I've played several; Halo, GTA, MK, Resident Evil, Ninja Gaiden...also can't forget games like Doom.

I love Doom 😄

😱 Thats agood list. I never played Mk or Gta and was wondering if they are good because i want to buy it..are those two good ? Doom the movie is coming out as well 💃 and I got Ninja Gaiden black which is a very hard game and those spider ninjas are sick. 🙁

The Doom movie's out already, from what I've heard from people who've seen it it's not too good 😬

I've played MK for years, I love those games (though Tekken's my favorite fighting series). The GTA series is fun if you want to waste time or are stressed and need to vent anger or something.

Not for the kiddies, though.

It sucked 🙁 I hate when they ruin a good thing. I was thinking of getting gta for the psp since it got a good rating. I think you should play God of war.

some articles on gta thing and the last one is on mortal kombat when it firstcame out.

Edit I took offthe Mortal Kombat one because it didn't work.

March 29, 2005 - Hilary Rodham Clinton, D, NY, has taken sides. Apparently, the wrong one. In an article with the Sunday Times, the first-time senator and two-term first lady, said she wants to launch a $90 million investigation into the effects of videogames on children.

Her efforts mirror long-time Senator Joseph Lieberman D, Ct, though this time she has sided with right wing Republicans Sam Brownback and Rick Santorum.

She cites Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto as as a "major threat" to morality in America.

"Children are playing a game that encourages them to have sex with prostitutes and then murder them," Clinton said in a statement. "This is a silent epidemic of media desensitisation that teaches kids it's OK to diss people because they are a woman, they're a different colour or they're from a different place."

Apparenly Clinton is new to the subect of violence in videogames, which first erupted over the finshing moves in Mortal Kombat. Having sex with a prostitute and then running said woman over in GTA is not a goal or mission in the game, leaving that option open to the morality and choice of the gamer. Furthermore, GTA3, which kick-started this new wave of complaints against violence in videogames, came out in 2001, almost four years ago. Clinton's statement appears to be the first part of her bid for the democratic presidential election in 2008.

Clinton's proposed $90 million investigation will study the impact of games and other electronic media on the "cognitive, social, emotional and physical development" of children, reports the Sunday Times.

We'll have more on Clinton's pre-presidential campaign ideas in the near future.

"$90 million investigation " what a WASTE of Money! I can not believe she is going to spend near a billion dollars on something like this! If she want to see the affect it has on people ask the "kids" that play them. It is just stupid that she is generalizing games like that, she is being a hypocrite if you ask me.

But shes running for election so she might as well. She does not like sex in games because kids play it. Dumb ***** ignores the rated M

Well she is trying to get elected but what a pointless thing to run in a campane.

Actually, that's about a tenth of a billion.

Still, that's a lot of money wasted.

😱 I just read in one of my game books that playboy took over the videogames. They are taking the video game woman in games and putting them in playboy naked in issues. 😱

Ok what the hell is the point of this, and it makes me wonder what the girls in the game are accually made for. This shocks me to some extent..what do YOU all think about this..... ?

Omg I just read that they said they are doing thi sbecause they are targetting men the age 29ish do to a study that the most men that play games and by playboy is like 25-35. They straight up said that since putting naked video game characters in playboy will attract all the gamers......

so what are they trying to say.......that gamers are horney men.....I am insulted.

I think it is funny actually. I saw a playboy video game for x-box a while back. I did not even pick it up but I wounder what the point in that game would be.

I hear it's sims with sex....thats all. But I mean playboy takes famous video game charaters and strip them naked to put in accual playbot magazines.

how many starving children could she feed with $90 million dollars damn, people need to get their priorities straight.

Why are people flipping out about violence and sex in games when it is just as bad in TV and movies?

Because she think that games are for little kids 😄 and idn't even care it was rated M which is 17 anway and kids can not get this.

Because it sounds good on a campaign poster.

And it'll be a good way to get votes from parents, and people who're concerned about morals and stuff like that.

Yeah thats all and good but why are the parents so dumb into thinking it's not there fault since they have to buy it for the kids because it's 17 and older anway, just like movies rated r are 18 and up.
