No Gore!? Why not the favored "Minor Menu"?

Problem this days is that the makers from games and movies know that violence sell,so you see most of the games are agressive now,words as "i'm gonna kill you" or your last day is come"appear very offen.So every game that isn't that way get my support because i don't like agressive hategames!!!!

I'm very interested in the gaming industry and have read many studies over the years. If you are interested Cap'n Toast, here is a link that I could find quickly.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

No worries, I think we are all friends here. Thanks for the link. Found it interesting the age difference between console gamers and PC gamers. I too and one of the old breed who grew up on computer games. Never owned an Atari console machine or nintendo etc... But I sure wore out the keyboard on my old Atari 800 XL and Commodore 128.

As far as TV ratings go, if they continue to put out this reality TV silliness, I am going to shut off my cable all together! I'll make my own survivor show - how Cap'n Toast survives being marooned after his crew mutinied! Now playing!
 
Rant

Back in the old days when `Pac-Man` first released, I was burning down fields and dropping cat's in containers with mojave greens. People are naturally evil, even your week end sunday warriors. If there is anything to blame for the rise of violence in society.... look to the food. Current studies show that meats are a contributing factor in the accelerated growth of children. FDA say's the amounts of steroids and hormon injections in animals are at safe levels.... but when you look at your ButterBall Turkey at 79 cents a pound. That ButterBall only took a year to grow to reach 18 pounds... a naturally grown organic turkey takes 4+ years! Yeah, the protien shakes are at safe levels.... With the population at it's size we have no choice but to allow such chemical enhancements to continue or the next HappyMeal you buy may actually be 20 bucks...each.

People do not relize that gasoline actually causes cancer just from contact, either liquid or vapor. Mice that were exposed to the gas at high levels all developed cancer. Funny thing at the end of the report they felt that human interaction with gas was safe and humans would not likely develope any cancer. I feel for mechanics who use gas to degrease parts....

All agencies are quick to point the finger to something other than themselves. People can't know the truth, because we can't handle the truth. Social Security will go under in 2036, as it stands now I only get 71% of what they show that I should actually get. FruitFlies, they lost the battle, now FDA says fruits can contain 5% fruitfly egg's, they diverted the funds to other areas. The cure for cancer ! project dropped even with 92% reduction in cancer cells on the first injection upon a lab rat. (very interesting concept they were working on) Chemical attached to food particals via blood cells, that chemical tells the portholes on a cell wall to open up to suck in the particals. Difference is cancer cell portholes are a lil smaller than regular cells so they are able to plug the cancer cell portholes. It was raved as the universal cure, yet it is now lost.... over population concerns ? And these are the people society listens too...

"Ring around the rosey, pocket full of possies, ashes ashes we all fall down"
children rime to make fun of the commoners who were die'n from the black plague....what...700 years ago. Just goes to show that regardless of what ever gore levels are in a game, it will not affect the obvious outcome.
 
Since we are all doomed, I have cancelled my preorder of Pirates! I mean, what's the point? I am now planning to get some seeds and move to the wildnerness where I will grow safe corn and hunt for rabbits... What? Acid raid you say? Contaminating my corn? Ahhhh screw it! I'll just stay here and play Pirates! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Seriously though, I am not sure I got the burning fields and cat containers reference. Lost me on that one.
