"proving God is _______"

honestly, people are going to be assholes because they're assholes, that wouldn't change if their faith did. People have a fucked up human nature that they have to get by to change that. And their view on religion has nothing to do with it

This constant bitching about Atkinson.

Fucking nerds with a raging sense of entitlement think they deserve an R18+ rating, well what the fuck have you done to deserve it? Stop bitching.

Now apply that same logic to other forms of visual media. For example, what have we done to deserve and R18+ rating for videos? The thing is, if we are allowed R ratings on movies and the like, then why should't we be allowed R ratings for videogames?

Point missed. Challenge to people who think they deserve it, not whether or not we should have it.

However, I am in full agreement that videogames that just use sex and stuff for no other reason then to say 'WE HAVE A SEX SCENE IN OUR VIDEOGAME!!!' shouldn't be allowed in, mainly because they approach mature issues in immature ways (which doesn't do anyone an ounce of good). If, on the other hand, they approach the issues of violence, sex, torture, terrorism etc in a way that gives clear indication to its seriousness, then by all means, allow an R18+ rating for those games (if it is extreme enough for it). For example, MW2 has a terrorism scene where you actually kill countless civilians, but not only does it give you the option of skipping it (and warning of its maturity in the process), but it also portrays it as something wrong (with the whole 'I'm a bad guy trying to start a war against America, and that is why I am killing these people MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA' thing).


So, yes, we should have an R18+ rating for video games that approach mature issues in a mature way, but we should also not let any games which approach mature issues in deliberately obscene and immature ways get a rating.

Games can never approach things maturely because they don't play themselves. The terrorism part in a crappy game doesn't convey anthing when the majority of people playing it think "haha, stupid civilians lolz"

I'm sick of how every thread about Halo (with the exception of a few) in recent weeks has never been about the actual game but instead has been about the hype, fanbase and popularity and various other complaints about a franchise that some like and others don't and really should be left at that.

This and most fans. There are exceptions, just not enough to justify the existance of such species *loads shotgun* excuse me but I have to go on a genocide.

So many people complaining about certain things in games or the gaming industry in general without having a single fucking clue what they are talking about (for example 'cash cow' games). Jeez... Just shut the fuck up please.
