I got the call a few hours ago that I can pick up my copy of Rainbow Six Vegas 2 tomorrow morning as soon as stores open. That means a new oppertunity for them No Love for Hype Rule reviews. And with that, I'm buying that Forza Motorsport 2 March DLC pack while I am at it.
So, tomorrow I'm gonna break down the Rainbow, and trash six million worth in cars just for giggles. Harsh truth, and humor. Best buddies forever.
But todays... topic.
It seems that the government is starting to realise that they're only about 50 years too late to sue the hell out of Hollywood. So they pick on video games instead, cause they give a sense of idealism... I can give you an easy, and quite idealistic list of tools that COULD make you a ruthless killer, or atleast enemy of an state:
Fork - ... You poke it into your dinner... Why not a human eye?
IKEA Kitchen Knifes - 5 bucks, and you've got an arsenal that will make those Rippers look pale.
Baseball Bat - Smack balls at 95MPH. Nail two of 'em if you've got an angry neighbor.
Action Movies - Those anti-heroes can be cool...
Horror Movies - Hostel's actually a HomeDepot Murder Kit.
COPS Box Set - Admit it, going 140MPH over a sixlane interstate with half of the New York State Troopers on your tail. Awesomeness.
Straws - At nearly all fastfood chains you get a straw that you've got to poke through the lid of your drink. Idea of how a pointy object goes through thin material like tissue.
Pencil - If you're college kid with selfesteem problems. Your trusty writer suddenly got your heavy weapon for massive poke-age!
Zizzors - Don't cut the guy some slack. Stab him some slack.
Hangman the Game - Russian Roulette's for babies. Hang eachother at the error of a vowel.
Beer Bottles - Drink a few, and crack some skulls with Budweiser's magic that doesn't shatter.
Airtight Plastic Bags - If you slam it over someone's head and seal it. It's airtight... Y'know.
... Need to continue?
I just know you are gonna counterquestion it with the following:
"But all those things have a primary use, that it COULD be used as a weapon is something you can't stop!"
Hate to say it, but the primary goal of video games is entrtainment and surrealism. Do stuff you can't or aren't allowed to in real life. That people could use the ideas against other humans is SOMETHING YOU CANT STOP! Blaming someone for something you can't stop is like blaming a bird for flying South every year.
Instead of sueing the living hell out of every single damn video game publisher/developer out there, try to sue these instead:
HomeDepot, Warner Bro's, WalMart, IKEA, K-Mart, HobbyArt, Bruynzeel, the creators of the Hangman game, McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, Danny's, Wendy's, Universal Studio's, Touchstone, Tom Clancy, Tupperware, etc...
'Cause anything can set you up for doing something horrible.
