Duty Calls (Parody)

That was amazing. I have a particular hate for the blood-spattered screen in games these days

This plus view-jerk in arcade shooters.

":3tl0bcj5]http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/3280…arody_Promo.php Um, I see this as the pot calling the kettle black. Bulletstorm isn't so different from CoD, it's full of outdated stereotypes and gameplay that's older than Unreal Tournament.

I'd rather have seen this video from Amnesia developer Frictional Games or somebody who's actually doing something different with video games. This marketing ploy is like a bodybuilder calling a football player a "meathead". Look who's talking.

Nailed!

Amazing.

People are still reading Gamasutra.

Hope the game is good, they are talking a lot amount of smack.

Quote

Carol Lieberman, a psychologist and book author, told FoxNews.com that sexual situations and acts in video games -- highlighted so well in Bulletstorm -- have led to real-world sexual violence. “The increase in rapes can be attributed in large part to the playing out of [sexual] scenes in video games,” she said.

...what.

“The increase in rapes can be attributed in large part to the playing out of [sexual] scenes in video games,”

WHAT?!!! I think that's the funniest, most utterly bollocks statement I've ever heard in my entire life... no exaggeration... there hasn't been and still is no evidence to link video-games to real life violence... why oh why do they continue to do this...

Dragon Age should be banned then.

Gays be gone when that happens.

It's fox, what are you getting so excited over.

Lmao! There's also the chance that EA / Epic actually asked Fox to do that article, it is good publicity!

It really is, mass effect sold like mad with the "hot sex".

Quote from D3ads

...what.

I think she has a point to be honest. You have to watch the full report

I think more likely she’s stumbled upon some made-up-facts about titles like Rape Lay and just extrapolated those for viewer outrage and ratings. That controversial Japanese indie game distributed only at a convention in the tens to hundreds 5 years prior until certain Internet journalists tried unsuccessfully to ban it (FOX also ran a story on it, of course).

And, although I’m in no way defending the content, I find it odd that absolutely none of these articles on how sick and depraved it is, and how it relates to Japanese cultures view on women, and how it correlates with real world rape, and etc. mention that at the end of the game they kill you in self-defence.
