Video game violence = IRL violence?Follow

The games of the future are gonna be sad if we don't find a new scapegoat soon T_T I can imagine it now...

-You press the 'fire' button on your controller, only for your character to, instead of a bullet, shoot off the comment of "I disagree with what you believe in!"-
-The enemy retorts "Well that's too bad", as a group of enemy soldiers carry you away, as they cannot shoot you on screen.-
-GAME OVER-

Then you'd toss your controller at the screen in anger and boredom, only to find it's made of Nerf-foam ; ;

The future is very bleak...

On the other hand, playing too much Mario Brothers as a boy has lead me into a heathen's life of eating mushrooms every chance I get and kicking turtles.


In Vanguard the road between Khal and Ahgram is lined with these short post things. Not sure what their real purpose is, but they look amazingly like Marios Bros pipes. I jumped on at least a dozen of them before I convinced myself I wasn't going to get any coin, sprout a pirahna plant or find an underground tunnel.

yea, one of the things i missed in EQ alot was the hidden passages, fake floors, and various things of that sort. D&D online had a few, but EQ1 rocked. they really made a great world no one has been able to best yet.

they need something like that in Vanguard. after they either fix the grouping problem post 30, or fix the group only mechanics. not gona be here long if they dont, so hidden passages would probably never be found anyway.

What?! I thought liberals were peddling violence and sex and **** and gays and the demise of our moral standards and the break-down of the family and TDS.

Make your mind up...
--------------------------------------------------

your confusing the "liberals" the "republcans" talk about. im talking about the real liberals. the ones that want gun controll, a tv and music rating system, and yes, more censorship of violent video games, like grand theft auto and the like.

they are more conservative than the fanatical right wants you to believe.
