Should games be censored. Surely we should be allowed to play whatever we like, see whatever we like, do whatever we like in the gaming world. The internet is currently uncensored, and has been so for 43 years, (unless your parents have censored it for you with specialist software), and what harm has it done. Heard of any internet violence, internet incited crimes? No, or not any that could have been caused by a multitude of other reasons.

So the same should be with games for consoles and PC's. They should never be subject to the same censorship laws that affect films. That's my view, what's yours?

Nope, the internet has only facilitated the activities of paedophiles, not caused it. Various explanations for why this particular type of human exist, some say it's genetic, some say a mental illness. With proper monitoring of activities on the web, by say the police or MI5/6, these people can be locked away, as they deserve to be, and the people responsible for posting the material to the websites prosecuted for whatever pornography laws they have broken. This material is obscene because it is not legal, there is a difference between that and normal censorship. Illegal material should never be allowed to get on the web in the first place, thereby negating the need for censorship on the web.

In Britain it has been proven that a high percentage of paedophilles have found it on the web and thats what started tham off!
