Somebody at some point said "twisted open source". What's twisted about having free software? Software that you control? Unlike this forum software.

Are ALL video games evil? I just heard about 'Left Behind: Eternal Forces', and wondered if it was Godly? Perhaps is we had more Christian video 'games' we might have fewer school-shootings than we're seeing now? Certainly games like GTA, Manhunter, Doom and Super Columbine Massacre all influenced the virginia tech massacre, and several key others.

Violent Christian video game set to be Christmas bestseller



The comments from the mud-slimes made me laugh. Like theirs is a 'religion of peace'

Games hardly influenced the VTech massacre - Cho stopped playing games in high school he was indeed on his computer all the time - but his room mate saw what he was doing, he was writing poetry and stories revolving around anguish and tragedy.
Have you ever begun to think that the reason people lash out and kill other is because they are talked down upon / and mentally beaten?
Cho's girlfriend broke up with him - and everyone made him feel like an outsider. The kids at Columbine were the "weirdos" too - same with Weise of Red Lake. And if I had more time , exams for school in a few minutes, I would gladly sit here and prove all of your accusations on games being the cause of school shootings wrong.
Not everyone can take insults or mockery constantly and deal with it. And I'm surprised to see a Reverend talk so lowly of other people - Muslims and "Computer Nerds".
How can you even associate yourself with your religion if you are only going to mock others for what they believe. You should be ashamed of yourself.

I think the game itself will eventually blow over like a lot of the other killer games out there. Although,the more you try to generalize it as a bad thing and try to restrict it, the more people will be interested in it and will want to play it.

I predict even more people will post here evidence that video games don't cause murder, using as their evidence stories of video game players who went out and killed people. Just wait.

So hitler was probably playing violent video games when he thought about killing all those jews...I mean it makes sense after reading this topic.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 4: Murder Simulator to be released on Tuesda

Sure, they will release more of this type of games and sure, there will be more killings but the main problem doesn't lie with the games alone, the games are just a small part of a bigger problem. Why doesn't every gamer goes on rampage?? because he/she might have a different background. All the kids who committed these crimes had a history of not fitting in in there school or surroundings, there were bullied in school and were socially banned. How would you feel if you go to a school where you are subject to constant fear of being beaten, insulted and abused?? Yeah, many would feel hate and anger and along comes a little spider called a videogame, a tool so powerfull nowadays that reality get absorbed by fiction and that's the little spark they need to go on their rampage.

And now I hear many thinking, Yes, you see it's the Videogame who did it!! No my dear, the videogame isn't the one to blame, it's how other people treat people. The game is just a spark into the gasbotlle just before it explodes, it was destined to happen and it only needed a little push. The gaming world is big, very big and if the game alone would be the problem than things would have gone mad already but the clue is that many gamers just have a normal live, grow up and be perfectly sane people because they didn't have to endure all the abuse of some highschool punks who thought it was funny to make a little fun with "that geeky boy/girl".

Videogames are spawned in the bowels of hell. GTA is one of the most evil, hate filled examples.

Any definitive evidence that they do any more than certain TV shows, or say Fundamentalist religious texts?

Re: Grand Theft Auto 4: Murder Simulator to be released on Tuesda

As Uncle Goose previously mentioned, GTA 4 is only the catalyst to what could *possibly* happen.

There is no guarantee that this game will be the main reason as to why people go out and kill others. Look at the news for example. Yes, they mention how killing is bad but it is mentioned so often that it will eventually seem somewhat acceptable to do.

Tell you frankly (trying to stay as on topic as VictoryOS), by looking at the trailer of GTA 4 being http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU ... It wasn't nearly as bad as some of you have described it to be.

Please give me your input on this, I would greatly appreciate it.

That's not the GTA 4 trailer, it's a music video of some queer singing and dancing.

Firstly, I'd like to thank you for being lured so easily and secondly, you will be hearing much more of that soon.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 4: Murder Simulator to be released on Tuesda

The game known as 'Grand Theft Auto' is blasphemy, and attempts to portray reality as merely a playground to man, I find it sickening that this imitation of life is allowed to be thought of, let alone produced, for only the lord may take and produce life, one bazooka shell at a time.

So, fellow protestors, I am with you in this vast fight for man kind's last few steps of dignity before we are plunged into an apocalypse of religion vs gamers armed with their guitar hero guitars. I have successfully boycotted numerous stores, including lining up for 4 hours to purchase one of these vile games in a hope to lead a gamer onto the path of righteousness.

May god smite all associated with video games.
