Do games like this make people go do murder?

Do games like this make people go do murder unto other humans? If so yes, why should not be legal?

[DASPRiD]

No.

[techhead]

Nope.
Makes a decent excuse in court, though.

[Survivor]

Yes completely. This game is a murderer trainings machine. I'm terrified of the children that will walk onto the street with a mouse point it at me and click and click and click. Mice are so much worse than guns since they don't need reloading.

[Paradox]

Nope, been reading too much of old crazy peoples rants against newfangled tech.

[Stof]

Yes completely. This game is a murderer trainings machine. I'm terrified of the children that will walk onto the street with a mouse point it at me and click and click and click. Mice are so much worse than guns since they don't need reloading.

I see you've never used a wireless mouse before

No, what I'm more worried about is those kids that will paint themselves in green and go kill humans by spiting on them. THAT would be fearsome!

[Survivor]

That's actually true   I never use wireless devices for the computer because I'm bound to lose them. (and the damn batteries >:E )

[Vector_Matt]

At the risk of making a redundant post, no. Games don't make people go kill people. If there is a very twisted person playing a very twisted game it might happen, otherwise, no.

[vcxzet]

or it will make you murder aliens

[Undeference]

Damnit. I thought if I wanted to be a pro gamer, I had to be a serial killer. So I guess I should sell my arsenal before I kill too many mor.... uh, anyone... before I kill anyone.

[kozak6]

Games like this absolutely make you go murder human beings.

The other day, I snuck up behind this guy, jumped up into the air, and bit his head.  I couldn't control myself.  I would have eaten his brains if they hadn't hit me with the tazer.

[Rippy]

No, this game doesn't cause much real-life violence. I mean, I've jumped a couple guys and stolen their wallets, and yes I stabbed them, but they had it coming.

Now everyone on the street is afraid of hearing the blood-thirsty yell of "Come on!", repeated over and over, the sound of me finding prey.

[|Nex|TrEmMa]

Maybe if it told you where the other players lived.
But when the aliens come to invade Earth, I know I'll be one of the few survivors, and Trem will be completely to thank for that.
Of course the rest of the human race will have fed them s3 because they're noobs.

[PIE]

or it will make you murder aliens

But will it make you bite and swipe humans?

Rippy: Come on! ROFL!



..btw... does anyone else find this person's name to be disturbing?

[benplaut]

It made me go on an ant killing spree...

[Seffylight]

It also imbued me with the inherent ability to charge a super-powered pounce, and launch spiny barbs from my mouth.

[SLAVE|Mietz]

It made me go on an ant killing spree...

i made me a flamethrower out of hairspray and a lighter, its even like napalm, the hairspray sticks to anything.....

[[Kcorp]Noobius]

i was walking back from school one day and as i turned a corner i saw a cat that i could have sworn looked just like a dretch...i almost kicked the poor thing  :-?

true story

[AKAnotu]

OMG YES!!!!!!!! I was walking down the street when i saw secret government  jetpack testing and thought that they wer jettards cuz they only fired at me with pistols when i tried to pounce at them. STUPID NOOBS WERE OWNED KTHNXBAI

[DarkRogue]

nah game doesn't make you commit murder.

The stupid bastards playing the game however are a nice excuse for justifyable homicide.....

Maybe, if you have difficulty differenciating between a fantasy game and reality.

To prove my point, there was a study here in Australia into the topic.  They took a collection of young males in the age groups typical to those that play such games, and told them that, every time they killed someone, the person they killed would be punished in some way.  The results of the study seemingly proved an increase in violent behaviour, HOWEVER, after the study was released, the people who took part in that study released a statement saying that the reason they were "violent" was that the whole setup was terrible, causing frustration ingame.

In my opinion, games such as this do not cause violence.  In these types of games, you shoot someone in the head, their head will explode in a very violent and gorey fashion.  In my opinion (and this will sound really stupid, but bear with me), it is shows like Looney Tunes and Power Rangers, the shows that most boys watch when they're young, that cause violence.  Why?  Because, when you think about these shows, how much senseless violence is there?  In shows like Looney Tunes, people and creatures wield butcher's knives, cannons, bombs etc.  They use them without thought.  What happens to these characters?

Nothing.  Absolute jack sh*t.  They will turn black for a while, then go back to normal when they go to try their next plot.  At least in these games, they show the conceuences.  You shoot someone, they die.  In these shows, which parents encourage their children to watch (at times), the consequences are not shown.

No. It's perfectly healthy.

Yes, human people go unto murder other people, this game causes them. So not be legal game it should, agree me.

[Glunnator]

I don't think it would happen that ppl would start killing/attacking other ppl because of this game. If they would, they're probably mad enough to have done it without ever knowing about trem. And after all, trem's a teamgame isn't it? hummies dont attack other hummies? (unless its a griefer or such, just ignore that detail)

or it will make you murder aliens

now THERE we have a point. A man who used to hunt his food in the good ol' days is proud of his trusty ol' airrifle hanging in the living room. one lucky day, the human race has the first alien encounter, right here on earth! they come swarming down and walking about and what does this old hunter and trem-freak first think of? WHERES ME RIFLE? off he goes, gets 'is rifle and BANG! war! simple no?

I don't know if there is a link: it was on the news, and in a magazine.  I'd be pretty sure there would be a link somewhere, I just don't know where
