Anonymous Coward User ID: 590046 United States 01/18/2009 05:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A whole generation of people is entertaining themselves by killing people with these games. You younger people need to know that you scare us older ones and creep us out real bad. We think you're crazy to like this stuff so much. And we don't approve of the people who peddle it to you. It affects your well being because you deprive yourselves of sleep and aren't productive at your jobs, and it affects your values because it desensitizes you to violence and that's the scariest thing of all. These games are a project of the elite to desensitize young people to violence. When you really start seeing it, it won't bother you that much. And it was done because it is part of their plan to incite violence eventually and this is training for that time. But you young people don't think of stuff like that. If they bring back the draft you'll all already be trained in combat simulation. They're stealth-training you before you even know it. People should flat out boycott these games. If I was a parent I would forbid my child to play with them. |

They get filthy rich and you camp outside stores overnight to trample each other to give them your money! They make you poor at the same time they poison and coopt your mind, sucker. You are seen as a sucker with money in your pockets to be harvested and a mind to be indoctrinated. |

You're talking about shooter games - the games I play have a combative aspect to them, but most of the time the storyline has a strong theme of war being a terrible thing to bring upon a country. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 560955 Japan 01/18/2009 08:12 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Army invades the mall with video game recruitment station Wed Jan 14, 2009 2:29PM EST Pssst, kid! Wanna play some video games? That's the latest come-on from the U.S. Army, which continues to refine its approach toward engaging teens and twentysomethings. Having seen amazing success with recruiting thanks to its America's Army home computer game, the military is now taking the pitch to the mall. Specifically, to the Franklin Mills shopping center in Philadelphia, where it has set up 60 gaming PCs, 19 Xbox 360s, plush couches, and "rock music" for potential recruits to enjoy. There's even a real Humvee that players can shoot from installed as part of a 15-foot-high projected battle simulation and an Apache helicopter simulator that recruits can fly. Sounds like a killer gaming setup... but of course there's a not-so-ulterior motive at work. It's all part of a plan to get younger kids interested in signing up for service, thinking that shooting terrorists in active combat is all part of a day's work. [link to tech.yahoo.com] |
