They are more real than any video game.

Like i said, the FCC just has issues, serious serious mental issues.

Actually I did on an earlier post. They make an excepion because the movie industry actually makes a attempt to enforce their regulations. If you don't believe me, think about the last time you saw someone get ID'd for an R rated movie... then think about the last time you saw someone get carded at EB Games or Blockbuster for renting or buying a mature game.

I've NEVER seen anyone get carded for a game... EVER... and I know my EB Games guys by NAME.

This is the reason why the FCC would come down harder on the gaming industry, that and the fact that Congressmen like movies and tend not to play videogames

i've never seen either.



and i know what your saying about the better graphics. but i dont believe that makes ANY difference.

What goes on in peoples minds, how they're seeing what they're doing when they're playing a game is EXACTLY the same as this and in doom.
people play doom and imagine a picture like that, while they're ripping thro a monster with a chainsaw. dont say they dont think of it, because they do. your imagination has no graphics. so it doesnt matter if it was 10 years ago on doom or now on RE, the voilence is exactly the same. And the FCC isnt going to change that.


Now when you see a game that you hunt down and rape girls and kill them afterwards. THEN you'd have something that they'd get involved in and stop.

but the voilence in this game is the same as it was at the beginning of games. nothing will happen just cuz of the better graphics.

I have to disagree with you on the violence as I do believe the detail makes all the difference (especially when it comes to sensory perception), but I respect your opinion and you supported it quite well.

And you've never seen someone carded for a movie? I'm 27 and I see it CONSTANTLY around the Philadelphia area.

I dont know about EB, but at Blockbuster they wouldnt rent Dylflon and me a game because we are 17, even though the game said 17+, yet she rented us Cabin fever ( i think it was) a few weeks before, which would also recieve an "M" rating if it was a game.
