Haha that music cracked me up. Anyone know what it's called? also yes Halo is my favorite FPASG
hahahaha the fucking CoD section
this will never stop at least until everyone that played games as a child will be in office and dispel these retarted accusations

[QUOTE=yuper11;40517639]this will never stop at least until everyone that played games as a child will be in office and dispel these retarted accusations[/QUOTE] That isn't even an excuse, Couric is just exploiting the fact that most people watching her sensationalist daytime talkshow ON TV are going to be 30-40+ at least and very likely parents. Just like spoonfeeding sugar cereal ads to children...or well Halo and CoD in this case.

[quote=Guy in vid]the weapons you use in halo are futuristic ak-47 type weapons[/quote] what the fuck?
[QUOTE=GameDev;40519924]what the fuck?[/QUOTE] I dont even get how he could call something an AK47 even though the game clearly takes place in 2552, A clearly Sci-fi setting where a AK could only exist as a museum piece. Turning back to the thread discussion, As far as I know the gun violence level is down, even with the "Gun Bible" and other crazy gun-related things taking place in america and the video game trend happening. Im pretty sure Pen & Teller explained this already, so ill let this video explain the whole thing. [video=youtube;MaF9nbLo8as]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaF9nbLo8as[/video]
It is actually hilarious, since the news always calls everything an AK47.

Penn&Teller's bus driving game, not so much.
