"The video games that are being recalled feature snipers targeting and killing innocent people. Wal-Mart officials said they pulled at least seven video games off store shelves, including Terminator, Dawn of Fate, Tribes Aerial Assault and Rainbow Six, and Rogue Spear.

"If the snipers didn't have violence in their life, I don't think they'd be as violent as they are. I agree wholeheartedly with Wal-Mart in taking the video games off. And I think they should stay off," said Bobbie Harkey, a Tierrasanta resident and Wal-Mart customer.

Wal-Mart headquarters told NBC 7/39 that individual stores are allowed to make the decision to pull these products."

I am now very thankful that I don't live in America at this precise moment in time. However, if this banning comes over to the UK, I (and several hundred million other gamers) will not be happy. What doesn't make sense is that I did some research and found out that Wallmart still sell guns. Real guns, capable of killing, but they pull computer games off the shelves. What a c***-eyed governement, or "three-ring circus" as I like to call it.
