Violent game furor
"You may have thought "Grand Theft Auto" was the last word in video game violence.
Think again.
The latest in shoot-'em-up video game technology, "25 to Life," allows players to attack police with an arsenal of Molotov cocktails, broken bottles and baseball bats. When weapons fail, players make strategic moves using civilians as human shields."
"It's the worst in a series of violent and gruesome games that lower the common denominator of decency," said Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who is trying to block the game from hitting stores in September.
"25 to Life" makes "other controversial games like 'Grand Theft Auto' look like 'Romper Room,'" Schumer said.
"It's outrageous that a company like this would try to desensitize our children," Lynch said.
funny, according to this the game is rated M
stupid mother's typical response:
"But concerned mom Tori Cage, who was shopping with her 9-year-old son, Dquan, said the game should never hit store shelves.
"They should ban them totally," said Cage, 27, of Maywood, N.J. "
idiot, it's rated Mature ...your kid wouldnt be able to play it for another 9 years
more fear-mongering:
"The game, he said, is likely to "produce cowards that will hide behind a gun."
when will parents take responsibility for what their kids are playing?
