I just laughed my FVCKING ASS OFF playing this game!! It reminds me of the game where you play a hunter trying to survive the jungle with the naked gay guys popping out of the bushes and running at you to rape you :laugh:

LOL what is that game called?

I don't remember. It got posted here on AT and the mods had a lock-fest for it. You had to go from screen to screen looking for ammo, trying to survive as long as possible. I think I have it in one of my CD archives around here somewhere. Great game, highly entertaining 😀

Nik, I am not sure if this is part of your tough guy persona or if this is really how you feel, but I think it's sad either way. I know you "don't care" what other people think because you are such a macho man, but I think you need help.

I think stupid flash games like this or like "kill Osama" can be "fun" quote un-quote, but if you stop and think about it, can you honestly tell me that you would want your 10 year old child playing this game? If the answer is yes, you make me sick.

Oh, lighten up. You shouldn't be so judgmental. Stop wasting time worring about how Nik (and anyone you disagree with) feels about things and you'll be happier.

Heres another view:

Pedro Rios, with the American Friends Services Committee, was outraged when he saw the game. "It tabulates how many people you can kill, how many Mexicans you can kill," said Rios. "It specifically dehumanizes (and) takes away (the) dignity of Mexicans, who are only coming to feed their families and look for better opportunities for themselves." Francisco Estrada, the Sacramento Director for a California civil rights organization whose focus is on statewide public policy, said that the game will only serve to inflame the debate over immigration in the United States. "It?s sad to see the demonstration and promotion of hate since what we?ve seen over the past couple of weeks is a more dignified rational approach," Estrada said.
I thought it killed them....... 😕

I don't think you are on a level where you can understand my main point. PS, look up the phrase "hypothetical question."

Well I guess he means it cheapens Mexicans lives.

First of all, I'm not responsible enough to be a parent. Kids deserve more than what I can offer them at this point in my life, so I won't have my own kids for quite some time. I'm sure many of you will be happy to read that. 😛

However, I've worked in nurseries and with young kids for years. In my experience, which will most likely coincide with almost anyone else who's worked with many children from different backgrounds, different families, different areas, etc., one 10 year old can be quite different from the next 10 year old. Some 10 year olds that I've worked with are FAR too immature and not mentally ready to comprehend the idea of racism, violence, and dark humor. Others ARE mentally developed enough to know the difference between reality and a video game. To ask me whether 10 year olds should be allowed to play this game really isn't a fair or balanced question.

I certainly wouldn't MAKE my 10 year old play this game, but if I found him playing it or they asked me about it, I'd probably already know how much they're developed and be able to make that judgement at that time and have a nice talk with them about the differences just to make sure. It really depends on their understanding of life. 🙂

Your main point is that you think Nik should be locked up for holding an opinion that you find 'repulsive' or 'shallow' and that you've decided to express that train of thought in a petty and unnecessarily negative way.

I'm not going to post any pics, but Nik's last girl was definitely hittable. That is, if she didn't see fit to hit you first. 😛

Nik, thank you for your reply. I think I understand where you are coming from based on your response and I don't exactly agree, but I believe you hold a valid viewpoint.

LOL... Right! :thumbsup:

I have to agree on some points on this subject, albeit violent video games, as well as violence on TV may be offensive to some, and could be graphic I do not believe that this incites people into actual violence or to do these things in reality. I think most people know that these are games and not real.

However, I don't think children should have access to this type stuff.
