I'm surprised by the fact that the Escapist would put this on the front page, and I'm surprised at Chalk's complete lack of integrity in this particular story.Kakulukia said:
I'm sickened (but not surprised) by the vitriol being spewed against Fox News in the comments section.
First of all: Prove the marketing is aimed at children and adolescents without the words: Explosions, Violence or Weapon.
Second of all: Even if the above is proven true if the children who play this game have proper parents they first of all would not have it bought for them and second of all wouldn't be able to play the game because their parents would be doing their job. Honestly there should be a waiver signed when you pop the little ankle-biters out.

OT: in all seriousness. fox news is the biggest joke ever. i saw the title and laughed. fox loves bashing on video games because we're like the scrawny new kid on the play ground while all the other media art forms are the big kids who can do what they want because they've been around longer. hopefully once we've taken our licks for this fox will move on to something new like virtual reality or actual news reporting or animal husbandtry or something
If Bulletstorm apparently promotes rape, what are they going to say about Duke Nukem Forever?
I can see it now...
THIS JUST IN FROM FOX NEWS:
DUKE NUKEM FOREVER TELLS BLIND ORPHANS TO SUMMON ARTHATRHAHS, THE BLOODY DEATH RAPE GOD OF SEXUAL CONTENT, FROM HIS ETERNAL SLUMBER IN THE DIMENSION OF PURE NUCLEAR CHAOS VIOLENCE SO HE CAN MOLEST PUPPIES.
Seriously? What parent would let their child play Bulletstorm anyways? My dad let me play some violent games at a younger age, but he still had limits. That doesn't take anything away from it. I plan to enjoy Bulletstorm in it's entirety of insane violence and awesomeness.
Oh, and I was raised on Quake 3. I'm fine. I don't show any signs of being a truly violent person.

Y'know, I've been doing better in school recently. However, my underwear is suddenly prone to go mysteriously missing nowadays. Am I to gather from this that because I am losing my underwear, I am suddenly more studious?
No! This is what is called Non-Correlating Data! Just because the moon's a little higher in the sky, doesn't mean more sharks are gonna eat people! It's complete, utter, random chance!

LOL fox news is full of crap. If parents paid attention to what their children played then what does it matter, but hey thats the media for you.
I really sort of wish I could get FOX News, just to laugh at its idiocy. Living in the UK holds many disadvantages 
This moon business literally has nothing to do with the article, but I'll join in anyway. O'Reilly is alluding to Thomas Aquinas' idea of the Unmoved Mover. According to cause and effect, everything must have a cause. This creates a paradox where nothing could be created. To resolve this paradox there must be something that has existed forever and had no cause. That thing is called God.Xero Scythe said:
You can disagree with the proof if you want (I disagree with it), but don't simply dismiss the idea as ridiculous; it has serious credentials.
Is this...like...fun? Is it some kind of fetish to look at freedoms and think "Hmmm...I wonder what things we can exclude from this...let's attack those things"?
I love the thought that my freedoms are moot because Fox's reporters and viewers have children.

fox news needs to learn thta some kids wont even underStand the words, if they did they most likely wouldnt do it
And the only thing that entered my mind while reading this was the shrill voice of those who attempt to ban Mark Twain.
Every medium has people attributing society's downfall to it, even today. Hopefully video games will stop becoming such a mainstream target soon.
