Bah, it's onion news stuff.

Still, I lol at how many frightened parents and one lawyer would react to this. God, I remember there was this really stupid lawyer that said that video games influence children to commit acts of violence.....someone refresh my memory.

Jack Thompson? o.o

[Romantic Fool]

Yeah! That guy.

God I wonder what kind of BS he would start if he heard of this game.

Drama, Drama, Drama

Anyways, knowing onion, it's probably making fun of how some violent games have some fanboys that defend it by saying that it's awesome in teh storyline not the gameplay, when it's obvious that it's the violent gameplay they're after.

Just my interpretation.

Anyone else? I actually enjoy what satire makes fun of.

You fail epically hard for not following on the joke. It's The Goddamn Frickin' Onion, OF COURSE it's fake news. There are just some people either stupid enough or without a sufficiently developed funnybone that they have to scowl at the fact that it's The Onion making the report and thus are completely incapable of following on the joke.


And I think you just proved my case.

I'm sorry?

I already realized that it was fake news, and I did think it was funny. Just not that funny. So being that the majority of Onion News stuff just happens to be satire making fun of something, I just wanted to make an assumption of what it was making fun of this time. I haven't scowled at the fact that it's The Onion making the report. Rather I was more interested in why they made this report.

Typical Jack Thompson meta-baiting.
