The problem never was, and never will be video games, or music, or movies, or TV.
The problem is society and parenting.
I know the difference between right and wrong. My parents taught me that. when I play halo, do I want to go do the same thing? You bet, but I go and do it with a paintball gun and some friends. Harmless fun. Parenting is the basis for someone to turn out normal. Why is is that nobody blames the parents?
Did Lee Harvey Oswald play video games? Dahmer? Hitler?

Cowboys eh? I picked up Romo for my fantasy team last year after McNabb got hurt, and he did pretty well for me. Too bad I also had Ownes and he blew ass.
No, Master Cheif isn't in GoW of Lost plant, but they game itself is very very similar. Would Pac-Man be a totally different game if the idea was the same, only you used a green square named pac-dude? Its the same shit. Aliens... Shoot... Dead.
The megaman franchise was pretty damn successful don't you think? I own them all (except that battle network shit). Was it the same game over and over... yeah, pretty much, but its still fun. I agree that Gow, Halo are both fun (never played Lost Planet) but don't give Nintendo shit for making a different game with the same hero just because hes had tons of games. People love Mario, and want games hes in. its a gold mine.
