Grand Council of Guardians oppose Violent Video Games

[tkoizumi]

if you cant tell the difference between reality and fantasy, why punish others by banning the product. just know your kid and make a decision not to buy the game. if a kid got hold of the game and plays it, you failed as a parents and should not make more babies. simple... my sister is allergic peanuts. just because minority is allergic and harmful, do they have the right to ban peanuts?

[alexinSL1]

It's convursol because they make it convursol

[stardustdragon7585]

oh my god stupid parents don't read these days

[MiracleComeBack]

in the 80s when i grew up, we had donkey kong, pac man, dig dug, galaga and so on. today we have nothing even similar to those i just mentioned. the question here is, do violent video games and movies effect the way the youth behaves? the answer is yes!! didnt the 1st rocky movies make you want to run or knock someone out after watching it? or didnt you want to hit someone with num chucks after watching Enter the Dragon? sounds funny, but its true. the Prison system is a Business -think about it

[MaoiMeowi2]

Wasn't there something similar that happened with Battlefield 2?

[XFerginatorX]

they thought that was bad? wonder what they think for games today. WAIT WAIT WAIT did she just say "Parents say often the games find there way into the hands of kids" wow parents must be having black out memory. "no jimmy you cant play that game its rated M" "plz daddy" "ok fine" "thnx" *later on the news* "i dont know how kids are getting these games and they should be banned" XD stupid american parents these days, always wanting the government to come in and help them parent

[XFerginatorX]

Rating X lol wait there is porn? XD

[Se7enBeatleofDoom]

Rating X is not even a real rating! And the movie rating bored in the US only go up to NC-17!

[MrTimbalis]

that game they showed when menched gta was tru crime not gta LOL idiots

[kakuzu12345]

I would buy my child a game that simulates gang violence because they know its not real, and so they DON'T join a real gang.

[lordnucklehead]

Knuckles up last guy they interviewed! he hit it right on! rock on bro \m/

[zeldagamerDX6]

like I said before. it's the parents job to offer guidence to the children.

they need to let the kids know. that you can't go doing this in reality.

because if you do, then it will have dire consequences.

[aerotem]

FUK DA POLICE

[sniffit123]

Lol we have Gears of war now!

[MrSomeGamerdude]

so if we make a game were you get to be the bad guy they should be banned? Fuck all those people who think violent video games is bad. wait were allow to have movies that content, cemical acts, cursing, violent, sexual content, blood, gore, horror, extremely graphic, death, terror, & kid endangerment in it but Video games shouldn't have any of those stuff in it? wtf its like telling a kid. "dont play GTA, but go off with your shady friends who has mile long rap sheet and history of violents"

[jedidude04]

What a fucking retard, this game would be rated X for shooting cops? Plenty of others do the same.

[airdroid2]

I have to admit, that game does look bad, mainly because the graphics are shit, but also a little because of the cop-killing. Ive played MW1 since I was 13.

[joshyboy319]

LOL GET A LIFE!! IM 14 and have played games like these and i havent murdered anybody yet!!!!!!!!! GET UR FACTS RIGHT B4 YOU BLAME VIDEO GAMES FOR EVERYTHING!

[brightclaw11]

its damn well appercitaed and its damn well wanted by the youth

[Tattas999]

WOW. Really? Have they even played other games? This game is no more violent than others, and it's ridiculous to create some "X" rating to seperate it from other M games.

[TheLordmep]

Don't purchase it for the damn child! If the kid gets ahold of a game that the parent doesn't want to the kid to have then its a failure on the part of the parents, not the game. Ratings exist for a reason morons.

[WOWFL123]

IF IT WAS A MOVIE It WOULD BE RATED X!!1! politics are just a bunch of retards that want people to live and see life as they live and see it. it would be a never ending nightmare

[giodude101]

politicians are assholes. havent people noticed that the people that complaint so much about violent video games are people that DON'T play video games. these debates are ignorant and stupid.

[Se7enBeatleofDoom]

the only crime this game has done is that it suck!

[Niklas323]

Oops. Never mind. I'm stupid. Anyway, the game is hardly the most violent game of it's time.

[Niklas323]

X is a rating for sexual content, not violence!

[supahdupahguy81]

Im glad i dont live in America TBH.... constant scaremongering of parents who are quite frankly, idiots, by pretentious neo-con/christian "social concern" groups?...ugh, no thanks...

The "Grand Council of Guardians"???? u can't be serious...

[DJ91990]

Once again proof that IT IS THE FAULT OF THE PARENTS/GUARDAINS and NOT US OLDER GAMERS!

Guy @ 1:49 THANK YOU!

[EyEnOtgAy]

lofl this game is so violent it be rated X if it were a movie haha dumbfuck polititions

[cbrulz1]

i find it hilarious how the media parents and maybe even the government keeps trying to find excuses to get rid of violent video games

[gocaitygo]

Fortunate for them that game sucked lol... brb I saw something violent so I must go kill somebody

[kendofiend]

Eric Gioia can suck my sweaty ballsack

[Sandsk8er]

The guy in 1:35 - 1:45 and 1:46 - 1:59has the right idea

[lionel346]

grow up americans worry abouth drugs or terroists or economy not video games

[baracine]

Video games create drug thugs and terrorists. They also destroy the American economy by making kids ignorant and illiterate and unresponsive to non-violent stimulus.

[superchaotix]

lol I really hope you'r kidding

[baracine]

Please Google: Video Game Controversy Wikipedia. Two of 12 incidents reported:

"June 2008: four teens went on a crime spree after being obsessed with Grand Theft Auto IV in New Hyde Park, New York (...)"

"On June 25, 2003, Joshua and William Buckner, 14 and 16, used a rifle to fire at vehicles on Interstate 40 in Tennessee, killing a 45-year-old man and wounding a 19-year-old woman. The shooters [said] they had been inspired by Grand Theft Auto III."

[xXsecretxXBW]

@baracine only ppl who has ADD or ADHD will get insrpiration to kill someone in real life because of the game... 

Normal people will understand its just a game.

[baracine]

@xXsecretxXBW

Actually, ADD is caused by video games and people with ADD don't have the concentration necessary to carry out a murder.

[zeldagamerDX6]

@xXsecretxXBW aggreed.



[TheOpenminded12460]

@lionel346 @TheOpenMinded12460 I agree, parents should worry about real drugs, real gangs, real terrorists and the real economy. They should not worry about violent video games, pornography, violent video games, or violent sexual books.

[zeldagamerDX6]

@lionel346 yea. and stocks, and 401k, and boring crap like that.

[Kreuschphoenix]

I hate these political parties that just target specific games to say, "Look were still here! We exist if you didn't know it and umm... oh yeah this is a bad game." They only attack games cause they think it really wins support

[puplake]

well thank god i know what the Grand Council of Guardians now thinks, like i could care

[monkeymandogthing]

Same

[SaiyanPrideAMV]

this is probably the best advertisement the game got, i never even heard about this game but watching this makes me wanna go buy it.

[WildSide86]

It's the parents responsibility - Don't blame the game because you suck at telling your kid "no"

[MrTREYGOMYEGGO]

why are they complaing about true crme when ur a cop in that game wtf

[stefman666]

because they do no research on the games. they go mostly by title, boxart, and sometimes they skim through the text on the back. :)

[metalxx7]

hmmm.... how come saw isnt rated x.

[thaseth94]

things like this just make me want to buy the game for my self to see.the more bloode gore nudity violence the better

[pizzaboy2cool]

the game sucks but there retarded as well saying it's bad... bullshit mabye they wre trying to say it's a bad game a bad game. hahahaha

[nintendodude4]

did i just see smart parents in the video? holy shit.

[narutomaster63]

Well, he has a point about the game not being wanted...it sucks.

[Tatsahiko]

Video games really don't change anything, the kids should know what's right and wrong and know they shouldn't do things that you can commonly do on GTA4 or games like it, and if they don't, they're probably too young to play things like this, I'm sick of the government blamming horrendous crimes done by minors on video games, if they were all removed, it really wouldn't quote,

'lower crime rate', or anything really, just make them a bit bored, they should really rethink their logic on games...

[TlGBC]

at least that man got something right. its rate 5.5/10. it isn't wanted.

[zedrein18]

Wasn't 25 to Life a shitty as game?

[xenowarriorre]

okay great, now prove that video games actually negatively affect people, and how about violent movies, music, and even books?

[lordsteel333]

wow sooooo violent yea right they should look at gears of war!! thats even not enoght violence for me........

[bengoro7]

ha ha ha ha rated x

[pshycoXred13]

Let's just say the world went a wek without games like GTA or Mortal Kombat(god forbid).What would change?Nothing.There would still be violence and crime.Banning a violent video game to stop violence is like banning Playboy to stop sex.

[Dogey124]

Of course the children are going to copy anything on a game if they are 5 and up. a study has shown that children of that age are currently learning about their surroundings. ANY PARENT WOULD KNOW THAT! SO IF THEY KNOW THAT WHY WOULD THEY LET THERE CHILDREN PLAY THEM. ZEEZ THEY HAVE BIG RESPONSIBILITIES. SO PARENTS STOP BLAMING IT ON THE GAMES INSTEAD OF REALIZING IT'S YOUR FAULT!!!!! THEY SAY THE AGE RANGE DUMBASSES!

[osomarinoblanko]

YOU'RE TOTTALY RIGHT PAL!! ;)

[960757]

Yeah parents? Why would you purchase this game for your kid? Can't you see the the huge M for MATURE on it?

[TMTGeneralDeath]

that game sucks

[thunderflash82]

I can't wait till they make the GTA of porno games. I'll probably have to illegally download it cuz these fuckers will probably ban it.

[MysticArksRevenge]

Fuck you, Eric Gioia. Because of the politician's ranting about violent videogames, movies and music in this country, THIS COUNTRY IS NOT FREE. This country will NOT accept anything indecent. That's why I hate the United States Government. I'd rether live in Japan because they don't give a damn about indecency in media.

[cheater87]

Japan censors video games a lot now.

[xXsecretxXBW]

@cheater87 no thats germany

[cheater87]

@xXsecretxXBW and soon the US.

[beni1011]

i hate these people who go after the virtual crimes and not the real ones. if people managed to bann all violent video games(which will never happen) it wouldnt change a fucking thing

[runkaballe]

I buy my games in the internet....

Or I visit the the bay of pirates...

[PlayOnPlaya17]

Those Parent's are fuckin idiot's.

[mandorulez08]

this game was so stupid and pathedic it didnt pass as a game if i had a child i would punish them by making them play it

[re4rockks]

the game sucked...but guess what bitches...THERES BEEN MORE GAMES BEFORE 25 TO LIFE THAT HAVE BEEN MORE VIOLENT AND HAD COP KILLING who cares its fun it doesent teach anything

[791928]

that true that game suck

[josephmccolley]

Um maybe because it's better to do things in video games then in real life. Let people kill in a fake reality so they don't do it in this real one.

[LaughingMage]

wow the thing is that 25 to life sucks anyway.

[9N8X]

God,Did people forget how to say "no"

to their kids?

you don't have to buy it for your kids

[Cheese71]

That's not true. VERY few games are violent enough to be rated Ao, or "X" like this guy said. In fact most "R" rated movies are more violent than "M" rated games!

[paulyrey]

ITS JUST A GAME!!! ffs sometimes i wonder why you guys are so pathetic.

[iloveallecchianime]

ok you little maggot kids if u think video games are real then shoot yourself...i will buy u a gun so u can do it please we dont need your retarded ass on earth

[samlegha]

I love that game. I own it and bet it.

[Cheese71]

I love it how at 1:13, they show Medal of Honor on the far left, which is rated "T" not "M", and they have it in a way that you can't even see the rating. If I were EA I'd sue WB for bad publicity, and I'm sure they can do that, especially since EA could buy out every damn television network in America.

[cybernaab]

hahaha retarded even fear and fearcombat has more blood and body parts then this shit ass game

[wiigamer92]

"parents buy it for them" oh look THERE'S the proublem

[shinobitech13]

25 to life?? are they serious?? that game blows elephant dick.

[Devilman2012]

this shit is funny.. i mean its like watching a real life episode of south park & shit.. how are kids gonna learn anything for themselfs when u got grown ups trying to tell them whats good for them? i mean all the good & bad ive learned in life was all frm me & the parents just annoy the piss out of me when they try to teach me what i already kno and dont care about lol

[spankinmysparky]

lmao, shittiest game ever, be my guest and ban it this company doesnt deserve money for making this shit.

[lolinternets1]

LOL! at 1:11 the game they were showing wasn't even GTA. It was Streets of LA. Nice going WB11 at making something look worse than it really is.

[lolinternets1]

I'm sorry but at the beginning did he just say that GTA was not wanted in NYC? DUMBASS NYC HAD THE HIGHEST SALES OF THE GAME NEXT TO LA.

[samael1981]

I can understand and even FULLY SUPPORT educating parents and keeping ultra violent games away from kids. But to PULL IT FROM STORE SHELVES so that I AT AGE 26 can't play it? That type of censorship crosses a line more than ANY game.

[FrosChannel]

Hah rated X. I think its called NC-17.

It wasnt a good game anyway.

[Nuxunumo]

the game got horrible reviews. the gamer at the end was right. non-gamers just don't understand it all.

[pshycoXred13]

Ehh,the game sucks monkey dick anyway!XP

[valentas000]

the game is cool i liked you zts99 dont fuck on this game, bich

[decap777]

The game wasn't even that good.

[zts99]

Yes pull this piece of shit away.
