The right has tried to censor video games for years.

I'm old enough to remember Doom being blamed for Columbine.

I always liked to point out how little they played Doom compared to how often they went bowling. It was obviously the bowling that drove them to violence. ^/s^

Hey cousin! Let's go bowling!

Cousin, it is your cousin!

Not gonna lie, as a terrible bowler I to have considered violence (particularly those fucking pins mocking me).

So THAT'S why the movie is called Bowling For Columbine! 😁

This isn't 'Nam, man! Smokey's just a conscientious objector.

The religious right loved DOOM initiaĺly because the whole goal is to kill demons. Of course you had the whole Jack Thompson thing going on, though. What a nightmare.

What will happen first, Sims5 or GTA 6?

[–] 474D 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well Sims 5 got cancelled but somehow I think it's still more likely

If any videogame series on earth could actually be made better by Ai, it's probably The Sims.

Entire families of Ai dipshits lighting themselves on fire and drowning in pools sounds like endless entertainment. Imagine convincing them to fight eachother, gaslighting them, god with a magnifying glass.
