You could argue that Lord of the Rings was ok as 12 because it was set in a fantasy world and so was easier for a child to disassociate from the violence. The youth of today are all more exposed to violence in media anyway.
I think you could say "games don't kill people, people kill people". For sure these games are in bad taste but they don't encourage the normal human being to commit a violent crime, no matter how realistic it is. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that the more realistic violent games get the less people will want to play them.
