1 year after 17 youre considered an adult, so maybe make mature 18+? the real problem is that a lot of parents dont know what their kid is playing or dont really give a fuck as long as it keeps their kid busy, then they put on the news and see they just bought their kid a controversial game. so they decide hey that isnt right someone else should make sure my kid isnt playing this game other than me the fucking parent. its a joke...
NC-17 is just like AO, and I'm pretty sure theres something above NC-17 now but I'm not sure
List those games though
maddox is the shit.
