The sexual predators! They're coming from inside the Xbox!

Yeah, that's my local affiliate. Lucky me.

Mine had it, and I played it, and it was goooooodddd......

Ten minute run-through with the Wii interface

Sounds like the kids at Wii Fanboy have sand in their vagina. They keep on ragging on IGN because they don't get the same perks. Jealousy. Envy.

And by the way, IGN got the debug kit from an external developer because Nintendo wouldn't give them one yet.

Anything, I'm just sick of playing games and watching DVDs on a 13" TV/VCR combo. I suppose digital cable would be the best.

Tingle RPG gets "gay"

Sep 9th 2006 5:27AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Though such lifestyles conflict with my beliefs, I am in no place to judge others that don't believe as I do. I show love and kindness to all, no matter which team they play on.

But for crying out loud, why does this game have to make it so in-your-face! Tingle is one thing. Yes, he is a stereotypical homosexual fairy-boy, but can't the rest of the game just play like a normal Zelda adventure? Do they have to force such material at you in large amounts?

And this is not just because of the extreme homosexual overtones, but flooding any game with one character-type seems unsuitable for the average gamer. This is one case where there needs to be diversity by adding some STRAIGHT characters. I don't know if the whole game will end up this way, but when a character as insignificant as a bridge builder exhibits such actions, it's all but certain.

I just wouldn't feel comfortable playing such a game, but that's just me. Anyhoo, peace.

The Political Game: A brief history of video game legislation

Aug 18th 2006 3:34PM (Joystiq)
I still don't understand why we don't restrict the sale of M-rated games to minors. Call me old fashion, but these kids have no business playing M-rated games anyway. If a parent thinks that their child SHOULD play Manhunt or State of Emergency, they can go buy the game themself. I really don't see how we're benefiting society by letting 11 year-olds play GTA. They are not mature enough to handle the violence, sex, and language in many M-rated games.

By the way, I'm 18 and I love GTA.

Rumor: Hillary Clinton preps for video game tax

Jul 24th 2006 3:40PM (Joystiq)
What I find unfair about this is the people that make these laws are politicians that are clueless about games, parents that hate their kids playing games, and mindless citizens that hear GTA is bad (from the news) and make an opinion on that. I'm 18 now and I can vote, but we are still vastly out-numbered by eligible voters that don't know enough or aren't too fond of games.

It really pisses me off when topics that matter to me get completely ignored. Our government finds it more useful to spend time on taxing video games, tearing down the 10 Commandments, and go chasing down people that download music off the internet. OBVIOUSLY such things are much important than basic human rights. We could debate killing babies in the form of abortion, but the MPAA needs to get their money for all those illegally downloaded copies of "The Matrix" first. Someone can't get their priorities straight.

There's another election coming up in a year and a half. Now I don't know how much President Bush has to do with our gaming hardships, but 2008 is a clean slate. We must choose then, and make sure you examine all the issues. You'll probably find that this particular issue goes much deeper, and opens up a door too all sorts of taxation issues that you have an opinion on.

If none of that made sense, the first paragraph was a comment, the second was a rant, and the third was advice.
