The worldwide, seven-million gamer community of Xfire and their Debate Club will be hosting a live debate session in their fourth Xfire Debate Club: The Two-Handed Sword on April 26.

The session, to be moderated by Stanford University's Henry Lowood, will bring together Matteo Bittanti, a researcher at Stanford University; Hal Halpin, CEO of Entertainment Consumers Association; Dennis McCauley, CEO of GamePolitics.org; Russ Pitts, Editor of The Escapist; to discuss matters regarding:
  • Governments' involvement and their regulation of video games
  • Game exposure to children and their consequential influence on them
  • The power of "the creative license"
Frederic Descamps, senior director of marketing at Xfire, commented, "As video games become a more mainstream form of entertainment, questions regarding censorship and legislation continue to gain significance." The debate will take place at April 26, 4 p.m. EDT or 1 p.m. PDT at Xfire's debate section. You can head there through the "Read" link below. And don't forget to bookmark it!

# games, like movies, are art — Guest 2007-04-23 14:41
Censoring art would bring stupidity, like when the pope made the "big castration" and asked to remove all the sxual organs off the statues... That was sooo stupid, and now we can't even see the real statues, since they were modified...



ps: having a debate is still not bad since maybe someone will understand how it's stupid
