That's the dumbest thing ever, maybe we should shutdown EA games for producing the Sims "OMFG JIMMY DIED IN THE POOL VIOLENCE EVERYONE ATTACK". Your makign the worse point ever. You like the GTA games but you want them to get shutdown because it's so good? While we're at it why not make Art of War video game rated A for being based on real life, or how about the millions of games that are like GTA? Max Payne, Dead to Rights, The Punisher, Driver, Def Jam Fight for NY, Driver 2, Driv3r, True Crime Streets of LA, and all the other games based on GTA. They're about real life so they must be making all the killings today right? Moron. There is nothing wrong with GTA's view of gaming except the Hot Coffee mod.

If they used real live names, then they would really get sued. The company can't make profit off of using there name.

Either they would share the money they get from selling the game, or get sued smile.gif

It's bad enough that the defense centered around being influenced by violent games, but it's just ridiculous how the victims' families listened to this person and are blaming the developer of a video game. Just be glad the crazy son of a bitch wasn't playing God of War.

What do you guys think about this?

If I shot and killed 3 police officers I would probably try to plead insanity and blame anything other than myself to hopefully lessen the penalty. When it come to facing life or death, people are quick to blame.

Oh sure, Just because he played GTA it's mean he was influenced by it. I can't believe some people think GTA will make people violent to death and stuff. Thing is, GTA for me calm me down and just killing random people in it make some of my inner rage of the day vanish. So it's a good stress relief.

I guess killing people would relieve anger... I mean killing people on a game is fun and all...

Nice, now GTA is a stress reliever... No more medicine.

Ok this was just.. stupid. That idiot was 20, he had no way of being that influenced by a video game. "Oh yeah there was a game where you jack tanks and come back to life if you die, so that must mean those things happen in real life."

I hate those parents sueing all the game companies also, if you don't want it influencing your kid, don't buy it for them.. Sometimes adults manage to be dumber than children.

Those parents should be tooken behind a dumpster and shot. Why is it the game company's fault for some tool who went psycho? Now lets go sue Tarantino for making that violent Pulp Fiction movie, because it obviously inspired people to kill people!
Report, edit, etc...Posted by IDontChat on 2005-10-12 at 00:24:15
And while you're at it, sue Valve since they made a game using weapons based on real guns and lasting blood can be shown on the enemy if you hit them with a crowbar and oh yea don't forget how there are aliens oh obviously they want to make people think stupid headcrabs are real and they can make zombies that take over a town with some psycho priest with a winchester and look there's an alien race which took over the planet in 7 hours so guess what they're saying we must get guns in case aliens attack and steal our resources using better technology and don't forget they're hinting at higher educations being able to smash stuff with no penalty if it's a crowbar.

I get the feeling I'll get blamed now.

Nice reading skills Sebby.
But you missed a certain part that makes this quote of your giant text post:
QUOTE
Moore had said he was inspired by the PlayStation 2 game.

Belive it or not you don't spell "soccer moms" like "moore" and the person who is on trail (Well not anymore) his name was Moore, what do you know.

Although people (Jack Thompson) sometimes thing because of violent video games (Jack Thompson) will make them kill people, like Jack Thompson. There was a case where a kid was sleep walking and killed hsi grandma, it's not that a knife was in the room or he had been sleep walking for years, it's cause he played Diablo that night which forced him to kill his Grandmother.

Let's start an Anti-JackThompson and Tucker Carlson guild.

It doesnt matter if video games inspire people to kill. As long as the games arent like "Hey you, playing this game, kill your family... kill your family... kill your family..." Which it obviously isnt. Because after these games get sued, then violent movies would have to go! Come on.. anything can inspire to kill.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by MillenniumArmy on 2005-10-16 at 01:18:10
I dont get it, why do people use these games and stuff as reasons/excuses for why they did what they did? Telling the judge that you've been influenced by violent games does not guarantee you acquittal of the crime.

Yeah that could be made for a case as well. You could just say "Why don't we stop world wars? I hear about people dying in Iraq every day and I thought it'd be cool to try it out on my family members!!"
They can't just blame video games, it's just cause they're more popular, like Rock in the 80s or comic books before that.

farking hell! Why can't retarded like this guy just die and fall off the face of the earth, people like him are why game companies are getting farked over in releasing their awsome games. Good thing is, you can't sue a gaming company and expect to win because for one, it's not their fault that you did what the characters do, it's yours for deciding to do it. For instance, I play alot of Halo 2 and Unreal Tournament but I don't go running around killing dogs that look like grunts or being a total rocket whore and blowing shiz up! Like fark, get a life and stop sueing people before I sue you're asses for making suffer from some kind of mental disease!

And that was a word from me! Ice! Ok you can all completely ignore me again now.
