Games permit virtual War Crime

There's an option to "skip" any offensive missions.

Slow news day.
 
In other News, Congress is considering outlawing the manufacturing of any spherical object that resemble Balls in fear of sports being played with them unless the players of said sports have Government Licenses granted after a 48 hour class. This is in an effort to curb this dangerous behavior of "Competition" from leaking into everyday life. Wussification of America Continues.
 
I'm surprised that they didn't say Mario Bros. was a "Plumbing Simulator".
 
Human rights groups played various games to see if any broke humanitarian laws that govern what is a war crime.
Why?

In particular, it said, few games it studied reflected the fact that those who "violate international humanitarian law end up as war criminals, not as winners".
Yeah, I can't wait for the game that includes a court martial hearing to punish such inappropriate conduct. Maybe there'll be a button sequence mini-game that you have to negotiate in order to survive cross-examination.
 
I think New York should sue Rock Star for all the collateral damages they "caused" in GTA4.
 
I'm surprised that they didn't say Mario Bros. was a "Plumbing Simulator".

Yeah, that Italian plummer has been assaulting turtles for 20 plus years and hasn't been locked up yet.
 
he is infringing on the turtles rights as sentient creatures

Via 2 Swiss based human rights groups? Your tin foil is showing
 
Okay, I guess I'll have to plead guilty to the mass murder of koopas, space pirates, stalfoses, moscow citizens, ninjas, locousts and countless races of the virtual world. Lock me up for the rest of my natural life, I feel so horrible for my crimes against viturality. I thought it was all fun and games riping off Liu Kang's head and spine, but that was so wrong. I think I probably single handedly put Umbrella Corp. Zombie's on the endangered species list.

Maybe all games from now on should end with your character sitting in front of a judge and being read all the crimes you committed over the course of the game.

"Yes, Mr. Mario, I'm sure you felt very strongly when the princess was kidnapped, but that does not give you the right to invade the mushroom kingdom and exterminate our koopa population in you attempt to get her back. We do have law enforcement here, if you just would have contacted the proper authorities, all this might have been avoided. Due to this laundry list of crimes you aren't even going to be able to spend time with the princess you worked so hard to save."
 
Gamers are still going to buy video games that commit "virtual crime" including "war crimes"
 
We should also put at fault all those movies and books who put war, crime and death all over their dirty work.

Uwe Boll should be facing life sentence.
 
lol Far Cry 2 is in an African warzone and you're there to stop it, lolol s**t they'll try and get a story out of anything. It's crazy how many people assume we're all idiots, but hay, it's true. Sadly they're not reaching the people they should with their stories.
 
you get these people who have never even picked up a controller or understand the video game culture
 
Ignorance keeps the world interesting. :heart:
