The war in Gaza is on the news here in the U.S. everyday. War is ugly and there are parts all over the world where people are dying from fighting every day. I don't think you should not buy a game because of the fighting in gaza. These problems, as you probably already know, have been going on for years and although there may be a cease fire in the near future it probably won't be the last time there is violence between these palestine and Isreal.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's good to feel bad about war and people dying but you should continue on with your life.:)

Really, War affects the heart and soul of some1 but it doesnt affect my gaming because i use gaming as a stress relief thing. I'm from Lebanon so yeah u would understand that we are under constant warfare but live life to the fullest and let nothing stop that. Lifes short man, live it...live it before its 2 late.

Being in Australia it really makes me think how trivial my problems are.

I hope your safe.

Everyone here in Australia is well aware of what is happening. Most are horrified and there have been big protests and calls for our government to do something.

for me it does like my country right now is in a war but im not in it and i cant buy any game coz my country (Palestine is in war) but i dont live in it but i just cant ...it seems i wont get Killzone 2 :pDante_May_Die
so let me get this right , youre a Palestinian but was born in Iraq and lives in Kuwait now?? so my birth country caused you personal grief........ hopefully you dont think all of us are evil or something ..... I understand any point of view you have and respect it.... hopefully you can respect mine.... we live (or I did live) in a region which muscle determines what goes on... its sad, but its reality. not one that anyone is happy with but dont miss out on Killzone 2, its gonna be great

sry to hear that you cant get your games or you cant get games that you are excited for. its a shame that good people have to suffer because of governments and terrorism. hope you can get the games you want soon, i really do. to answer your question, no i dont let any thing in the media/world affect my gaming. if my city decides to stop selling games, im buying on the internet, or im moving. i use games to get away from life, to get away form all the critics and such, to get away from all the media and what they want to tell you. its a stress reliever and a time consumer.

Looks like this is a job for, SPIDERMAN ! Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can. Spins a web, any size. Catches thieves just like flies. Look out! Here comes the SPIDERMAAAAN. Is he strong? Listen bud - hes got radioactive blood. Can he swing from a thread? Take a look overhead. Hey there! There goes the SPIDERMAAAN. In the chill of the night. At the scene of the crime. Like a streak of light. He arrives just in time! Spiderman, Spiderman. Friendly neighborhood Spiderman. Wealth and fame, hes ignored - action is his reward. To him, life is a great big bang up. Wherever theres a hang-up. YOULL FIND THE SPIDERMAAAAAAAAAN!!camerun370

true. war is ugly but in the middle east, might is right, you cant back down, otherwise you get laughed at and get walked all over. no one likes it. I dont like war , I know people that might come back from Gaza dead,.... but to survive extinction thats what happens. im just not sure how many people in the region hate my "kind"??

Why is everyone getting so serious ?! ' War ' and ' Death ' is EVERYWHERE. It happens all the time, some handle it different to others. By the looks of this thread it seems the majority of the people handle it badly and think of the worst. Dante never said he was in the War, he never said he was injured. He mentioned he see's it all the time on the TV, like all of us. So please stop assuming the worst and look and your glass as half full, it happens ALL THE TIME

Dante may not be injured, but just like me, he is attached to war through ethnic/religous reasons, so its different then you, who has no connection to it

wars will stop when there is no more government/religion haters who want to own and control everything/want the rest of the world to worship their beliefs.

wars will stop when all people have the same opinions and that would never happen, i hate war, my dad is in the army and he out in iraq right now but he's coming home soon and i cannot wait for him to come home. he told me some stuff that goes on out there and its real scary, he snuck some pictures he took when he came back a bit for leave, and the pics he showed were very disturbing. cod4 is one of the games thats weird to play cuz its so controversial because of the war but i realized games are fiction and arent real so i shouldnt confuse the two

Dante,

Don't worry, eventually Israeli and Palestinian war will end. One thing good about war is that it can't go on forever. Look at Europe. These countries fought each other on and off for almost 1000 years (I'm including the wars with Rome) and now they're a Union. People (usually the younger generations) get sick of it and makes the governments stop. Peace is a generational evolution and eventually wins out. The bad thing is that someone else somewhere else in the world decides to kill each other.

If you think war games will make you think about war and get you down get LBP. LBP makes me forget about everything.

I hate any war. Most are very unnecessary. The war in the Gaza Strip really sucks because both have a reasonable claim to the land there. It all stems from WWII and how the land was given to Israel. I hate that innocent Palestinians and innocent Israelis have die. But most of, if not all of, the blame should go to Hamas. Because of their actions innocence on both sides have been killed. (Of course, I might be wrong.)

[QUOTE="camerun370"]Why is everyone getting so serious ?! ' War ' and ' Death ' is EVERYWHERE. It happens all the time, some handle it different to others. By the looks of this thread it seems the majority of the people handle it badly and think of the worst. Dante never said he was in the War, he never said he was injured. He mentioned he see's it all the time on the TV, like all of us. So please stop assuming the worst and look and your glass as half full, it happens ALL THE TIMEDarkman2007
Dante may not be injured, but just like me, he is attached to war through ethnic/religous reasons, so its different then you, who has no connection to it

Yes, he doesn't need to be in there to get affected. he has a connection with the people there... only selfish people are not affected when they don't get a direct hit.
