There was also a big backlash for Gears of War in Germany, leading it to be banned there. Ergo, X360 gamers and fanboys will never live with the fact that the X360 has violent games on it.

See, I can act like a completely illogical moron too. :D

You probably just should be happy that you're not one of those so-called "adults" that define their "maturity" through the recommended age ratings and amounts of blood in the games they play.

Good violent games?  A game has to be violent to be good?

Are you sure that you're of the right age to be on this forum?

Because this game didn't have a negative reaction when it came onto the PS2. The only difference this time is that Jack Thompson is unable to sue them over it anymore.

As long as the machine supports ALL types of games for ALL ages and ALL types of users, I really don't care what complaints people have. If they don't want to see or play those games then don't buy them. Just like they don't buy films they don't want to watch, but those films still get made and can still be played on their movie playing device...

Well, its biggest flaw is probably that it's too short, I laughed.

The whole "I'm shocked and ashamed of what you did there!"-thing is a bit funny too because there happens enough **** on this planet on a daily base that's much much worse than anything the general public likes to care about.

I can understand when someone who was directly involved in something like this is a bit pissed about it, but the general public pretending to be shocked imho is just a bunch of hypocrites with no taste for bad taste (a bit exaggerated for good measure). ;)

(oh, I'm a bad (taste) person too!)

Well, GTA has had a huge backlash on every console it has launched for.
But the whining parents are luckily a minority of the market.

I just don't get what they are afraid of?

In order to kill someone just because of a video-game you would have to be mentally retarded. The video-games has nothing to do with it.


BTW Wii is for everyone.

 Afaik indexing a game isn't the same as banning the game. If one game is put on the German Index, it just means that the game can't be advertised or shown on shelves, altho I'm not sure bout the latter. But the game is still legaly available to mature persons, meaning 18+.

 Sometimes I wish more games would be put on the Index list globably and that the 18+ rule would be the holy grail. However my wish fails, becasue sometimes even 50 year olds act as 10 year old :).

It's up to Nintendo to provide the hardware for publishers to release their content on, not to police them. I think Nintendo is doing a good job this gen in doing that and releasing their own titles to satisfy the households who will not be buying Manhunt 2.

Manhunt 2 is violence to a degree where it's just trying too hard. Might be a fun game, but really a lot of what they do is unnessessary.

On topic, wii isn't a fisher price toy for ages 2-6. It's fun for any age group.
