What the public fails to realize is that video games are big stress relievers for a lot of folk, myself included. BBC has no right to stick their nose in bloody business that's theirs.

You know, I could continue to rant on this but I'm going to cut my reply short. Realism is good, yes, but to an extent. There is a big line between reality and the virtual world and for example, I cannot remember a video game shooter where I'm gunning civilians. Last I checked, I'm out and about hunting bad guys whether they're the Covenant from the 'Halo' series or terrorists bad guys in 'Modern Warfare'.

I dunno, it just frustrates me that people keep poking s**t when there is obviously nothing wrong with it. They can go ahead and give an opinion but at the end of the day, people like me couldn't GAF.
The BBC were quoting The Red Cross in an interview with The Guardian - these were not the opinions of the BBC. How dare any news organisation report something that people don't want to hear. Tsk, tsk

But from a serious perspective this article refers to realistic conflict and it makes absolute sense that people, especially young impressionable people are made to realise that actions in the real world have consequences. Seriously, including this sort of responsible realism isn't going to spoil anyone's fun.
