Its
1)AGAIN a good way to show to people that bad lookin black's come with guns(omg look at NARC ,GTA:SA,25 to Life...)
2)Show that the videogame indistry is very sick when you need to get stars names in order to get attention to sell your product
3)This damn game will sell probably 1 million copies.( fvck mario..here is 50 cents...)

These videogames project something bad to kids,teenagers.They now will think that blacks come with guns.YES a lot of other videogames your shooting stuff, but with these games representing a good part of the reality, it can affect the judgement off the teenagers...meaning it can develop into some forms of racism?I dunno.But i just dont like it.

Ok before someone come with the line( look GTA III your a white!!!)Yeah, but everyone know that mafiosio are into crimes...there is nothing new there...

What about all the sports games, they are using the star power of athletes.

Athletes actually create the games in real life.

Ok, but there are other games that use other star power, Jet Li was in a game earlier this year.

Wonderful

I don't care if Jet Li is in a video game because he could kick the ass of every ATOT member.
Rappers and thesbians, however, make it sad and ruin the games.
 
His name is "50 cent", not "50 cents". Saying "cents" is too proper and is against rap culture. Ya gotz ta talk like dis, yo!

You REALLY dont get it.Watch television, videoclip of blacks.What does it represent? Gangsterism,criminality.And teenagers like this image and make guys like 50 Cents,SnopeDog their hero...

And now, this representation is created in videogames.

Your commentary on the fireball with asian is probably one of the most idiotic comment i have ever heard.Seriously.You just dont get it.

So you're saying it's a bad idea for a guy who raps about screwing women, doing drugs and killing people in an egotistical manner to make a game where he carries a gun because it will give a negative image of him as a black person?

I think you've missed the idea of "too late."
 
Are you white? Do you have problems w/ black people having guns? Whats the difference between a black character holding a gun in a videogame than a white person holding a gun in a video game? Just because it isn't the majority doesn't mean you gotta sh!t your panties.

1)I dont have problems with black people.And yes i am white
2)Lots of black are crying out loud that lots of people have a bad idea of them( ex. racism) and that doesnt help their position. The white people who already have difficulty to deal with black people will have even more difficulty to deal with them with representation like this.The way our society is created its simple.The blacks have to make their way into our society because lots of white doesnt like them for any stupid reason.Its 10x more difficult for a black to find a job, appartment, get a position because they live in a world of white( and im not trying to make a racist comment here, but its the truth).And by creating representation of videogames like this WILL NOT HELP to improve the way teenagers, people look at blacks.

Now i hope i dont need to justify my self again..hoping you understand it all.

But see you, video game are not problem.It is dumbs who stereotype base on what they see in mass media.Plus reason for black not doing well, must take account of socioeconomic differences since most blacks not live in uppermiddleclass areas.I admit it, I am asian teenager (18 yearo ld) but I do not see african american as something negative, even after watch mtv or play gtasa.Videogame not problem here.Itgo deeper than it.
