What the hell does that have to do with mass shootings?

Dude will counter any discussion with a race point, no matter if it is related or not.

I get it Bruh, not saying it's not a relevant topic, but it doesn't really contribute to what we're discussing.

 

[getback]

and getback thats not quite true when you have sooperhooper saying that they should legalize prostitution as a solution to mass shooters

Yeah I saw him say that but you said "y'all."

 

[hand2handking]

Valve Removes ‘Active Shooter’ Game And Its Developer From Steam

© Variety

Valve has removed controversial game “Active Shooter” and the developer responsible for it from its digital storefront Steam.


“Active Shooter” was a FPS where players could choose to be members of an elite SWAT team or the titular active shooter, according to its Steam description. Depending on what role they picked, players were tasked with either neutralizing the target or hunting and killing civilians in a school setting. A counter in the corner of the screen tallied the number of cops and civilians killed.

The game was scheduled to launch on Steam June 6, but widespread condemnation and anger from lawmakers, activists, and the parents of school shooting victims apparently caused Valve to investigate. In an email to Variety, a Valve spokesman said the person who made the game has a history of abusive behavior and it’s removed both developer Revived Games and publisher Acid from its digital storefront.

“This developer and publisher is, in fact, a person calling himself Ata Berdiyev, who had previously been removed last fall when he was operating as ‘[bc]Interactive’ and ‘Elusive Team,'” Valve said. “Ata is a troll, with a history of customer abuse, publishing copyrighted material, and user review manipulation. His subsequent return under new business names was a fact that came to light as we investigated the controversy around his upcoming title. We are not going to do business with people who act like this towards our customers or Valve.”

Valve added that a broader conversation about Steam’s content policies “is one that we’ll be addressing soon.”

How did this even get past an idea?? Who thought this was a good idea??? I would've quit the second the director walked talkin bout, "Ok so, we're gonna make a game where you can be a school shooter...". You KNOW that developer is doomed.

Interesting where we choose to draw the morality line with the video games. Shooting and killing is ok in grand theft auto but not in a game at a school.

Games like the above are more akin to simulators (thus in first person). Nobody takes GTA seriously, not even the developer, which is why they stick so much absurdities into the game.

Its not even about the content, its the timing.

So what about something like Counter-Strike? I haven't played in near a decade, but you would plant bombs and take hostages and it's an FPS. I suppose tr1ll is right in that it has to do with poor timing.

Never played it, I'm not really into FPS with military or SWAT/cops. Haven't played on since COD 4.

I guess that's the part that's interesting to me. Why sometimes it's taken seriously and sometimes it's not.

GTA went under ***loads of fire when it came out, but it was only old people who had been trying to take down games since Mortal Kombat.

FYP

 

[hand2handking]

It also gives you the option to be the shooter though complete with tallying civilian kills. Certainly a bad look in our current landscape.

yea i was being sarcastic about the other side of the game, not the side that rightfully should be disapproved of

It always perplexes me when people blame video games, porn, mental illness, trench coats, doors, etc.

These things don't exist outside of America???

Some American games are outright banned in Germany. When I live there, there were a couple I couldn't even buy on Steam because their ISP blocked purchasing them. Had to get the physical disk from here in the states.

Others places in the world have rates of violence and rape greater than the United States.

Young males committing random violence is not an exclusively American phenomenon by a long shot.

Didn't know that, thanks for the info.
Since young males committing random violence is not exclusively American, does this apply to shootings as well?
