Good lord (warning: stupidity that burns)

I dare the artist to play Chrono Trigger and dismiss it as just something from the video game industry.



Okay, they're not exactly the type of games he seems to be targetting but this man is a moron nonetheless.

Such skill with the pencil, with so few brain cells. It's a tragic waste. I gather he's gotta be autistic.

To say he's autistic would be to excuse the stupidity shown.

Let's all just say he's a complete moron.

The unfortunate fact of the matter is that the trend in society is to pass the buck until it comes to someone or something impersonal. An entire industry fits the bill to shift the blame from worthless kids and moronic parents. Jesus... the industry submitted itself to self-regulation via the ESRB ratings. Just like movies, its just the responsibility of the parents to decide what their parents can and cannot handle.

[Ghost Rider]

Yep..kids are turned into monsters by Video Games, Movies, Porn, Comics....everything except a fucked up household.

Man's a moron.

And honestly Shinova...he could play CT, or any other decent game and it wouldn't matter a hill of beans. If some prosecuting moron in Texas can tell me with a straight face that Watchmen is made for kids, then this guy will tell you CT perverts children's mind.

The Video Game Industry is creatging little monsters! Which is why you need to whine to your local congressman about how this country needs a nanny state to prevent kids (or hey, we might even deny them to everyone!) from getting them! Responsible parenting? What's that?

[DPDarkPrimus]

Seems that people have been reading Penny Arcade...

and yeah, I agree. Totally disgusting.

What political crap is this...?

<RANT>I'm moving to Canada before this country rips itself into bloody tatters due to FUCKING CHILDREN BEING TOTALLY AND IRREVERSIBLY OUT OF CONTROL DIRECTLY BECAUSE OF NO FUCKING PARENTING AT ALL BECAUSE THE WHOLE FUCKING CONCEPT OF 'FAMILY' GOT CHUCKED OUT THE WINDOW WHEN THE FIRST PERSON LOCKED AWAY THEIR ELDERLY PARENTS AT THE KONZENTRAZIONSCHLAGERS KNOWN AS NURSING HOMES!!</RANT>

People need to respect their elders and fucking let them teach the kids how things are done right!!! Don't take them to a nursing home!

EDIT: I guess you can tell that stupid and wrong-headed cartoon totally pissed me off...

EDIT2: And fuck you too, typo!

(Tosses a bucket of cold water on Einhander)

Alrighty then.

Yes, it's a fucked up cartoon. So are Jack Chick's. The best defense is still education...the cartoonist is off his chair, of course. The video game industry doesn't express its right to fuck up kids, it expresses its right to make a product available to the public.

That said...If you're a parent and you're shoving your kids in front of GTA 3, I figure you might as well hand them a CD of hardcore porn and gory horror movies, because you've deemed the kid mature enough to handle extreme fantasy (and while you're at it, turn them loose in the adult fiction section of the library).

I like the idea that games be handled like movies and porn: Purchasing restriction access based on age, with actual use solely at the parent's own discretion.
