Well they have started to attack DOAXVolleyball, of course their spokesperson was the head of the national organization of woman. Saying blah blah this doesnt look like real girls, blah blah, no really, but who cares hehe.

VX · Dec 19, 2002

They're probably pissed about the game because they can't look as good as the girls in DOAXV.

If the game was based around real girls, 8/11 characters would be neurotic sluts, 2 would be boring and fat, and one would complain about the way women are stereotyped.

games aren't about reality. these bitches should realize it and get back to cleaning.

That's the point, brainiac.

Tell her to go eat some more McDonald's and STFU!

This kind of thing always happens... I hope those women's own son's beg them for the game until their ears bleed and they break and end up hypocrites for supporting the *nasty regime of Tecmo* (Note: Sarcasm).

Dumb soccer mom whores! Always got something to bitch about. Prolly still mad they didn't make home coming queen or some shit, and will be happy when the MILF HUNTER ends up picking them up at a food court in a mall somewhere and then they're all over the Net. Talk about embarassing for some kid when all the kids at school see that shit... It sure serve them right... along with Liberman that politically correct cock sucker

All these kind of games where beautiful women are in the front of the scene are widely judged by women associations. I remember when Tomb Raider were released in France, association leaders wrote about it with the same kind of argument that you speak about.

I know that thats why I said, who cares....

I love how dumb these people are. As if the men in video games were "normal". It's kind of like how people scream about how games are objectifying women. How about all those super buffed up superhero-like men? Guys with shirts off? Guys in tight clothing? You see it at least as much as you see scantily clad women. Dumb asses.

I can't stand people who get so offended about something so unimportant. I mean, come on... getting upset about violence in games I can understand, because I honestly believe that some people aren't mature enough to handle it. But this? It's harmless.

Pretty close, except I'd say the number of boring and fat characters would be increased to 8. Then if it was Mortal Kombat you would have FATalities. <img src="graemlins/loco.gif" border="0" alt="[Loco]" />

Are you expecting me to say something about chick fight?

Nahhh

I don't expect woman's groups to go ape shit over it but I want to give lieberman a heartattack with it.

All joking aside they only attack it because it's the big new game on the block. what about fuckin Outlaw Golf and Outlaw Volleyball? Dumb bitches need to be shot.

In the Fort-Worth Star Telegram last month, a 13 year old wrote his own column called "It's easy to blame video games". I read it and I thought "Damn, this kid is a life saver to some of us." What he said made sense about how parents are blaming entertainment about everything. Some may remember over the summer that I posted something about the police sueing Rockstar for making GTA 3. American's get so dog gone worked up over stuff that is not important. If they want to worry about their kids playing those games, they shouldnt buy it for them. The store is a different story. They shouldn't sell the game to the kid that is under 17 unless their parent is with them to help them tell the difference between real and fake. Ya know, we tell this to soccer moms that they shouldn't buy the game, but they dont want to listen because us gamers are right. Since it's my 17th birthday today, I can get M rated games without the store hounding my ass.

every decade parents find something that they didn't, have when the were kids as wrong. something that steals their children. something that defiles, and perverts americas youth.

what did they have in the 90's till now
videogames (mk2-gta3)

what did they have in the 80's
heavy metal (twisted sister vs nancy raegan)

what did they have in the 70's?
drugs and sex (pretty self explanitory)

what did they have in the 60's?
rock and roll (elvis shaking his hips-beatles bigger than jesus)

what did they have in the 50's?
tv (kids sat around and watched tv instead o playing outside and doing homework)

i think parents know this, but they don't care. they don't see how contradictory their stance is. and how foolish it is to even try to prevent their kids from getting games. but hey they've gotta have something to bitch about.

I dunno about every one else, but no male where I work is a 12-stone musclebound strapping, rogueish chap that you see all the time in videogames.

I wish I was mind, I might actually start pulling if I was <img src="graemlins/tickled.gif" border="0" alt="[Tickled]" />

well, the local donkeys at the fox affiliate are having a "consumer alert" tonight about which video games are too violent for your family. WTF, it is up to each head of the household to decide what is appropriate. The retards at fox, can shove their "morals" up their asses. (lol, a news organization having morals, kind of contradicting don't you think?)

Oh ok

Maury V. · Dec 19, 2002

I just saw the special on Dateline just now and the topic was about why the retail stores are selling M games to minors. They looked at five stores: Toys "R" Us, CompUSA, Circuit City, Wall Mart, and K mart. Out all the 5, Wall Mart was the only store that asked questions about age. The reason why kids were getting all of these games is because of the clearks. They break the rule in not selling the game to the kids. At the end, the stores gave advice to the moms that they need to study the rating system and if a their child want's to buy the game, they need to get their lazy butt out of the car and see what they are going to get. The only way, video games are vurnlable is when the parent knows what is on the game, they buy it anyway, look at it, take it back, and complain. The rating system is a good thing and all but soccer moms need to use what they wanted. Video games dont condemn violence if the parent dont keep them in full check.
