Why are there little kids on COD4 MP???

Yeah, its a real problem and it gets me mad when a pre-teen kid is playing adult rated games like Battlefield 2 or Ghost Recon. Some parents will always be irresponsible with their children and supplying them with 15+ or 18+ games there is no excuse for. I hope one day things change.robshenmue

In my opinion i dont think battlefield 2 is a bad game at all. and u guys need to quit complaining and actually use the mute button or just dont play. its like the people complaining are the kids here

yesterday i was playing with some kid who couldnt have been older then 10, named Austin Powers. everyone on our team muted him

every five seconds he said "shut up, shut up. hey listen! guys shut up!"

he didnt really affect the team's performance, but we still had to make up for him. at the end he was 3 - 32

we lost cause we couldnt make up for how terribly he did

spatan...if you want to be philosophical, these games are 16+ so kids shouldnt be playing them..CONSOLE_KING

the thing is. its not that all little kids playing are annoying. some are really cool but when u get 8 year olds playing gears of war, halo 3, cod 4 and everything with ADULTS and other older players..its not right. Its like if u were 8 years old and u wanted to hang out with people that were 16-30 years old. I wouldnt want some 8 year old talking to me and stuff because my friends do talk about and say profanity that some 8 year old shouldnt hear. But parents dont relize that is what their kids are exposed to.

well to let you know you idiot im 21 years old and its retards like you that i dont play online anymore;the kids never bothered me online it was the other people that complain about all the uselees crap, so ianp-91 get you effin story right before you start spewing a bunch of crap out of your mouth. i believe a saying goes. dont assume because you make an ass out of you and me.but this time you've only made an ass out of yourself.i love how intelligent people are on here. let the effin kids play so what if you dont like it.dont play it;its you damnn people that think you have seniority over little kids because there younger.its actually pretty sad;if you actually have this much time to complain about kids you need a new life buddypatrickhorta87

Congratulations on making no sense, how's that working out for you?

Calling everyone retarded because we disagree with little kids seeing content they shouldn't and then getting the media to put pressure on the games industry we support in the first place is as useful as a chocolate fireguard, as are your English skills. Brush up on bothyour ability to respect people and your English and maybe we can talk after that.

its so funny how all you guys are like lets talk about politics and how they shouldnt be allowed on there to play because of there squeaky voices.but killer fist over here has an obsession with pixealted boobs.ahem your picture.kids are being kids and having fun.i mean i did when i played my snes the first time i got it and now these kids are happy that they get to talk to there friends and get to play a game they like.and a lot of you are probrably pissed off because these little squeakers are kicking your asses at most of these game anyway:lol:patrickhorta87

lol obsession? no just liked the pic:P anyway I agree sort off. i used to play alot of games in the NES/SNES days. but playing games online at that age is a different ballgame imo

You're right. It is a different ballgame (or videogame) when playing online. I too played NES/SNES/GENESIS games when I was a little squirt, but I wasn't interacting with 25 year olds who at anytime could say things that I shouldn't hear. Or pressure me to take part in a unsuitable conversation for a child.

I was playing Mortal Kombat around the time it was causing this commotion in the media about it being too violent for kids. But I turned out fine. And so did my friends who played as well. But I wasn't extremely young either, maybe 13? Even still, kids a lot younger that than were playing it, and I don't think it had any negative effects on them either. It was just a fun game.

And if I had a child, I probably would let them play it too. But not online. I wouldn't want my young child talking to adults on a headset about...well anything.

The movement to censor violence in videogames has kind of died down. Now it's all about sex in videogames. But if these people had any idea what children are really being expose to when playing online, the content in the game would be the last thing on their minds.

censoring sex in video will be no different then them turning on the real world or watching a movie on tv.everywhere they go there going to hear the f word or hear somebody get called a homo.its life dude real as real.if they get kicked offxbox live theyll just turn on mtv and watch someone fighting or cussing at eachother.

Very true. You can definitely see mature stuff on MTV any day of the week. Or even the nightly news for that matter. I'm not arguing that.

I hate censorship. Whether in TV, Film, Music, or Games. I think if entertainment is made for adults, then it shouldn't have to be censored. If parents want their kids to stay away from stuff like that, then it's their responsiblity. And I don't think parents should completely isolate their child from all the naughty things out there. I think talking and explaining things is a lot better.

But I'm not saying kids shouldn't be allowed to play 'M' rated games, or see 'R' rated movies, etc. I'm saying that the interaction a child may have while playing a game online, will be far more mature or explicit than the M rated gaming content itself. He or she could be playing Viva Pinata online, and still be able to communicate w/a perverted 20 year old, or idiots that just wanna use every racial slur that they know.

If I had a little kid that wanted COD4 or Halo 3, I would buy it for them. I wouldn't have a problem w/ the gaming content. I would just have a problem w/ the stuff they would be exposed to online. Which is something that I think most parent don't know.

But we are a generation of gamers, whether casual or hardcore. We know what to expect w/ this new era a gaming. So maybe we will be able to use a different type of discretion w/ our kids.

And I know kids will do whatever they want. Somehow. If I don't let my kid play online, he'll just go to his friends house and play there. Or if I don't want them to learn about something, they'll learn from a kid a school.

But hopefully my child and I will have enough communication so that I can explain certain things that they may not fully comprehend or understand.
