The only thing to blame is human nature. The shooter probably felt outcast in some way and fliped out. He could have just been crazy I guess. Another example of why everyone should just try to give each other some basic respect.

My sister was strangly hooked on Burnout Revenge for a few weeks.

The video games arn't at fault. The parents really arn't at fault either in my opinion. Parents may play a part in how their kids view the world, but its the kids own experiences that define who they are and choose to be. It seems to me that day to day life isn't kind to many people and that it probably drives some people crazy. Striking out like the Columbine kids did is inevitable. Its going to happen because of the way we treat each other. See the truth and move on.

"How, exactly, would a publisher focusing on a feminine demographic affect "your" games? Do you think they would abandon the "Mountain Dew" boys? That would be ludicrous to assume. *You* don't want an industry where *you* can't find quality games that *you* like. Well, now you know how most female gamers feel.

We're not talking about making games where you learn to vacuum and comb knots out of kittens' hair. We're talking about games that aren't *specifically* geared toward "macho men," quality games that *anyone* can enjoy. The industry is seriously lacking in that department."

A publisher devoted to female games is a good idea too ;D

The Industry lacks quality games that arn't macho? Yeah the gamecube is doing well with its stance on no cool games for core gamers. They almost had Battelfield Modern Combat. I'm excited about Wii but don't know if I can buy one if I can't have most of my fun on that one console. I might as well get another Xbox 360.

The perfect game system would be a Nintendo Wii where they could have games for all gamers... Not just ones that don't already play games. At least they will release Far Cry on Wii, then when it dosen't sale well because everyone has already played that game a million times they can say there is no market for FPS games on the Wii. Then we can get a stream of cheap crappy experiment games. Wow, Nintendogs was great. Maybe in the Wii version my dog can't dart across the road at night and get hit by a car? Some simulation.

I have a more important question... Who cares if women play games or not? Obviously the corporations want to make more money above all else, but why do they want to ruin our games because this group or that group wont play them? Hey, here's a brilliant idea, why don't they make their own damn games??? Lets see a group of women gamers start up a development studio to make women games for women since they don't want to play our games so much. Then they can get the big publishers to release their game and not have to worry about taking funds away from the next matrix game just to make a game FOR PEOPLE THAT DON'T EVEN LIKE PLAYING GAMES TO BEGIN WITH!

I think its mostly old people who would be offended by this ad. When was the last time old people where not offended. I'm American and I could see where someone could get offended, but on the other hand its free speech. I never called a black comic with racist jokes and told him not to do that anymore so whatever. In response to #12 I don't think its appropriate to rag on someone or a group of people (like happens often.) I'd say this is only really a problem if it was a constant trend or it wasn't obvious that it wasn't an ad to join the KKK.

The Wii controller looks like it would be easier to point with.

Also... can you change out that HD later? I would assume so.

I'm not sure that controller can play with the Wii controller on the same playground. The Wii controller seems like a more natural one to point with. Its still a step in the competitive direction though.
