A video game that even I admit is a bit overboard. Hatred.

I understand what this guy is trying to do...I honestly do. And there's a large part of me that says "more power to you". This is a big middle finger to the people who are trying to ban violent video games to protect the children because in general the people trying to ban video games are the people who don't parent their children anyways. It's easier to set little Timmy in front of the TV with a controller in his hand than to engage with him and, you know, actually parent. So these people start feeling guilty about it and the way they want to resolve the issue is to ban a video game they wouldn't want their 10 year old to get their hands on.

Bottom line is this game isn't made for 10 year old Timmy. Anyone with a brain cell left in their head knows that. Is this game over the line? Abso-freaking-lutely. Does that mean that this guy shouldn't be allowed to release this game? No way in hell. Adults should make their own choices on what they buy/eat/play/watch/read.

*yawn*

1998 called, it wants its moral panic over a video game where the protagonist "goes postal" back.

But, I'm sure even you will have to agree that there will be lots of little Timmys who will get there hands on this game and be playing it.

I'm not condoning censorship or banning anything.

I'm just questioning who in their right mind in this society of ours today would even think developing or releasing a game like this was a good idea?

"The developer described Hatred's theme as a reaction to "'politically correct' trends in gaming" and sought to make a game that eschewed politeness, colorfulness, and games as art."

-Wikipedia

Did that game trailer raise your ire?

Congratulations, you were just successfully trolled by the game's developer.

Just looking at it from another perspective.

Someone needs to hack it and make a CCW person in that game and take him out. That'd be pure win.

Just how big is that left hand, inside coat pocket anyway? Does he keep a cornucopia in there? That is a pretty long knife to keep in the front of the waistband. There are significant dangers from that. I only saw two mags, whoops, I mean clips. Are they the "perpetual" ones they use in Hollywood?

i thought the long stringy black hair thing was played out. Is it back in style? I don't think I can pull off that look.

Normally I don't care what's in a game.... But holy fuck. That's brutal.

I guess I'm a dinosaur and the last time I played a game on a home based console it was probably Super Mario Bros. I have no damned idea what this game' real point is. Is the hairy fuck the guy that is the player? So you pretend that you're a blood thirsty psycho and go around just killing unarmed citizens? Is that right? If that's the case then I have to say that the creator of the game is one sick fucking asshole that needs to get the shit choked out of him. I don't get it.

Oh I get your reference!

Honestly.. the game play looks like Diablo II or original. Can't remember.. but since there isn't magic or swords/axes/other pointy things... I mean that's what you did in Diablo, slaughter EVERYTHING. It might be fun to play, I doubt I'll go around blasting innocent people after. no promises though.
