of gamers were minors.
Which that study pretty much acknowledges if the average gamer has been playing since they were before 17. A fact you blatantly ignored.I didn't ignore you at all. I answered you twice.
You can't compare Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 to Sonic the Hedgehog. You can't even compare the latest Mortal Kombat to the original. And MK was the game that started this whole damned debate.
Games today are much more graphic in their depiction of violence than ever before. You really can't compare them. Now, I know you are sitting there either confused or smug. I will go with confused, because you keep coming back to this.
The point you are missing is that the ID card is only rumored to be for M rated games. The games I played when I was 17 would be T or below. Until MK came out, there were no M games. It was the first.
So, had this system existed then, I would still have been able to play all but one game.
Are you kidding me charlie? Mortal kombat is mortal komabat,period. I don't give a damn if the colors are pretty or not it was still violent yet it was the most family played game back in the day.
Call of duty isn't even bad,it's a game. The only time games like that become an issue when you don't make sure the kid understands that. Games can't transition into real life if you don't supplement it such as by buying nerf guns or teach a kid how to shoot. It you let them acknowledge it is a game and leave it at that then no issues.
What? I don't have an issue with you so i don't understand what that was called for. I am not "confused" in the sense you mean it. I just don't see the need for the government to start parenting which that was the point of the two people having kids in the first place.
But you can't say that for the kids now when everything is perceived as "violent". which i think is the issue, you are getting older and starting to do that weird conservative stuff even though i am technically the conservative here.
The point with the average gamer is that study should be voided if the played mortal kombat. Not to mention if a more current one was to take place nearly everybody would say they own an M rated game which would make it more complicated if the true average gamer isn't 17 and plays these games.
The age should honestly be lowered to 16 if not 15. All everybody ever talked about playing in high school was CoD and i feel like if you are old enough to drive you should be able to play a video game.
Grey, I'm done.
You aren't grasping what I'm saying, and I am tired of repeating it. Hopefully, hen you get older you will see what I was saying here. Lord knows I repeated it enough.
