Much of the games out on all platforms either involve war, or some kind of death.As does the film industry. With what has happened in America and what is happening now, will the games industry and films industry ever be the same again?

What started me to think this was the radio, on it was a woman talking about the tv series "Band Of Brothers" on BBC 2. She was saying that it was a waste of time showing it as people at the moment dont want to watch anything that involves a huge loss of life. Which is totally understandable.

I dont actually know the ratings of the show, but if they were low, will this affect games or Films. Are future films going to go away from anything to do with death or war now, are they all going to be soppy romantic ones. And the same for games, will we no longer have games like MGS2, golden eye, Operation Flashpoint?

I have haerd a few veiws on this which mainly say that yes, things will change, and that we will no longer have many games or films, as graphic as they have been in the past.

What are your views on this.
