actually, Flower is a sequel to Flow.Scrumpmonkey said:
its is also a brilliant game.
OT: so they like nuclear? good, a tiny amount of nuclear fusion (particles fusing in an area the size of dust) can run a car. well we're never going to get nuclear fusion. the petrol companies wont let you. its too efficient.
anyway, these games are in no way forcing liberalism and fear-mongering.
meh, its FOX news.
That's a bit of a weak rebuke.Jetsetneo said:I'm glad I'm American, being able change the channel when something like that is on tv is amazingLittleMikey said:
OT: Breaking News; Fox news make a fool of themselves, yet still get more press because we all act offended by it! I just laugh at them now-a-days.
Wow, Fox is getting worse. Attacking flower, really now?
I'm pretty sure people use to say stuff like this : "Oh silly Fox, attacking GTA for being too violent, come on now, bah, its fox, what can ya expect. They just love attacking anything for any reason. Next thing you know they'll be accuse Flower of having different agendas, hahaha Silly Fox." Seriously this is getting way out of hand. O_O

You know what, I'll bet there are games that promote a "liberal agenda." There might even be a "liberal agenda" in these games.
But unless you are also aware of the "conservative agenda" and are just as willing to point out its problems and worry equally about that being achieved, I don't want to hear it from you.

Oooh! Oooh! They missed one, arguably the most human made global warming endorsing game out there I can think of: A new Beginning. You literally travel back in time to avert human's demise due to climate change. Haven't played it, sounds nice, looks cute. Here's a review:

I can't stop being amazed at how unfathomly ignorant all these reports are. I don't what's more frightening, the mere fact that FOX News actually exists or that the US population watches this shit and believes it.
Sigh.

I know a lot of people state that they are dumb and harmless, but reading a report that did a survey on the most trusted news source (done by the 'Public Policy Polling') only 46% distrusted them. Now, it's the most untrusted news network, but come on that number should be around 70%, that means over half of the American viewing audience trust Fox News, CRAZY!
What's this? A news network who has already made it clear they are hardly fond of the new and scary medium known as "Video Gaming" are trying out branch out from the statement "Call of Duty will make kids into gun nuts" to "Kids games will expose young children to political, logical and somewhat radical ideas at too young an age!" Who made them the parents of the world?
I've lost a lot of faith in the media with regards to the coverage of videogame related events. News teams can often be found at Game stores across the UK at midnight launches interviewing people who are queuing up asking "Why are you doing this?" And acting incredibly perplexed at the various answers they get: "Coz its so awesome!" "Coz its a massive event" "Its gona be talked about for years!", because they don't fully understand it. So, because they don't fully understand it, its gota be bad, so the following day, reports come out about videogame addiction and how, despite being one of, if not the, most profitable entertainment media of the modern world, it will lead to an entire generation of future adults with carpel tunnel syndrome (spelling?) and doom us all... what the hell?
This story must take the loopy banana cake for making a story out of nothing in the relm of videogames.

Parents don't know the content of the game their child is playing and may not want them to learn about those types of things.
OMG its obvious what we do now. We ban all video games. How could no one have thought of that before...
Sarcasm aside, how stupid can you get?
Why not make the parents do a bit of research and take an interest in their child's life. These are probably the same parents that buy COD (18) and then complain there is violence in it.
What people (some Americans in particular) need to learn is that if someone wants to pay money for something they will usually get it. If you don't want that then DON'T BUY IT!
Rant over.

Remember, some people are only alive simply because its illegal to shoot them.

Technically it is. I've spoken to a person who knows about those things. Turns out that all the equipment required for the solar power plant to function is not very enviroment friendly. I can't go into all the details beacuse english is not my native language and I just wouldn't know the right words to have a discussion.Drejer43 said:

You guys seem to neglect that you can't link someone's opinion to the whole station itself. This man was given a segment to present his view and reasons why he holds it. If anything it seems like you guys are the ones that are blindly hating on a news channel. You can't let hatred negate people's arguments or else you'll just be close minded.
Hypothetically, just because I said "I hate white people" doesn't mean that every US citizen does.
Stop linking the views presented by individuals in a television show with the entire station.
And it's a Sunday morning show for heaven's sake. There's no good news on any of those kinds of shows.
