i dunno, first one looks like it could be going in a higher pocket than the second one, and maybe one or two of the others could be going in his belt.

idk how i feel about the game in general but i'd definitely play it out of morbid fascination.

I have tons of perfectly well-adjusted friends who love to play GTA and other "ultra-violent" games, but I doubt if any of the them will want to play this particular title.

A game like GTA V provides entertainment through varied and engaging means in a rich, well-developed environment. Same goes for FPS games like CS:GO. They're violent, sure, but the violence just a significant part in a complex entertainment mechanism. On the other hand, this game seeks to entertain only through pure, unadulterated violence---plot, character development, or strategy be damned. The game limits itself to a one-dimensional focus that places violence, the scourge of human progress, on a pedestal.

I can't possibly fathom how any good might come out of this. What an utter piece of shit.

Or maybe we're all just getting massively trolled by the developers.

Fucking Ebola ruining everything.

What? I think people who play it will get bored pretty fast or only play short sessions but video game violence is entertaining to a lot of people. Nothing wrong with it soccer moms of america and no, I'm not planning on a mass shooting anytime soon. I think the holes in the character make him pretty hilarious, listen to the start again, he's so over the top. Agree on the unbalanced 1 sided jacket loadout in the trailer due to his unwillingness to lay down his gun for 3 seconds for fear of looking less badass. The screams when they die and the cop calling for backup against 1 guy inside a police station make me laugh . Maybe that's just my dark sense of humour though

rated E for everyone

But in all seriousness, isn't this the same shit as say, grand theft auto?
just taken to a higher level?


it's not that much different than those saw movies so many of you enjoy

Intense. I'd play it. Don't agree with the knife through a skull, that would definitely dull the blade and you couldn't destroy as many 11 year olds after without it getting grisly.

All in all, looks like a game the whole family can play.

This is terrible lol

says alot about the average gamer huh.

awful but i suppose some people still will find it fun
still im all against the state regulating what we can or can not play

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

Distasteful, hope it gets banned.

would make it super valuable on ebay

welp theres a limit to ere thang, including free speech. Dont believe me? Make a blog saying the president sucks and he needs to be assassinated then lets see where that goes. Mature or not blah blah blah im sure a 12 year old can buy one off craigstlist or get someone to buy it for them etc. I'm not familiar with gta games but I think cops deserve a little bit more respect than what is portrayed in some of these games.

yeah but they are fictional. for instance you would never be up in arms about the portrayal of protoss in blizzard games because protoss are fictional. well you might say there's no real life analogue for protoss since they're aliens, but GTA cops are an invention too, the cities in GTA aren't real, they aren't real police departments. i mean i guess the characters are human, but so are the people in skyrim right? i never played that game but of course it wouldn't make sense to say it disrespects, say, people who go to renaissance fairs. is there something special about police? because what about the army, do the games in the call of duty series (how many are there 6? didn't play those either), do those games disrespect the army?

i don't think some kids playing a video game that an organization controlled by the video game industry rated as adult only is a big deal, did you watch porn before you were 18, did you watch R movies (which by the way ESRB game ratings are more stringent than movie ratings), or is there some unproven secret quality of games because they are interactive that it's somehow worse than other stuff like porn

i notice this stuff happens with feminists also, they can get upset about the portrayal of female characters in video games, although they're only fictional characters so they don't need anybody looking out for their rights. if respect is an issue i would focus first on the police's respect for the citizens they serve, and i would focus last if ever on what kind of art people are making

What does respecting cops have to do with their portrayal in games (most cops in my experience don't deserve respect anyways- see a couple threads down the civil forfeitures). You really think entertainment needs to be highly concerned with having respectful subject matter and character representations?

This game will sell some copies but won't do great is my guess. Do any of you remember the game ROCKSTAR came out with after GTA that was supposed to be even more hardcore. All you did in this game was go rampaging and point earning by massacring crowds in a mall? I think my friends and I had fun with it for about 15 minutes, played it maybe twice, then popped GTA back in. Seems like this hatred game is a clone except just a little darker with the whole school shooting / trenchcoated loser vibe.
