this has got me thinking
after tradgic stuff like the london riots and the norwegian shooting you often get (please excuse my langurage) self rightious twats calling for the banning of violent videogames, one hilarious comment on a site "should we ban this stuff? just in case"...yeah sure not big deal...here take my video games I really dont mind, you obviously know better
(by that I dont mean peopel who are perhaps upset and looking for an answer...I mean annoying idiots who keep popping and want to ban videogames because they have problem with them)
anyway back on topic, lets say though if they did ban games with certain levels of violence, Im not realy sure what the criteria would be......could this actually be agood in a way?
now dont get me wrong, I dont think it would be good, I dont think a medium can really grow if its got rediculous restrictions on it
BUT on the other hand do you think it could make devs a little more creative in providing an experience? like more Portal and less call of duty?
OR would we forever be doomed to casual fluff and more mario games?
