Poll: Truly evil games

[savandicus]

That is a hard choice of games to pick from,

A close race between sims and manhunt. Manhunt is actually evil, whereas the sims is the embodiment of everything that is wrong with gaming.

Got to be the sims.

Any game where their like FREE TO PLAY, FREE TO PLAY! Then you find out that to be unique or good in the world you gotta pay real money, not so bad. But when your forced to play just so you can earn enough in-game money just to KEEP the weapons you buy, that's pure evil (Here's looking at you Battlefield Heroes). On the other hand a game that, while extremely fun and well-designed is designed so that you need to play with someone you can trust and know won't screw you over and kill you at any moment just to take your stuff(Heres looking at you Left 4 Dead). Come to think of it Valve games must be evil if they're awesomeness can somehow turn most gamers into bitter, unlikable assholes who are never, ever satisfied and will attempt to boycott an awesome looking sequel to an already awesome game *Cough* Left 4 dead 2 *Cough*.

The Sims is pretty evil, you can torture little people as much as you want for as lng as you want and the fun part is, you can try and kill them all in different ways so you can see all the pretty multicoloured ghosts!

The and the fact that when you get down to the actual gameplay, it's monotonous and repetative and for goodness sake it's a life simulator, don't play it, go out and actually do it! That's what life is for!

I'm pleased to see we have some very obvious Yahtzee fans here.

Your the one that created a thread concerning evil video games when he comments about video game malevolence frequently.

Personally Id say WoW. I used to be one of those zombies.....

 

[rossatdi]

I think I'd direct you to the Japanese rape games...

 

[Flying-Emu]

Poke'mon. You enslave small, fluffy critters and force them to fight to the death against people you don't know for cash.

Why the hell isn't PETA on these guys yet?

Oh, because they're too busy bashing on Cooking Mama.

Are you serious, PETAs actually bashing cooking mama?

Whose the ninja now?!

Yeah Pokemans because come to think about it...its animal cruelty. Unless a Pokeball is very very awesome and safe on the inside and the animals like fighting I guess...

 

[notsosavagemessiah]

there is no such thing as evil video games, just morally blank people.

 

[Lonely Swordsman]

Pokemon, just for the pure innocence and childish charm surrounding the horrors held within it.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Rapelay.

I'm pretty open minded but that's a step too far even for me.

 

[Akai Shizuku]

Rapelay.

I'm pretty open minded but that's a step too far even for me.

LMAO. I would add that if there was enough room.

 

[Julianking93]

WoW.

Just watch that episode of South Park. I need not say more.

 

[Boxpopper]

Well considering that in the Sims 2 I made a small building I called the "Happy House" which I would lure my neighbors into with shiny LCD's, then delete the door and watch them starve... I also put a piano on the roof of it, so my eccentric and sociopathic Sim could play lovely tunes while the victim suffered.

 

[Synonymous]

While not *evil*, I would note that Animal Crossing, though marketed toward kids, is really way too needful of daily attention for them. I was losing an hour a day to that game while playing, and it's amazing how much of your effort can go down the drain if you quit for two or three days.

 

[Slash Dementia]

I'll have to say Pokemon. Those Pokemon beat the living Hell out of each other for your entertainment and for cash. Gambling, enslaving, animal cruelty... Truly a kid's game.

"There is no good, or evil, just shades of fucking gray" - Francis McReary, GTA4.

Games aren't evil in any way (With the acception of RapeLay), it's just some of the people who play them are idiots.

 

[Merteg]

I voted World at Warcraft because I played it for a month and it was the MOST BORING game EVER!!

 

[Jark212]

The Sims: Torture Simulator

Good times...

 

[Akai Shizuku]

L4D

What makes L4D evil?

 

[XSA37]

My vote went to WoW. It's amazing how many people completely lose all sense of existence because they are so wrapped up in their *insert nerdy accent* Level 47 Battle Knight! */accent*

 

[Macgyvercas]

My opinion would be the Sims, for utterly obvious reasons. Excuse me for one moment...

*Fanboy mode on*
Tomb Raider is awesome! It shouldn't be on that list! And you spelled her name wrong! It's L-A-R-A, not L-A-U-R-A!
*Fanboy mode off*

Sorry about that.
