The fact that they made these statements with no reliable statistical information is appalling.

It's Fox News. Pretty much all of their statements are made with no reliable statistical information backing them off.

See what happened with Mass Effect.

Fox News in a nutshell: "VIDYA GAMES CAUSE RAPE, MURDER AND TERRORISM! BAN THE GAMES NOW!"

Their idiots, plain and simple.

Good on EA for firing back at them.

Its a wonder they hadn't jumped on Bulletstorm before, it must look like some pretty demonic shit to Fox News lol.

Learn to take a joke Fox, seriously.

Well...some things they said can be understood. BUT, and this can't be stressed enough, KIDS SHOULDN'T BE SEEING THAT STUFF to begin with! Sheesh . . . one thing that gets me is when parents aren't parents

Anywho, it seems the comment was that the sexual scenes that are played in video games can lead someone to rape and all that stuff. I can see what they're saying though, it's all about desensitization (not just in games but anything really). Not everyone who sees or plays those things will be led to rape someone of course no more than not everyone who drinks will become a drunk. But, every drunk, drinks....get what I mean?

But yeah, to make a wide claim and blame video games and all that stuff is honestly skirting around the real issues behind the problems. But hey that's what most people do: go against things they don't fully understand.

I thought about getting Bulletstorm . . . but I actually got bored with it and didn't get it. Doesn't help that I'm not much of a shooter fan.

I really don't like this article. The spacing in it is misleading. It quotes Tammy Schachter for most of it but then the last paragraph is the authors opinion. If you don't look closely, you might miss the ending quotation mark and think that Tammy is the one that said what Fox did was absurd when she didn't.
