News Report on Kinect Sex Hack Could Arouse Parents' Fears

[DeASplode]

Wow...idiots... -.-
Seriously...just shoot me now...

I would, but Fox News will just blame the shooting on Video Games.

"Arouse" parents' fears. Subtle.

Who saw this coming? [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/7.251827.9347176]

Now we know why Microsoft acted the way they did when Kinect was hacked. Because the masses can't think for themselves, and assume anything made for Kinect was made for the Xbox 360 with MS's approval.

people don't have time to inform themselves on this topic, they're too busy looking for their old "BAN" signs and organizing protests to get their facts straight.

Hey guys it's local TV called Kfox14, also it's Affiliated with CNN. Get your facts right before we bash these guys again?

Also since small news stations like that don't get as much money as bigger news than it has to make it stand out and make every small story a big story in order to get ratings which wil bring them in money so they can buy more than 1 helichoppa

You know, I would go on a rant about how average news stations are stupid about video games, how John Funk used the word "Arouse" in this news post, and how the grandfather has common sense, but I feel that would be average and cliche for a person on the internet, so I leave you with this entertaining cover parody of a game series that I've recently been playing:

DUDE......

....I'd wanna play that.

CNN.

Journalism on par with Fox News.

They just got added to my "never watch list".

CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, and...Bravo.

You could say the same thing about this community. The first 3 pages were Fox News bashing when the actual news agency was a local station and a subsidiary of CNN.

Did anyone else notice the "reporter" of this story has the same last name as the family being interviewed? *strokes chin* Interesting.

And christ, it's only the kinect technology that's being used by ThriXXX, not the Kinect itself, so it has no real tangible connection to the Xbox or any other console for that matter. And that's even before you mention how ThriXXX games are PC only. I feel ashamed over the fact that a lot parents are going to lap this shite up like milk from a saucer without even questioning it.
"Why does this taste like bullshit? Oh well, no matter, it came from people whose job it is to report the truth, it must be good for me."

 

[DTWolfwood]

hahahahaha XD o the ignorance!

 

[SnipErlite]

Sadly, that's about all this sex hack could arouse. Unless there's some lung-fondling fetish of which I'm unaware.

Made me chuckle. Heh. Thanks.

Well, the worst that could happen is it turns the latest generation into perverts and sex addicts. Thus turning offices into a very hostile place in 10-20 years that is assuming the sexual tension is unwelcome, but if you look at the aforementioned utilization of "Perverts" it will not be. There will be no productivity and society will stop just as the second baby-boom will begin. We will be pushed back (technologically speaking) into the 14th century. Billions will starve, and we will quickly turn into a tribal society fighting over resources that were once bountiful. After the dust settles there will be too few humans to continue the species and we will all die out. Although porn will see an increase in business, so there is a silver lining.

Hmmm, more porn........
A WORTHY CAUSE.

Bring on the sex hacks, I say.... sorry, was there more to your post? All I saw was more porn.....

 

[Wintermoot]

do those people even know the difference between a adult game and a kid,s game?

 

[ServebotFrank]

Why were they worried about their five year old son? Hormones don't come up that quickly so I doubt they'll hear high pitched noises in the night. Do they honestly think that their son would even care about that kind of thing at the age of five? He would probably vomit after watching it.

 

[AK47Marine]

Hahahaha I love how all the fox haters immediately get the rug pulled out from under them, what nothing to say about how CNN is a bunch of tossers too? Cause really they (the MSM) are all tossers, prefering one over the other is like prefering to get get hit with a hammer on the left or the right side of the face.

As to the actual story, the sheer amount of bias and stupid in there is hilarious, and the grandfather needs to go around smacking some sense in to all the idiots with children.

 

[ArandomHobo]

Parents sometimes just take things to much. It's not like they're having real sex. And telling this made people know nice going media

 

[Callate]

Whoever did the "reporting", they should lose their press card. This is sensationalistic shoot-first, run-the-errata-on-the-back-page-the-next-week anti-journalism at its worst.

 

[ReservoirAngel]

Imagine if they did advertise this game on Nickelodean...

"New, from Microsoft! Hey kids, now you can learn where you came from...the FUN way! Available only on 360."

 

[lvl9000_woot]

Heh.

A sex hack that arouses something. Heh heh.

Ahhh don't worry about it. What's the worst that could happen?

Bet these kids have seen worse on the internet already....

This.

Though the article is filled with inaccuracies and plain ol' misinformation, one of the most salient - and genuinely true - points was made to that effect by Martin Valverde, Edwin's grandfather. "It all depends on the adult in the room, parental control is No. 1."

Also, this.
