@bruno0091: If the largest video game market starts to heavily regulate these titles, then retailers will stop selloing them, and developers will stop making them. Plus, there is no guidelines at what consists a "violent title." The law could extend into titles that are T rated, simply because it contains person on person violence.

I understand your concerns, but it's already proven that it works just fine. We have supermarkets selling games that still follow these rules.

Here's a poser and something I tweeted about to Patrick yesterday (Its_The_Dom), what if, instead of them trying to get them classified like porn, they took a more moderate approach?

What if they said, OK, we're going to move to a system more like the UK has for films and games, where the rating of the game (here, 12, 15, 18) determine the age the purchaser must be to buy them. That way it prevents younger children buying games (or films for that matter) that they probably shouldn't and puts more onus on the parents to be aware of what their kids are playing and what they're buying for them.

Surely that can only be a good thing?

They already have that. It's called the ESRB. This guy just wants to make it so that the government controls everything and says what they can and can not watch/play.. Stores already self police themselves and refuse to sell to kids if it's an M rated game if an adult is not with them, and if they are they point out to them what it is they are buying for the kid in case they are one of those parents that are too lazy to raise their own kids.

Yea, but the difference is, over here, it's the law (insert Judge Dread pic here), it doesn't rely on stores self regulating, which, lets be honest, I don't imagine they're super strict on if it means they're missing out on $60 or whatever in a missed sale/

The fine folk on the GFAQs UK board have a topic of dubbed music over the ME3 trailer. I like:

No they're not, the BBC is, generally, regarded as one of the best unbiased media + news sources in the world. It's an issue that needs to be discussed, but I think the thing that annoys most gamers, is that this addiction can be applied to any activity really, often it's merely a glaze for bigger issues, something they do allude too, but don't spend much time on it. 
 
Ian Livingstone sums it up really : 
 
"You could say people get addicted to football (soccer for you Americans), or get addicted to TV – they used to say people were addicted to television."

Aperture Corporation has won an election over the Combine forces in City 17. In order to expand their business to a larger scale, they chose to take over different sections of the city, evacuating all citizens of the section to build their headquarters. All citizens who resist shall be either apprehended or killed.

Jacknife seeks revenge on this corporation. He saw his wife get brutally beaten and arrested by a secret agency under the Aperture Corporation because she resisted to evacuate with all the others. It is now his mission, his life, and his goal, to save his wife under the clutches of Aperture, and put an end to the one who's responsible for all of this.

Part action, part free running, part thriller, comes a unique storytelling adventure told without any real dialogue.    
 
Impressive video. Must have taken a long time to make, you can see quite a heavy Mirrors Edge influence in it, which is no bad thing in my book.

You have to play as a single naamed character? What happened to continuing your story from Origins? What happened to choice? What happeend to your old party and all the decisons you made?

**** that ****.
