The Seeker 3,048 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 My parents got me an xbox when i was 13 with Halo, then Grand Theft Auto and various 16+ 18+ games, Call of Duty etc, my dad saw me playing GTA one day and said be careful lol. I used to play these games for hours on end and being exposed to that kind of stuff never did me any harm....plus i've lived my life in the real world, drinking, womanising, shooting, fishing, driving etc... I can't have a bad word to say about the games, the 'real world' is a nasty place anyway OK so it didnt affect you but I'm sure it does other kids, are we surprised at young ones smoking weed at 11 year old or telling the teacher to F*ck off if this is what they are glued to 5-6 hours a day every day? I was still playing with Action Man at 11 not thinking I was some gang banger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Frann 882 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I love it me (but then I get paid for writing/playing games so im biased ) 1) Gamers are sad. Why? When indoors I enjoy playing games. The majority of the population prefers watching television which I personally find boring much less interactive.2) Gamers need to get a life. .. I do have a life, Playing games is a nighttime activity for me. It does not stop me going outside and spending time with my family. On a night time I prefer to relax on a console. In my younger years I used to go out and get hammered. I know which period of my life I'm more embarrassed about.3) Games are a waste of £40. My wife spends more on #$%$ in one week than I spend on games in a month. I don't begrudge her that. I'd prefer she stopped but it's her choice. £40 will get you a night out if you're lucky. A game like GTA can last months.4) Violence in video games causes violence in real life. Rubbish! Maladjusted people cause violence in real life. People prone to violence can be tipped over the edge by watching a film, television, alcohol, or even someone looking at them in the wrong way. 5) GTA V shoul not be successful for x) y) z) reason... GTA is a massive artistic and technological achiebvement. Years of careful crafting went inot it's creation AND it is was created by a British company. All that revenue coming into the country should be celebrated 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just out of interest mate whats his job got to with things? Aye, can't see the relevance myself.. Some of the worst parents I know are the well off ones who spoil their kids and just chuck them whatever they want in the same way you throw a dog a bone to keep them quiet and out of their hair.. Being a responsible parent has got f**k all to do with what job or social status you might have.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lab 10,979 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Amazing how a computer games can drum up heated debates. Whether you think its ok to let your 12/13 year old play on 18 plus games is up too you as a parent and nobody else. Maybe its a 'my home my rules' scenario but ffs just think back to when you were 12/13 and what you got up to and what you spoke about with your mates.....a hell off alot worse than some graphics on a computer screen. I dont buy this kids going of the rails, shooting, stabbing and beating folk up because they have played a game.......if your a wee c**t your just a wee c**t!!! I like to wind up the lads on here and F/B who choose to play these consoles......but realistically i'd love to have the newest console out there........with all these live links and headsets you can have some real good banter in a night. When moneys not a problem( if ever hopefully) i'll treat myself to the newest one, link up to the sheep shagger in Tenby and blow his f***ing head off in Call Of Duty........ 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
