Do you think they should ban certain video games for people under the age of 18?

Jesus christ. She's posting stories of how kids murdered their parents and your claiming her view is for no ratings? I have no idea what this debate is about. It's confusing me now.


Yeah, I'm losing my faith too now, since the more recent posts. Let's ask.

Altair, what exactly is your point of view on this issue and why?

No, they shouldn't. The kids who have the games only have it because their parents let them. If the kid is a crazy son of a bitch, the parents suffer for their own mistake.

I think that should end this debate.

Halo didn't come out in 1998 and neither did any of the games you described. Most of the games in 1998 were very strict against violence after school shootings and shit like that. So stop making a bunch of shit up.

And he got two holes in his spine? Started sneaking games in from friends and was able to go to a living room with an armed weapon? Sounds like he REALLY '' couldn't do anything after that '' .

You bullshitter, honestly. That stories fake as **** and this debate is stupid. Kid is ****ed up for the rest of his life and becomes pissed off because his only source of real comfort is removed. Yeah, I'm sure thats all to do with video games and bad parenting. Seems to me like he was a cripple and they took away the only thing dear to him.

****ing bravo for him.

Damn. I was going to say this.

There was a regular teen age boy that was totally non violent. He was in a car or plane crash and got 2 holes in his spine. He could not do anything after that so then his dad bought him a xbox 360 with a few games like need for speed, madden, and stuff. But then he started sneaking in games from his friends. And one of them was halo. He was playing it and was soon an addic. One time his mom caught him and his dad took the game and locked it up in his saftey box. The boy was mad so he got the key to the box and unlocked it and found a gun. Loaded. He went to the living room behind the couch and said " Mom, Dad i have a surprise for you so close your eyes." They did. They were both shot. The father survived. He made it look like a murder scene then try to get away in a SUV. He didnt get very far. (He ran into a tree..) He was arrested in the murder of the first deegree and attempted murder and sentenced to life in prison. This happend a long time ago like 1999-1998..


1. This happened in 2007, not goddamn 1999
2. The teenager in question (daniel petric, aged 17) was addicted due to his incapacitation
3. He played upwards on 18 hours a day; in any simulation, this is easily enough to blur the lines between reality and the virtual world. This created a mental state in which he believed death was not permanent.
4. Petric pleaded insanity. He was given 23 years to life

this case is immaterial to the "argument" (what the **** are we even arguing?)

Get the fuck out. you are what is wrong with the gaming community. You parents are absolute fucking failures for letting you play those games.
Growing up, the most violent game I ever played was the legend of zelda. It was until now, that I'm 16, when my parents pretty much let me buy any game I wanted, not because I couldn't "Handle the violence" as a kid, but simply because now I know that what happens in the video game stays in the video game.
Seriously, children like you are fucking terrible. The reason for the ESRB rating is so that Mature games with Mature content go to Mature players who will be better able to enjoy and understand them, not some tryhard baby faggot who wants to fit in.
Play some Little Big Planet or something. Shit's fun as hell.

I'm not perfect either, and I played GTA a couple of times as a kid, but that was at friend's houses. My parents never bought me those games until they thought I was ready for them. They still havent. I had to buy BF3 with my own cash.

The truth is, even if the government "banned" M for mature games for children under 18, they'd still play them. For the same reason people Pirate shit even though it's illegal. Because they can.

I would like to add that I've been playing Diablo 2 since i was 7. Shit's fun as hell. And it's M for mature.

Of course, Blood Raven scared me shitless.
