I think that video games aren't the problem, the kids are. I knew a senior that had a 4.2 GPA (not impossible, extra credit XD), was on the varsity Cross-Country team, and was the president of a club. Not to mention that he had a well-paying job, a nice car, and a girlfriend that he's had for over a year. He's an avid player of GTA and now Bully. Does he have any violent tendencies? No. Jack Thompson looks at the negative side of video games, but doesn't see the positive side. Is there a positive side to GTA and Bully? GTA shows that in real life, there are people that are going to be assholes. Same with Bully. |

Well, based on what I read on Yahoo! News, these people think the game states that the only way to live your life is "bully everyone, or you won't survive". I think they should give the game a chance. IMO, people are much too judgemental these days.

Bump!
Ohnoes! Bully has boy-boy kissing! GAY SEX. BAN THE GAME. Quote:
As was in the comments from the news site I got this from, it's clear that Thompson sees kissing as sex. So, that means any activity between any two people is sex, right? Holding hands is sex! Watch out! Obviously he wouldn't care if it were male-female kissing. So why is homosexual kissing wrong? What a hypocritical jerk. People can be heterosexual and not mind homosexual activities. I mean, nobody really minds female-female kissing. So why is male-male wrong? |

As it's considered "gay". And I think dear ol' Thompson doesn't want a whole second generation of "gay" people. I think people who have issues on "gay" people really don't have a life. And yes, Thompson is failing miserably. But Rockstar should probably put an M rating on the game so Thompson will shut up. Like the M rating has stopped minors from buying GTA before.

Uh oh guys.
You can make a guy kiss another guy in the Sims. Better give it a MA rating, even though the game is many years old and is currently obsolete. Also: go back and charge everyone who sold it to anyone in the age range of 14-17 with a felony. That's also ignoring the fact that you only have homosexual kissing if you CHOOSE to and that this homosexual kissing is not necessary to complete the game.

See, that's the thing with Jackie.
He ignores anything that doesn't come from Take Two / Rockstar. You could actually partake in gay sex in Fable. Not "kissing". Actual sex. |

Rockstar should still probably put an M Rating on the game so Jack Thompson can feel good. But this doesn't mean I support dear ol' Thompson; I still think that he shouldn't be pushing this hard for a game that has kissing. Kissing = not sex. A man sleeping with a woman = sex.
I think we all should come together in a picket line in front of the Rockstar building and protest that this game SHOULD hit the shelves, and stand on our reasons behind it. Also, somehow, I don't think dear ol' Thompson doesn't know when to quit and accept the fact that he's not gonna win. |

You can sleep with someone without having sex with them.
At least, I'm pretty sure I never had sex with any friends when I slept in the same bed as them.

lol, the game is fun, and thats all that matters. also as IAAW said, the rating never stops anyone from renting it, or buying it. it's your choice to do that "stuff" on that game. GTA is now the only game in the world at present rated A, and there is absolutely nothing bad about killing hookers!!! lol
anyway rockstar has pushed the limits ever since they became. just like south park. people are complaining about video games when they don't know their kids are watching stuff 10x worse on tv.

Pretty sure they gave San Andreas an M rating a while ago for different reasons.

Ya, I know. But they didn't talk about dropping it and not selling it.
