Check out this editorial that aired last night on xplay. Adam rips apart fox for their editorial show about the game Mass Effect. On a sidenote I have to mention after the spot mogran said that in Nov. fox reviewers gave the game a 3 out of 4. Go here (http://www.g4tv.com/xplay/videos/index.html) and select the video titled editorial: fox news and mass effect. It originally aired on Jan. 25.
The last bit is the best.
here (http://gamepolitics.com/2008/01/22/1993/) is the original fox news spot(scroll to the bottom)...god I hate 'experts'

I'm so sick of video game manufactures being blamed for crap that they have no control over. If it says the game shouldn't be played by ppl over 17 or w/e...monitor your damn kids to make sure that they dont have it...
The same comparison can be made to playboy or pron...its stuff that 12 year olds shouldn't have so why dont parents do there jobs instead of blaming it on companies that have no control. Ultimately your the one that has control over your kids...not anyone else

Yay I get to add a new name to my growing list of ignorant video game bashers:
Cooper Lawrence
Jack Thompson
Kevin McCullough
Dr. Phil
Fox News
I should probably add the Westboro Baptist Church on there for good measure, since they will probably jump onto the video game bandwagon if they haven't already.

HAHAH...thats hilarious. Makes me wanna do it just for Craps and giggles (mainly giggles)
**WTF is going on here Pride..I type in Sh*ts and it auto replaces the word with Craps. I feel that craps just doesn't justify the feeling and or meaning I'm attempting to put behind this post. Way to censor everything up for the little boys and girls...
:blamepride:

All I want is to hear what Jack Thompson has to say about the latest GTA. O and don't vote for Hillary Clinton, I have a feeling that she will ban video games in this country. At least that is what she is advocating.

Banning video games would be like banning movies. Video games are a multibillion dollar a year business with production values higher and development times longer than major motion pictures. Video games will never be banned outright, but we do gotta watch the nazis like mentioned above.
In a president I'm looking for someone that won't put the country trillions of dollars in debt, lower the value of our dollar below that of the canadian dollar, and has an IQ higher than a turnip.
Not being a past member of fundamental islam is also a plus.

The Internet hath no fury like a gamer scorned. (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/26/arts/television/26mass.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=+Author+Faults+a+Game%2C+and+Gamers+Flame+Back&st=nyt&oref=slogin)
She.. got.. OWNED.

Hmm my friend Mike brought up a very good point... why hasn't The Witcher gotten attacked yet? There is complete full nudity in that game. And quite easily gotten to I might add.
Let's see....just one quest....You go to a whorehouse ran by vampire harlots who show FULL frontal nudity at night...You have sex with the girl you're trying to save by paying her...then you go tell her brother what you did...you lure her brother to the house...who happens to be a priest. You kill them all, then have sex with the vampire and her 3 assistants at the same time...
Rofl... Don't get me wrong, The Witcher is one of the best RPG's I have ever played. But one wonders why it didn't get any bad press.

It wasn't popular enough. The mainstream press hasn't heard about it yet.
