@mrzero1982pt2 @Chai_Tea You totally misinterpreted my message. Just because I enjoy blowing things up in a game doesn't mean I'm gonna go try it in real life. The game is in fact glorifying violence, but only the disturbed would actually translate that to real life. If I play a dating simulator, would I use the pick up lines in the game and expect to get laid after every date? If I play a first person shooter, do I expect my aim to dramatically improve at the range? If I'm playing a real time strategy, does that qualify me to run the company I work for? No. Glorifying violence in a game and promoting violence in real life are two different concept. It's people who do not understand this difference that automatically equate violence in video games with violence in real life.
(sigh) Actors....they're all idiots. Of course this game glamorizes violence! It's part of the sales pitch. Shoot anything, beat anyone, steal any vehicles, and so forth. This is the premise of the game. A sandbox of immediate satisfaction. Yea, your character may be miserable, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna feel miserable when I take the tank and run over pedestrians while blowing up every vehicle for the next two miles. Next time keep your mouth shut and just read your lines.
Why don't they just come out and say what they think truthfully, " We just think all PC players are pirates." We want to make sure we can sell as many copies as possible before we put it out there on the PC." Muahahahahaha.
Are the people at Microsoft living in a sitcom? I swear they would fit right into the Office. They just come off as unintentionally funny. This is good stuff.
