I rather see teenagers play that than the umpteenth slaughter and assassination game. People who play Rockstar generally don't fire real assault guns on a school campus!

That would be my son & his friends. It's amazing watching them pick off people with such skill in sharp shooting mode. Kind of scary actually.

I'm not saying computer killer games have any negative effect on a normal kid (except spending perhaps too much time in front of a screen!). Millions of kids do it and don't start shooting real people. But those people that wake up one day and all of the sudden "don't like Mondays" seem to take some inspiration from them.

I think if someone is going to snap many things can be the trigger.

Especially listening to Bob Geldof!

I am too old for the target.  Although if they included a "Sweet Apple Trax / Let It Be" game where they would bicker and get angry unless they played Shake Rattle And Roll or Be Bop A Lula over 40 hours, then I would get it.

Ha ha, I totally buy that! I remember being fascinated the first time I heard those bootlegs. I loved hearing them be so human...

Or fusion. Even a low dose of fusion could send me over the edge.  ;)
