thats sooo wrong.
unless she is paying, then its fine.
Yes, yes she is. She dragged me out.

well thats fine then!

what the hell? i played violent games when i was 8.. younger.
who do you think you are, god boy.
You needed a question mark at the end there. The sentence made no sense. Yes, I am morally christian

obviously it made sense or you wouldnt be able to answer it.
being morally christian explains alot,
you obviously have no grasp on common sense and logic.

YES IT IS!!
you get bonuses for running over lines of guys that look like monks.
you are an idiot.
Final Fantasy 1 is more violent.

never played it, but that doesnt change my point.
something being more violent doesnt mean the other thing isnt extremly violent.

But Vice city on the other hand is by far the most graphically worse one. Prostitution, Drugs and Viloence being the main themes. Stupid women.
its only graphically worse because technology has improved, its the same concept and about equal levels of violence and drug references.

Your thoughts?
you shouldnt be let out of the house.
Neither should you. Now stop flaming me, and agree with fellow Newgrounders. Bet that that women was Ebaumsian.

im not trying to flame you, i disagree with your argument.
why would i agree with fellow newgrounders when they say something as stupid as this,
i will defend the kids right to play violent video games to my death!
newgrounds encourages kids to play violent games.
if you dont like it, leave.

You have a fair point. I see what you mean. You shouldn't defend kids rights to play violent games.

Yeah that is kinda fucked up.
The kid probably's going to think its cool to act like a gangster.
I think he'll own a gang when he's 12, and get aids when he's 15. And die from an overdose when he's 19.

I think the fact of the matter is the parents should decide whether or not they should choose what games there children should play. I dont think we should just let some organization say what video games a person should play at what age. I think you should leave the parenting to the parents not the goverment but, if the kid goes on a rampage and says the video games made me do it then i think the parents should have there kids taken away from them because if the child thinks this there is something wrong with the parents not telling the child this is wrong you shouldnt do it and this is just a video game. However there are thousands of children out there playing these games and you dont see them going on rampages.

it's probably because of things like that that some people are so hatefull against videogames. Then again, it's people who let their children buy these games in the first place that the guilt is to be placed upon. most of the anti-gaming people are ussually on their way to the nursing home..

I didn't quite cry as much as I wanted to beat her sorry ass. Games like GTA helped me reach where I am today.

Her mother walked up to her and her brother ran past and stood on one of those crappy machines that you put money in and it bounces up and down. The kid was probably about 8 or 9. He was holding a DVD/Game box. I looked at it.

See this story had me going and gettin all excited for some kinda disgusting or shocking ending like the kid fell off the machine and smashed his face on the pavement or something really crazy..but then when you got to this part here:

I stared in horror. Guess what the game was? GTA Vice City. In the hands of an 8 year old. I wanted to slap the stupid women for letting him have it.
Your thoughts?

My thoughts are you shouldn't care how other people raise their kids or what they buy them. If a parent wants to expose their child to something of that content then it's their choice, just because you weren't allowed at his age is no reason to freak out.

Haha. It's sad how people will blame the Games. Not the Parents. :(

It's sad how people will blame the parents, not the kid's idiotness.

If some kid plays GTA and goes on a kill spree, it's not becasue the kids parents are bad. It's because the kid is an idiot. THE END.

i don't think it was all that wrong. if the kid goes and does something stupid copied from the game, i wouldn't entirely blame the mother. yes, it is partially her fault for buying the game, but the person playing it can make their own decisions, even if they are 8 years old. and besides, it's the parents' responsibility to teach their children what's right and wrong in the first place. it's just a video game, and you know right from wrong, you're the idiot for copying a video game, not your parents or the game makers especially.
