Just to offer an alternative, violence doesn't bother me in the least and
never has. i was playing mortal combat, moonstone, street fighter 2 and
various other so called violent games at the age of 8 or so, ---- in fact
the first mk game came out when i was 8 years old.
Admittedly, graphically, even mortal combat was almost more commic book
style than say grand theft auto, and the violence was mainly done in such a
way as to not be taken seriously.
I think if i had children, I'd base their playing of violent games upon the
game. Shooting aliens or gangsters, heck even fighting enemies with a sword,
fine, ---- but running around the streets willfully committing crimes and
beating up police and inocent bystanders, probably not.
On the other hand, s/x bothers me a lot, but for personal, rather than moral
reasons which I will not discuss (this is why Cx2 has written all the
audiogames.net content for jims' games sinse i haven't played them myself).
I think I'd base a childs' playing of such games on knolidge and maturity,
but obviously these are hugely individualistic factors.
Just my thoughts, and just offering an alternative view.
Beware the grue!

Hi,
Speaking of adult games, in my opinion, violence is way worse than sex. I
know that is not the popular opinion but being a long time peace loving
hippie it is my opinion. So to me games where you are bashing and or
killing monsters, animals or humans would be worse for kids to be playing
than games with a bit of sexual content in them.
