Editorial: Should We Let The Government Decide The Creative Future In Video Games? | GamerLive.TV

Throughout the history of video games, the oldest stereotype surrounding the industry has always been do violent video games affect player behavior and personality. It is a known fact that people who play games are exposed to more violence than the average consumer. From nuking entire civilization to obliterating players online, it’s has become more and more common now that games are more focus on squarely providing violent action.

Its all bull shit...the media will blame any form of entertainment for someones mental state of mind....people in society have always committed acts of violence way before video games existed...

Anything kids like are to be blamed by parents that have no clue what to do to raise their kids.

Comic books were blamed for it, even books were blamed for it. Thats why we have rating systems on everything. It's surprising music isn't back under the radar with how stupid it is these days.

Hell no. The Wii Play shooting range would become one of the most graphic shooting games around by comparison to the ones which would be released if this happened.

More interested in money than giving fans what they want. Such a shame

CrimsonWing6925d ago

With the amount of money they generated, I just don’t understand the scrubbing of this. It would’ve been fantastic for fans.

I really want to know who drove the decision to focus on multiplayer was it Rockstar or take two.

Because when online started taking off many of the studio leads began having falling outs and leading including a founder

Ikr mfs that greedy it's ridiculous

andy8525d ago

This makes me sad. Trevor was one of my favourite characters in gaming

Demetrius24d ago

One of the reason I believe once gta 6 release, most of us thoroughly play it, enjoy the world they crafted then after that no offline support, no dlc at all
