ive been observant of the statements you've made regarding your opinion of the industry's sense of responsibility Tim and im thankful that theyve done as much as theyve done... i respect that the producers, manufacturers, distributors cannot control the end users actions or interpretations, that it is the individuals responsibility to educate themself on the many factors associated with this simple prospect of gaming... i wonder how many do however, and it leaves me feeling like the main responsibility is with the parents and educators to make certain that the children understand all things to be considered, and i will always hope the children are given thorough instruction on the difference between gaming and real life...
im appreciative that Sony had foresight in exposing a very serious political dilemma in Nepal and i will be hopeful that children view war not as a game, but a very serious matter, as im sure was Sonys' intent...
as far as gamers, or your own personal feelings about Jack Thompson, i wonder if there is a middle ground? you each seem concerned about the childrens welfare and i agree, (as if you hadnt guessed) the children matter very much
