Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/video games training killers?

Very few people here on this forum have an objective opinion where their own choice of game genre is concerned. It's a hard thing to have, especially as it involves self-denial, unless that is, you can live with being an utter hypocrite. Everybody that likes sicko games here says they're okay. I would never even consider these trashy games that exploit the sleazy, selfish aspects of human nature. I would probably like GTA from a purely selfish point of view but in principle I cannot be for maintaining decent standards for everybody else and then go excusing myself like some repulsive politician.

I look at it like this. If I were about to land on some new and populated planet and parked my flying saucer in the outer atmosphere for a quick scan of the place, and then I saw the same obsession with all things vile being passed off as 'entertainment' I'd hit reverse and cordon the whole solar system off.

It's like there is a frightening mental illness spreading through the human race.
