Psychopaths are psychotic and fucked up irrelevant of the games they play.

 

[mirakon]

It is.


But shit kids can still can get access to the parents secret place.


Can we organise a rally or something in SA?

How many guys here are from SA? I agree we need a demonstration because dozens of letters have been sent to no effect.

Or maybe, we could organise some type of public debate somewhere?

The above is some selected extracts from a response from Michael Atkinson to a letter from our fellow gamers at Kotaku.
SAUCE: A Letter From Michael Atkinson | Kotaku Australia
SAUCE (scanned response): R18-Michael Atkinson.pdf

There are many holes in his argument. Have fun.



Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
WTF is wrong with this guy, mabye a gamer should have a say in this, true gamers really dont play Wii.

Atkinson's a douche. No gore on the wii? What about Madworld and No More Heroes (US version). Doesn't have any idea what he's talking about and then goes on about being an expert in keeping our children safe.

It became clear he had no good argument when he said he challenges any gamer who believes the public is in against VG censorship to challenge him in the next election, to test this claim. What a fucking idiot? Thats a cheap move and he knows it.

Also- FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU Atkinson.

Why would any non-murderer or rapist want to play such an abhorrent, torture-porn game? I applaud M.A. for standing up against these violent video game thugs trying to push their sickly blood murder simulates and rape manuals on our vulnerable children.

A copy/paste of my post in the Oflc thread:

The Saw series of movies are worse than Left 4 Dead 2, and they release those happily. L4D1 was actually quite tame compared to some games and movies out there.

We need a change of ratings, obviously, but it won't happen without a stand from the gaming community. Petitions could be signed but that never really goes anywhere. We need to figure out a good way of clearly projecting our views in a manner that they WILL take notice.

I mean, I bet most of "The Board" are 50 year olds that have never touched a console controller.

They should really create the R18+ classification and require I.D. be presented while purchasing. That way if a parent buys an R18+ game and their kid is disturbed by it, IT'S THE PARENTS FAULT!!! (Taking away Michael Atkinson's validity in the situation).

“The game contains first-person perspective, close-up depictions of human characters being subjected to various types of violence, including explicit decapitation and dismemberment as well as location damage such as stabbing through the chest, throat, mouth or eyes."

Isn't that in the Predator movies as is? (Excluding the first person XD).

 

[SnowFox]

Apparently not the eyes.

 

[Phoenix Fury]

gayyyyy

I have to disagree, I applaud Mr. Atkinson.
Keeping these virtual games or 'lessons' out of the country is for the best.
It keeps a lid on the fantasies of those creepy loner types, they must be told that part-taking in violent online guttings and lynchings is not on.
I can't believe you people actually want to purchase this stuff, I'd hate to think that you'd ever have young children around the house, what would happen if one was to accidentally stumble across you basement 'collection'?

The only people that seek out this kind of stuff are introverted factory-workers who have a fetish for violent beheadings, so admit to being one, or be silent.

Most of the rest of the world disagrees. You may aswell be saying "ban R-18 and M-15 movies" because the content in them is far worse than the majority of games.

There are steps to avoid the games getting into the hands of little kids, and those disturbed few that "have a fetish for violent beheadings" are probably better letting it out on a computer game anyway. No matter what, these violent, disturbed individuals will find an outlet and it would probably be better that it be a virtual outlet other than one based in reality, don't you think?

The issue about children is easy to contain, such as my I.D. being presented for the purchase of 18+ games, and when or if kids come to your place, simply unplug the console, hide the leads and games and monitor the games they play if you allow them on it.
