This is way true

first post :)

haha

somebody should send this to Jack Thompson.

Games are quite so very over rated by the ERSB they need to tone down on their ratings...



I don't think games make me a violent person. It's all in good fun.

Ladies and gents, regoice! for the quick jump network's photography site is about to reach the 1 year mark without being updated!!!

Whenever my bro has headaches he play games.. then after just a few mins. his headache is gone!

You made your children play VIOLIN VIDEO GAMES?



I'm surprised you haven't turned them gay yet.

WON'T BE TEH MURDERZ!



Wow, this is so not news.

My four year old sister's completed San Andreas twice... And I still haven't seen her try and jack a car yet.

Seventh grade is around 12-13 years of age, and Eighth grade is around 13-14 years of age. The age in which a child enters those "levels" of their schooling can vary, but the numbers I provided are what's considered "normal".

This is so STUPID plz stop covering these kinds of stories.



There's more relevant issues out in the world. Like nintendo and sony trying to kill classic gaming genres and television.



TV is so *****ing bad for all of you it influences Music Games School Work Police in very negative ways. Not the concept of displaying moviing images with sound but the irrelevance and violence that the media is using as a smoke screen to try to keep us ignorant violent bastards.



There need to be more studies about the entertainment culture of violence before we shine a light onto the gaming scene.



Do ppl really think that holding a gamepad is the next closest step towards shooting someone?



If shigayu miyamoto (er w/e) has his way all chlidren will be enjoying a healthy zap once again playing with the new wii gun adapter. This is about as close as VGs are to Virtual Reality so far and most of what we're doing with it is shooting ganado's heads off and pillaging their riches. =]



I saw Hostel on TV the other day... =/

Not sure if I would let my kids play that but thats the best the 'more child friendly' company has come up with so far.

Ladies and gents, regoice! for the quick jump network's photography site is about to reach the 1 year mark without being updated!!!

I wonder what Jack Thompsons response will be?

This is a load of *****.



Violent "video games" DO affect children



Like watching hardcore triple penetration faeces goat sex would affect a child minds.



However! Thats not to say video games as a whole should be watered down or regulated for our "children"



Should we ban all works of art or paintings containing images that could harm a childs mind, just because they play with finger paints and playdough?



NO FK NO! NO WAY!



When will the rest of world wake up a realise "video games" are an medium for art on various levels, just as television is.



Lets ban all violent movies shall we?



I mean a dumbass parent might let their kid watch a certain R movie then they go and tie their teacher up and cut off her nipples with a razor blade.



INFACT there is some kid somewhere who stabbed his teacher and has a copy of a R sitting s movie sitting in his room....



LETS REGULATE ALLLLLL MOVIES!!!NO BLOOD! NO GORE! NO SHOOTING! NO MORE ACTION MOVIES! NO MORE WAR MOVIES! NO MORE THRILLERS OR ADULT THEMED MOVIES!!!!!!



you see how stupid this sounds?



You fear for your childs mental well being?



Thennnn do got out and buy that game well out of his age range just because he starts wailing in the store!!



Would you buy your child explicit movies? Just because all his friends have it?



NO?



THEN DO THE SAME WITH VIDEO GAMES!!!!!!



Your kid is succeptable to outside suggestion do go and buy him manhut KKK



INFACT keep your kid away from any game not his age range, that way I don't have to read about it being blown out of all proportion on blogs like these

I see lots of nerds including Manhunt to this and it's just plainly retarded. First, yeah a game like GTA and God of War and other mildly violent games can be good for anger magaement on some individuals. Yet obviously I doubt those studies actually used the Manhunt game cause that would have been just wrong. Manhunt is a game purely faced on gross and sadistic metally ill violence which is obviously bad for kids. None out of the 50 million people who play a GTA game will act violently cause of it. But maybe 20 out of 2 million gamers who play Manhunt can cause a massacre.

Looks like i just googled your name and it just returned a ***** load of sites with you commenting ONLY on manhunt and nothing else. If I were you id look at my post rating first. And if you think you will go out and murder someone just by playing a video game i think you should lock yourself out or if you trust me I will call the asylum up for you and maybe they will have a reward for me. What is it with people like you who take video games too seriously. If you think this game can cause violence just cause it consists of violent themes and gruesome images, god forbid you from playing one of those fighting games else you probably will get your wife/husband/both with your finishing move! Maybe there should be a way we could ban morons who are 20 and have a thought process similar to that of a 50+ year old lonesome GRINCH.
