Darryl Linington from ITF Gaming writes: The video game industry has been targeted once again for promoting violence, sexual themes and unhealthy marathon gaming. Let’s be real, allowing children/teenagers to play video games that are not intended for their specific age group can be classed as taking a child to an R rated movie, or even supplying them with alcohol while under-age. These ratings and age limits have been placed on the product for a reason and should not be ignored. We support healthy gaming habits and we do not blame the video game industry for any acts of violence or anti-social behaviour. We do however believe it is up to the parents to monitor and track what their children are exposed to.
It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.
The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.
Scrawl: "Looks like we know how that new Compile Heart countdown is going to end. The latest issue of Famitsu has confirmed that Agarest Senki 2, known as Record of Agarest War 2 in the US, is Compile Heart’s newest title."
1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.
Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Seriously? Research has been done that PROVES that video games doesn't lead to violence, it actually relieves stress and calms u down
Trivia time:
Did you know violence didn't exist before the advent of the Video Game?
In fact, Video Games were one of the major contributing factors to the start of the crusades.
Richard I, after a rather lengthy session playing the classic Call of Duty: Battle for Hastings, triggered the protracted conflict after a 10 year old Arab child called him a "faggot" over Xbox Live.
The more you know...
its funny how people still blame videogames for everything, but movies dont get blamed for their obsesive violence, or how videogames stereotype women, go listen to a shitty lil wayne song, and youll understand.
This is a reflection of parenting these days, not video games. How do u let ur kid sit in his room for 4 days? I know, because he probably rules the household with temper tantrums etc. You can't discipline children anymore, so u look for babysitters and video games r wonderful at that. She says no more Xbox. I wish I knew his gamertag, because my guess is that he is back on in a week.
I cant believe he would stop him from playing Arkham city when batman is all about justice. Stopping a kid from playing batman is villainous.
