The Iceman's Game Journal

After seeing Tim's Game Diary, I started this blog to give me some incentive to actually finish some of the 461+ video games I have (of which I have finished 41.) Hope it works.

Too Much Violence in Video Games?

Last Thursday, Attack Of The Show did a segment with Jack Thompson. here is the segment.



In the end, Mark and Kevin made the most sense when they said that it is up to the parents to watch what their kids play. It is not up to me. It is not up to Jack Thompson. It is up to the parents. If the parents want their kids to plat games like San Andreas, then it is up to them and they need to take resonsibility for thier actions.

One thing that is interesting to note is the fact that Thompson says that kids trained to kill while playing Doom. Last time he said something like that (and got into a fight with Penny Arcade starting here.) he said the it was Grand Theft Auto that was training kids to kill. Dude needs to make up his mind.
