The Week in Review - Bears, Surveys and the Wrong-Colored Hair

In this week's edition, authorities warn parents to be on the lookout for Pedobear, and the team behind Mega Man 9 and 10 announces a vaguely sexual rail shooter.

Why Isn't His Hair White?

A survey undertaken by Common Sense Media suggests that 72% of adults in the U.S. would support a law that made it illegal to sell violent videogames to minors. CSM says that this shows that American parents want to be the ones that decide what games their children play, not the videogame industry. This implies of course, that developers and publishers are somehow in the driving seat when it comes to spending people's money.

YAY! Only two of these articles made me facepalm! (The last two.)
This is a good sign... I hope.

The pedobear story made me giggle so much...people need to take a step back sometimes

 

[therandombear]

You better watch out, you better not cry, better not pout, I'm telling you why. Pedobear is comin tonight.

ah, out of this weeks silliest news, that one was the silliest and the last one is just /facepalm x2

 

[MirrorSweep]

Most adults in America support a white haired pedo bear reaching for a Japanese girl you say?

I just love the Pedobear story. It's just such a perfect example of how clueless many people are about internet culture.

 

[Thorvan]

So japan is making themselves look like pedophiles, the States are making Japan look boring, and California is making the States look like morons.

Not a terribly productive week, I'm afraid. Oh well.

 

[imnot]

Well that japanese one is, disturbing to say the least.
Pedo bear is hilarious.
and calfonia should be carpet bombed.

The Reach story kind of seemed superflous to me... Installing a game makes it load faster? NO WAI!
