Final Fantasy 7 banned in Germany

Once again proving that Germans are a scourge upon this planet and by using the Weapons we willl be able to defeat them and send those vile life stream contaminating people 2 HELL :P

Ya I agree, just because they used the damn names doesn't mean anything. I'm postive that in Final Fantasy VII you don't kill two girls parents and gag the girl to death... and im sure Reno and Septh. aren't friends either... the Germans can be really messed sometimes.Cocololap

the game isn't banned (it's rated for 12 years and older), "Killerspiel" is just a propaganda term, mostly used by politicians and the media.BenderUnit22

That certainly is a shame. i think i'll write to scientific amercan ( magazine my brother reads about science) and ask them to do an article on the affects of video games.. on the mental stability of persons...

shame though that ppl had to die. FF is not to blame in my opinion though.

My dear Amnesiac, you just commited a couple of grievous logical falicies.  First of all, your premise of "Games, movies, or music are NEVER to blame." is false since it can be shown that media influences people.  So, perhaps if you were to say "Games, movies, and music are never the sole problem that politicians make them out to be." that would be better.  Or even take a different route entirely and start with "G,M, & M are just scapegoats that politicians and the media use to avoid the deeper rooted harder problems in a given society, they're hardly, if ever, to blame."  Then your conclusion is way off since not everyone watches movies, listens to music, and/or plays games, and even if they did the basic ideas of probability would suggest that an odd one would not become violent (Just in general its bad to say everyone).  A better conclusion perhaps would be, "If they were then murders and violence in general would be grossly higher than it is."

Sorry, your statement just made the little logician my English Teacher implanted in me wince.  I appreciate the passion of your statement, but passion alone rarely wins an argument.

hey Mr. Axe............................................................................. you talk funny.... ^_^

Anyway, continue on with the topic.

Were they using the same weapon as sep and reno when they commit the crime? Just curious.
