Why? It is a valid point. You can't condemn a game like Hatred but say games like GTA are acceptable. They are video games, plain and simple and anybody who would come unhinged by playing it and do the same thing in real life would have done so anyway. If it was not a video game it would be Marilyn Manson. If it was not Manson it would be some show or movie. One could argue this game would actually help prevent a real life situation like the gameplay from occurring because the person could fullfill his urges in the game rather than in real life. Do I believe that? No, because a person who does these kind of things in real life are going to do them regardless of a video game. Is the game in bad taste? Absolutely, but so is every GTA game which preaches crime and murder.
