They might as well smack a AO rating on every trial disc for AOL. Considering the internet is loaded with ****. And it's easier for a kid to watch **** on the internet (type: http://google.com and search for boob) then it is to ask their parents to buy a AO rated game (make $50.00).

The companys that make theses games could care less about who plays them as long as they make money in the end. It is sad however that there are people that would put that kinda stuff into a video game :| ...however people that blame all the violence and crimes in the world on this game should stfu. Just because timmy or tammy are violent little S.O.B's doesnt mean the game made them that way..mabey ur just a crappy parent or grandparent. Then the people that get caught stealing a car then blame the game are total idiots. The game didnt say "JIM GO KILL THAT HOOKER THEN STEAL HER CAR!"..its out of thier own stupidity. Then the govener of illinois saying all M rated games are evil ****o fantisys and stuff. It makes me sooo mad that one game gives all M rated games a bad name >:|

Maybe if parents actually pay attention to what their kids play then it won't be such a big problem. Its like the internet, if parents don't watch what a kid on the internet then they watch ****o. Then why don't they go make a big fuss about the ****o sites?

it's just irresponsible when the parent denies their own fault for not paying more attention to their kids and places the blame on an industry like video games.
besides, if your kid can get his hands on a M rated game, play it, and imitate it, then you havent done a very good job protecting your kid from that stuff or teaching them morals havent you? im just saying that kids that imitate video game violence are either very very naive or their parents havent taken the time to sit down with them and tell them what's right and wrong

One of the reasons I even play gta is because I can do something on a video game that I will never in reality. Thats why i play most video games, like counter-strike. I play because I will never kill people in reality, but in a game I can live another life without hurting anyone.

roflmfao your funny pt14.. spire of honor hehe..

so yea i think its been said and done that parents need to tell them children from right and wrong. u know what i mean..

and your right Mr Blaine Ng thats just one of the reasons why gamers play these games of today. I dont think anyone really wants to be responsible for anyone else's death.. as concequences may apply..

If Adults dont want theyre kids playing Bad M+ Rated Games.. Then they shouldnt buy it for them. It is infact the Adults fault that this is happening. Mostly it is the Lawyer that did this, I forget his name, but he is also trying to get The Sims 2 M/Adult Rated as well, especially the new Expansion Pack coming in September. Indeed.. Most Lawyers are D**ks, But.. There is really nothing we can do.. Hopefully the New Grand Theft Auto for the PSP will NOT be Adult Rated.

It would really be a pain it the GTA for PSP is Adult rated. It would really prevent me from buying it. It would just make it more inconvient for me because I have to drag an adult along to help me get the game.
