It's just wrong! they don't need to see that! And what about they're parents? if they let them play that, who knows what else they're alowed to see!?

That's a problem with the parents, not the games. Restricting minors from playing M-rated games will not turn good parents bad.

So, are you a bad troll or...?

I belive you mean "bad parents good".

I'm just explaining that it's wrong for minors to see M-rated stuff!
 
No it's not, it's wrong for you to make choices about harmless things that other people are clearly perfectly fine with.

If you hate M games and blood and guns so much just stay far away from M games and TV and movies and everything that's not made of unicorns and sunshine, but don't make other people do the same.
 
I'm not the only one that opposes M-rated games... anyway, i think this just turned into a pointless war about M-rated games...
 
This entire discussion (if you can even call it that, considering how your entire argument seems to be "WELL, IT'S BAD AND THEY SHOULDN'T SEE IT") is centered on the censorship of video games and that's the point of this thread. It's not pointless or off-topic and it's certainly not a flame war.
 
Hey, have anyone of you heard of "Extra Credits"? It's a new show on The Escapist where they talking about gaming, usually about it's status as a medium of entertainment and art. This week it talks about the Supreme Court trial I was telling you guys about!

Oh, and by the way, the day will be November 2.
 
@JuniorTroopa: There is no point from sheilding kids from violence because kids are already learning stuff like violence and sex at a young age that it is already too late to sheild them from it.

Because, clearly, America is the only place that matter.

I agree with this, its not like America is the only country in the world :V
 
I played Doom, Diablo, and Starcraft when I wasn't even in my teens yet (but I played with cheats on) and it didn't even scare me. More like made me laugh.
 
All of my friends are into playing COD and stuff like that.

Sorry I haven't been keeping up to date with this, but the Supreme Court officially met on Tuesday to begin oral arguments on the subject of free speech in video games.

So far, things are looking up, especially when the Judges begin to apply this thing called "logic" to the argument:
