    Re: Headline :: It's not just Jack Thompson who's upset with GTA IV

    Oh man, Nick, you got me wanting to watch Jurrasic Park now!!

    Anyway, onto the point you made about running peds down, I think it just makes the game more realistic that it gives you the option to. However, when I'm playing GTA seriously, I actually drive as best I can (under the circumstances) and actually get quite upset at myself if I lose control, go off road and run people over.

    Obviously, I would never drive in real life like I would do in GTA because I know it's just a game and I wouldn't actually be taking anyone's life away from them by running over a couple of pixels that resemble a person. But obviously, to these people who try and ban these games, obviously I am a mass murderer intent on running people doen every time I get into a car...

    :edit: Erm, by the way, why can't I thank Nick? I wanna give him credit for his awesome post!

    To add another thing:

    Peter Vallone is furious that New York has been portrayed in this way, "Setting Grand Theft Auto in the safest big city in America would be like setting Halo in Disneyland," he stated.
    Isn't that just a tiny bit of a stupid thing to say considering what happened there (New York) some years back?

    If you consider walking out of a nightclub and getting shot 50 times for no discernable reason safe, then yes NY must be the safest city in the US of A.
