Now as humans we are violent. We start wars, fights, bar room brawls and footbal match violence.

I very much doubt that we like to feel pain and be hurt. So why do we want to show the ability to hurt someone through computer games, yet you say that there only pixals and graphics they can't feel pain. although It can be exciting, why do we want to do violent things, it's not helping us.

If we don't like violence then way do we make games and films about it. Although it is part of human surival, we don't make films about drinking water or eating.

So why violence? I know it relieves stress if you go home and shoot someone but we don't have to spend £30 on that just buy a stress reliever and if you're really annoyed then punch a wall like i tend to do.( it hurts but it the end it works)

I'm not saying that we shouldn't have violent games i quite enjoy a bash at Medal of honour. All i'm saying is why violence?

Funny, we don't use the word 'Townies' where I come from.

Its 'Bra's'. As in brother, as in 'Safe Bra'.

Razz.

Yeah. And phrases like wicked, innit and bling bling travelling through the air. I think i hate about townoies is that they don't seem to understand that Ali g is taking the mick out of them not saying that it is cool to be like one.
