With a lot of consideration of war going on and Bush acting as mad as he always was ( I am not an anti-Americanist for all those Bushophiles out there)I find myself wondering whether developers are doing the right thing pushing out war games at a rate of knots. Sure they're fun, in a way, if you take no notice of current affairs, but is it the developers at fault or us?
If you have no idea what I'm talking about read on... ( that line sounds familiar...)
One could argue that developers are thoughtless, mindless beings for making violent, graphic games. But when you think about it, they're only doing it for the money they rake in from us, the Bloodthirsty General Public ( referred to as the B.G.P.) After all, it is us that fuel the making of such games. We buy and play them with such enjoyment that developers have no real choice but to make what's good for their income.
Are war games goood or bad? I say bad, but I am eager to her your opinions on the matter too.

The title meant whether they're good or bad, not pressing them up and down!

I like violent/action/war games and the fact that I play them with my thumbs going up and down on the buttons makes them ache. So endeth todays lesson in subtlety.

Yes but you're not answering my question. Is it right for the manufacturers to make them at this time?
