"well, i have a REAL punching bag, which also builds muscles, so I THINK that beats video games any day. :)" Well, good for you. Does the punching bag bleed? Does it shoot back at you? Does it even say anything back to you?

Oh yes, I agree. First off, we need to elect better representatives, but that's a completely separate issue. These old men who are writing are laws do not necessarily have to follow the will of those that they govern. They may be too lax or too strict when it comes to matters such as game ratings. Their personal beliefs certainly come into play there.

U really shouldnt put it like that aggiesgirl, some kids all they cna do is play video games. I'm not saying their handicapped and thats why, but because of soceity(note, I'm not infering I'm one of these kids). They get bullied so much, only becasue of the way they look or talk no one gets to know their personality. So the only way they cna be happy is whne their invisible, they cant go out anywhere because nobody likes them and every1 makes fun of them

You know, Im 15. I play Halo3, Assassins creed, and all the 'bad' games on this list. I dont kill people, hell I dont even hurt people. I take all of my anger out on videogames. If I didnt, I probably would be killing people, or maybe even myself. But I dont, because I have good ol assassins creed as a punching bag.
