"Games are not made for children. If a game has the name of a felony in it, it's probably unwise for your children."



FOX News at it again, looking for something to blame/scapegoat.

“Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of man, that state is obsolete.”— Rod Serling, “The Twilight Zone” The Obsolete Man

Kudos to Adam, I've said it tons of times. If we want to point fingers, parents are the ones we should point fingers at. He didn't say it directly, but got his point across.

To give Fox credit, this is a pretty fair interview... The guy doing the interview never attacked Adam or games directly... All he did was just ask him his opinions on the subject, and Adam gave them. It's dumb that they even had to talk about this in the first place, but at least it was done fairly well.

Be wary, the suck is coming.

Pretty funny that people in the world have 1 day to 30 yrs of gaming history and have not yet kill anyone. They should have not talk about but if people are easily corrupt in environments like gaming violence or media showing violence-related news. Wrong questions were asked so wrong answers were given.

how about, instead of blaming video games, we blame the guy who done it?

"Games are not made for children."

That came off sounding incredibly arrogant to me. What alternate reality does Adam live in where only 'M' rated games exist? There are plentiful games for all kinds of different age groups to enjoy and experience.

Never cared for Sessler or his opinions. Just a loudmouth that likes to hear himself talk.

I always thought Sessler was an idiot too. I guess the only reason he only sees M rated games is because he hates any game without sex and gore.

this is one of those topics that send me over the edge. just like censorship. its not up to the game companies to babysit your children or teach them right or wrong. i put full blame on the parents for simply not being good parents. there are, like he said, rating labels on games, movies, ect. if they want them child to play these game that are meant for a mature audience then its up to the parent to sit their kid down and say "hey dont do this" not the companies. companies are getting censored all the time because parents are too lazy to raise their kids properly and want a scapegoat for their bad parenting.

these types of things piss me off so bad that i cant get my thoughts straight.

Can not agree with you more, the problem theres so many people that don't understand videogames so it's easy to point the finger at what ever seems logical.

Obviously gamers are going to defend why it's not turning them into a serial killer but they have thousands of valid reasons why the media has practically nothing. A while ago two people tried accusing Mass effect of having full nude sex scenes and having your character treated as things, not people. However neither of them had actually played the game and based it off what they heard off others.

While he is a loudmouth, he can articulate a point when he wants. Not just in this instance either.
