It isn't Take Two's fault that Best Buy sold a Mature game to a minor. As long as Take Two isn't selling to minors on their website, they are in the clear.


Also, speaking of Bioshock, reading that name reminds me I never bought the game yet, hehe.

GTA IV should be good, but i too think manhunt 2 will just be mindless violence, thats the kinda game that needs an AO rating.

Its best buy's fault because their employees don't care because they arent making big bucks to care just like most stores, the employees just dont care unless they make commission(SP?)

This guy is a grade A tool.

His example proves nothing, if he wanted to prove something maybe doing it 100 different times at several stores would prove something but that shit is just retarded.

what an ass cock grr.gif

Best Buy employees don't work on commission.


I know, I was stating the fact if they were, they would care more, because then they are forced on customer service.

A) It's no surprise.

Millions of copies of games are sold every year to underage kids. It's because the stores don't always check id, even if they say they always do.


cool.gif It's not Take 2's fault.

All Take 2 is really responsible for (and not even 100% responsible for) is making sure the rating is on the packaging. Some of this is also MS's responsibility, though, as well.


C) Responsible parents take other measures.

As someone already pointed out, responsible parents will have already locked their child's console from playing games with a certain rating.


D) Get a life.

Need I say more? Nope...

This guy is such a tool.  There are movies and things of that nature that are a lot more violent than video games (Saw anyone?) but he never mentions that.  I think this jackoff is just looking for attention.

Oh! Oh! Look at me!!! My kid bought a M rated game and he's only 15!!! Now lets shut down the entire gaming industry because a Best Buy employee that probably doesn't know what a video game is just sold one to an underage kid!!!111!11!omgwtfbbq!!11!11

what if his son wouldve went in and bought Scarface or the Godfather?

Should these movies never have been made?

millions of fans of both movies would likely disagree.

both of these movies recieved dozens of awards!


and isnt that what GTA3 was...scarface and the godfather all rolled into the 80's. lol

A game that many of these assholes said shouldve never been made.

I guess the Mona Lisa never shouldve been painted either... cause she has a sexually explicit look in her eye.


fucking idiots!

I am a police officer have been for years I have three children, The problem in the world today is that parents do not raise there kids they want someone else to do it, whether its a tv a baby sitter or school, There are 10-12 year old kids in town as I write this at 11:00 pm riding there damn bikes around, The problem is parents dont raise there kids, How the hell does a 15 year old get to best buy, where does his money come from to get the game, If he has a game system the parents should understand what the game system is, how to set parental controls, just like they do fo porn channels or pay per view Its no different, Thompson, Go FYself jesus christ,. I am 32 years old I play games I dont care for cutsie titles I want to kick back drink a beer cuss, blow off a head chainsaw a monster , why because I am a GD american and thats my right, Do i let me kids (NO) do I set my mic volume so my kids can here what others say (no) And why do I not let my kids play (some) mature rated games , well hell I dont know maybe because I raise my kids and pay attention to them and dont hope someone else will,

Hell I just came from a call for a out of control kid, I get there its a damn 6 year old,. The parents want me to tell the kid I will take him to jail If he doesnt listeen to them, I tell the parents (your both idiots) Its people like you that makes children afraid of the police and how the hell does a 6 year old get to the point of them not being able to control them, I bet its because he played a mature rated game, And I bet its not from video games.

I actually have 10 xbox 360's I have purchased with confiscated drug money and plan on having weekly or monthly tournements and giving them away. And youknow what I may even give a game to the winner also. Hopefully this doesnt make the kid go out and kill someone.

GET A LIFE THOMPSAON AND ALL OF YOU VIDEO GAME MEDIA IDIOTS muhaha.gif


SORRY FOR THE SUPER LONG RANT.
