Lucky. My cousin has a four year old and all that he does is yell and beat up people. What a kind boy this is.
to this day i feel remorse at times for killing a for people in games but only at the time of me doing it. Earlier today i was playing gta iv online with my friend, i started to mess around shooting people in the legs to watch them stumble about, one of the old ladies was freaking out and started screaming "i wish my husband was alive to help me" and i just stopped. Then my friend ran up with a shotgun and killed everyone.
Then i just continued on after a bit of guilt.
I chase down wild horses in RDR, shoot them dead, skin them, then throw throwing knives at their skinned heads and that little religious girl that you find during a Stranger quest I hogtied her and then threw her on the train tracks.
I'm going to Hell aren't I?
Cute :3
I always try to keep my units alive in RTS's.
Except for the Imperial Guard in DoW. They're fair game.

and one person does not account for the entire population. I like how the parent says, "he played GTA and never beat anyone with a bat!"
it's accepted by basically every psychologist that video games can have a psychological affect on kids[/QUOTE]
JDK is right guys, I beat people with bats, and murder humans left and right. All is attributed to video games.
Seriously, use your brain, or did video games destroy that too?
When I was a kid I didn't do any of those things either. In GTA the primary thing I did was cause traffic jams and drive on the sidewalk.

I hogtied her and tried to take her back to town for her own good but I just got a bounty. Because apparently leaving someone to die in the wilderness is ethical and honorable.

Hey, Gummylamb, how you doin' champ?
Good? I'm glad to hear so. He buddy, can you do me a favour?
I'm looking for where JDK implied that
can't find it
This thread just about made my night.
Thanks, OP.
When I was young, I was also a pacifist. I would just melee in CoD, not shoot.
You haven't fully experienced GTA games unless you beat the ever loving shit out of a whore with a baseball bat though :saddowns:
I was about to post here saying how well I turned out from playing violent video games. I've been playing Goldeneye 007 since I was 5... I realized... I am a completely deranged sociopath with no feelings towards others.

lol, I used to do that in Halo and imagine them being unconscious.

GTA3, 9-years-old... The awesome crunch of a prostitute's corpse under your Bobcat pickup truck. Great times...

Same, back when you could melee with your weapons...
[QUOTE=Warhol;22571001]uh, it does lol
I mean, it's not CRAZY effective like Jack Wallybingo Thompson, but fuck, it's so fucking [b]ostentatious[/b] to say it's harmless.[/QUOTE]
I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Hi Warhol, thanks for the well thought out message! You're a real friend (:. I'm good, how are you? (I don't think I was supposed to answer that)
Well if you look at JDK's post you can easily see that he said there was a psychological change, correct? Well I mean, what I basically said was that the psychological effect/change must not be too bad, or too intense, or else I'd be off murdering humans.

The point is that the kid had less exposure to the real world compared to most people that play it, and he didn't go apeshit when there were no rules.

It's even worse in RDR... if you start shooting civilians and police in the gut, they will crawl around bleeding to death making heavy wheezing noises saying things like "I'm not even supposed to be here... Oh, God...", "I can't die now, it's not my time...", "Peggy, Irene... I'm going to see you soon...", they'll start begging for the pain to end, they'll cry for help or a doctor, they'll start saying the Lord's prayer, and so on.
RDR in general is one of the most violent and brutal games I own... ._.

That kid is quick with his remote control.
That tank never will come back to that FUCKING house
Meh, most games are probably safe with parental guidance... aslong as its not like saw.
I always felt like shit when I played GTA. I remember going, "that person probably had a family... and now the kids are gunna be orphans!" which led to me crying for about 30 minutes.
I played GTA too around that age,
glad not every parent goes:
"MY KID CAN'T PLAY THAT IT WILL MAKE HIM A SERIAL MURDERER!!!!"
*Faith in humanity increased.*
I started playing GTA games when I was 8, I havn't beaten any hookers to death, joined a gang or gone on any murderous rampages.
Yet.
