There are a few other games where you arent allowed to shoot children. DONT put them in a shooting game if your going to put kids in God Mode.

you Developers need to keep your stupid morals to yourselves and let me play the game the way I want to!!

Dragon Age let me kill a kid. I was really, really happy for some reason. Yeah Fallout doesnt let you do that...except on PC. There's a mod for that. It has to do with society frowning upon it. Airport scene in MW2? OUTRAGE! Killing kids in a post-apocolyptic world? OMG THE DEV HATES KIDS

For the same reason I'm not allowed to shoot kids in my backyard: It's taboo.

You can shoot kids in Fallout 2 but they actually deserved it though, because they always steal your ****

I heard from a friend the other day that they can't let people kill children because it is a crime to allow people to. I don't know where he heard that from, but sounds believable.

Yes. Blame the devs for you not being able to shoot kids. Because that's the primary reason why they're are kids in games.

Becouse if you could it would just stir up controversy. Killing kids in F3 and NV also does not serve a purpose really. In Fallout 2 it had some purpose atleast.

The mods will make easy work of that. I still agree that they shouldn't have put the kids in the game if you can't do any of that stuff.

Or...why wouldn't you want to? A game is a game is game. Serial murdering psychopathic thieving nuclear bombing...but gods, think of the children? Wait wut?

Wasn't like this back in the days of Deus Ex, I was actually really shocked when a kid got killed in a crossfire, I was like: "That is dark" but meh...

Its not their morals that decide if you can kill them or not, its the rating people.

It would suck if they acted like the ones in FO3.

Those kids deserved a shot to the face imo. >_>

You can shoot the kids if you have hte PC version.

There is a mod out that lets you kill the kids (along with hundreds of other mods like brining all the hair styles from Oblivion into New Vegas and so amny more)

I remember killing children in the originals, you even gain a title when you do it. Does the PC version has that option?

Just because it's a game doesn't mean there should be some moral bounderies.

I mean, why not make a game where you shoot babies?

Many games don't allow you to do so, would probably cause a lot of controversy. I think that's why games like GTAIV don't have kids.

Just kidding.

Rape is a tool of war, I find it ironic that we all play all these war games - games that feature mass murder, often genocide (even if it's not referred to as such), often torture, all sorts of sophisticated ways of killing. But rape?....No, cause that involves sex and we all know how ludricuously touchy america is regarding even consensual sex. It's baffling....truly mind boggling how backwardly retarded some peoples moral compasses are.

that doesn't justify rape

I'm not trying to justify it....I'm saying how dumb it is that games all seem to ignore one of the most popular tools of war....but they revel in mass murder, even on a huge scale.

It's very legal. I'm sure I've played a game where you can kill or at least attack kids at some point, I just can't remember it.
