Er, you're a complete hypocrite if you've ever played GTA3 without the same distaste.

There is NO way whoever's in charge actually think that guy looks good enough for release... there's no way in the world. Wait, nevermind. Yes there is, he could be on drugs.

They've got the signs in stores right in front of the video games case. If they can't find that out, or not even care what their kids are playing, because they dont buy them, then its still not the video games that are 'bad.' It's the kids/parents. Disregaurd to parental values is way worse than playing a game where you shoot animals.

Without reading the other posts (if this has been said before): How can you find a game like this completely tasteless but killing humans is ok in other games?

The concept of a poacher game just seems very satirical and humerous to me.

In other news, a building in Baltimore believed to be that of Exilworks Inc. was bombed repeatedly by humans with bombs on their chests and hopped up on heroine and LSD. Although unconfirmed, it is believed these flailing, raving maniacs were members of PETA.

I just love that they are proud to claim that they use digital sound. Unlike most of the games on the market today where I've had to play the included cassete tape to get sound. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/rolleyes.gif]

Thrawn42689: I've got to admit: no, I didn't read through any of your posts, and I apologize for that. You did go over your reasons, though I'm still confused as to why you think this game would have more of an influence on young gamers than GTA would.

Is it the fact that hurting a human is on such a grander scale of punishment and conscience than hurting an animal? If so, I can see your point of view now, definitely. (And again, sorry for just posting blatantly without reading)

Well, it seems to be a stupid simulation. All the fun of being a poacher...

Does it involve running into electrical fences?

Ever been to a movie where hundreds of people sit there in entertained silence while on screen a whole swathe of people get cut down in gruesome gunfire, yet when one puppy or other cute animals cops an off-screen bullet to somewhere fatal the entire audience lets out a similtaneous 'Awwwwwwwwwwwwww'?

I was sad when they killed all those Mûmakil in rotk, those were some /beautiful/ animals.. and i must admit i got entirely too much amusement from their rampaging and stepping on things, i think i was /supposed/ to be rooting for Rohan though..
