    Either that or someone will be judged...harshly. And then an inevitable flame war will ensue. Maybe it would be best just to not potentially harm the self esteem of some people.

    Well keep in mind he's only lobbying for the removal and banning of actual violent video games that simulate possible violence. His main "holy trinity" of shut down is Counter Strike, Halo, and Manhunt. He's never even said anything about rpgs or KH. Your X-Men ****ogy isn't really the best fit either. He's simply appealing from a morally absolute and uncompromising point of view which is why his points, although valid at times, can just be plain ridiculous.

    We could also be looking at transitions between both dimensions or possibly an arrangement to give us some form of "2.5D".

    I still play Terranigma on my SNES emulator. But one of my favourites would have to be Final Fantasy 8, since it was the first one I ever played without the help of my brother.

    Well from objective studies playing violent video games do increase aggression more so than any other violent medium currently out there. And follow-ups have found that after playing a violent video game participants in an experiment were more willing to increase the number of faux electrical shocks on another person.

    Yes they are a form of entertainment but like everything else in the world they affect us much more in other ways. The point isn't about the medium it's who is using and how they're are using it. It's like saying knives are responsible for violent crimes. Yes they can be, but they can also be used at the dinner table. it's about understanding the context of things. Parents need to take an active role in their children's lives and not only pay attention to what their kids are playing but also explain to them that it's not real.

    Um, I was referring to learning about other cultures and how easy it is to learn enough of the basics (i.e. religion) so as to not to easily offend anyone.

    The latest interview with Capcom's representative on SF4 didn't say anything about its graphics. Apparently even simply discussing it would've given away the approach Capcom is taking with the game. He did say the trailer was supposed to hold most of the answers in regards to the type of format the game was going to take. other than that nothing was said.


    Here's it's link. Other than that I haven't been able to find anything article-wise. It could just be my resources though.

    Cultural ignorance on the teacher's part is to blame though. If you're planning to move abroad and teach it would not only be professional but just in your general educational interest to learn the basics of a culture. It wouldn't have even required effort: Allah and Muhammad is quite ****ogous to the Christian God and Jesus, or Buddhism and...well the Buddha-- it really ends up becoming general world knowledge that can be acquired with a simple key stroke on Google.

    Blaming the children isn't necessarily the right thing to do either. They've grown up in a culture and lifestyle where the name is common. Since they are also young their grasp of the spirituality of the name in the context of their religion isn't fully mature. In a sense the children really didn't know better-- the basis being that the little boy who decided on the bear's name wanted it named after him as opposed to the prophet. If he was popular with his peers, it's no wonder that a vote would be unanimous.

    hey

    Well we hardly know anything about what we're going to expect along with 358/2 days. At most all we've seen are small clips of the co-op game play and the fact that it involves Roxas' early story. In short, if we knew there'd be an update or thread regarding the matter.

    Depends on how much though first right? It was a good game for mindless action but not something you'd just want to play repeatedly over and over again.

    God of War wins in game play any day of the week. KH II might've stepped up the controls but it still wasn't as fluid as God of War. Story-wise both were interesting as well as graphically appealing. But all things considering Kingdom Hearts did offer you a whole lot more to do. In actuality since both games are from different genres you can't really compare them on an objective level. And since this is a KH site to begin with you don't really need a poll to tell you what game is "better". I equally enjoyed both.

    Whatever it is something up there has a sense of humour. Why else would we have a brain specifically designed with receptors to specifically ornate chemical psychedelics?
