The Get-Well Gamers Foundation is going to supply Mrs. Shea with all the M-rated games that get donated to us. If the kids can't use them, at least they'll do some good for our servicemen and women.
Actually, if you guys have old games and systems, The Get-Well Gamers Foundation will take them. With the volume of stuff the Child's Play crew gets in, they can't take the time to disinfect each individual console, controller, and cartridge, but it's a burden we're happy to bear over here at the Foundation!
Lorben is corect, the "Age appropriate" thing is really a bit of a misnomer. The trick is that the Pediatric clinics that do what he described earlier are a minority of our hospitals, so oftentimes surplus M-rated games will be sold or traded in to buy T and E games, or other necessities like replacement A/V cables or controllers.
So go ahead and donate all the GTA's you want- just so long as you're comfortable with the prospect that some of them might not actually wind up in the hospitals.
And Pip, MS and Sony have both ponied up substantial donations that have been incredibly helpful in the Foundation's mission- now if only Nintendo would stop stonewalling us...
Still avoiding any real information, Jack? Typical.
Hey, remember your "Billet-proof" bill in LA? How'd that work for you? Or what about the seven other bills that failed to pass constitutional muster?
Face it, Jack, you're trying to go on a witch hunt, but no one is superstitious anymore.
By the way, I'm still waiting to hear what was so libelous and false about the Kennesaw State University editorial, but of course you're too much of a coward to defend yourself. No, you just go off and attack somebody else.
This is what made you so pathetic on GamePolitics, you know. You would never respond to any real criticisms and arguments, because you didn't have the capability. All you could do was resort to childish name-calling.
