When are non gamers going to figure out that gaming is just another medium that’s not made just for kids and/or adult males? If you’re in the mood to be angered by complete and utter idiocy then look no further than the video above. Fox News should be ashamed of themselves. If it weren’t for Geoff Keighley, gamers heads everywhere would explode after watching this lunacy. Is there more to say on this? Of course, but do any of you think the other people on that panel are willing to listen? Shouting into a vaccum amongst ourselves isn’t going to change a thing. What do you think?
One more thing. They don’t even seem to have the ability to take this seriously with all of the laughing and giggling that takes place. As mentioned by the brunette in blue.
“I’m not sure why it didn’t get an adults only rating? The the highest rating it can have. First of all, this board that rates these games needs to have their heads examined.”
The game has a M rating by the ESRB, right. As in your child should not be playing this game if they’re under 17 years of age, unless given consent by an adult. So, when I ask why the MPAA doesn’t use their entire scale in much the same way as to avoid the non stocking of such a film that receives an NC-17, where’s the questioning of that? In this case, what happened to silent films and all of the propaganda films of yesteryear? Is it wrong for videogames to express a full range of depth? Double standards are a plenty.
