It seems that everyone is looking to blame something or someone for the problems that we face in the world. It's no surprise that violent video games and how they are marketed is constantly under the microscope. Where do you stand on this issue? Does video game violence influence human behavior? Anything you have to say, let's start talking about it. Otherwise, we stand to let someone else make the decisions for us.

Look, she may not look like much, and you may question the style, but she's a good hairdresser and it's below he belt to call her a zombie.

I don't mind going over old topics again, there are different people coming to these forums all of the time, and it's good to hear lots of different views on the subject.
If you no longer wish to discuss it, then don't post anything, don't try to belittle what is a rather interesting topic.
Back to the matter in hand. Videogame violence.
I think that it's true what someone previously said (sorry i can't remember who it was), there are a small number of psycho's out there that will do crazy things wth or without the influence of videogames, but what makes these people psychos?
Is it being subjecting to material that isn't suitable for them, such as films, and games? If so, then shouldn't parents shoulder some responsibility for what they let there parents watch/play? That's why ratings on games and films are a good thing, and why you kids shouldn't be letting any younger children sit on your laps as a zombie tears a chunk of flesh from your skull. I don't know if it would have any effect, but i wouldn't take the risk.

Your mate will probably just take your £40 and buy a bangcock chick boy, tell you it was stolen from his hotel room or something.
It's only a PS2 anyway it's not like it's the worlds most amzing thing.
Worth the gamble though, all things considered.
I wouldn't want a imported console, i would want a reliable pal version.
