What has the world come to?
 
http://www.columbinegame.com/

Found this on another forum. What's wrong with people these days?

Savage Clone 05.20.2006 08:13 PM

Big deal.
Yawn.

golden child 05.20.2006 08:14 PM

its ironic, they said the kids were highly influenced by games like this.

Q: What has the world come to?

A: Too many people end a sentence with a preposition without a second thought.

*"What has the world come to be?" I think that stuff like that actually becomes grammatically correct after a while, when the MLA gets sick of correcting the same thing over and over. Maybe that's just with spellings, though.

The crappiest thing it's that this game is seems to be based on final fantasy nes games (sh*t):mad:

The most effective way society has of coping is to find humor in tragedy.

Why is it that once a certain amount of time passes, it is considered more acceptable to make light of horrific events? People make jokes about the Oklahoma City bombing quite casually; it seems to have reached the expiration date on its power to evoke sympathy and horror. Has the requisite time period simply not passed yet for Columbine?

Human beings possess the deadly combination of taking things far too seriously, and being utter hypocrites.

I don't see how the game could be fun. Where's the challenge in shooting unarmed people?

Yes, the world gets collectively more and more stupider.

Trasher02 05.21.2006 04:53 AM

I can't open the link for some reason can some inform me?

fishmonkey 05.21.2006 05:14 AM

poor taste maybe but fuck it how good can it be? i bet its shit and its shite like that now you dont need on a hard drive.

atsonicpark 05.21.2006 07:56 AM

I think it's badass.

PAULYBEE2656 05.21.2006 08:56 AM

ok fine, whatever. i mean its a role playing vidgame. its not reality. it is a bit soon but aint there tonnes of ww2 roleplayers in the world and gulf war games that depict humans getting their heads blown off and shit.

dont get me wrong, i think the game is not appropriate but there has to be a line drawn between acceptibility and non acceptability and at the moment that line is merely a dotted one, not clear at all.

Trasher02 05.21.2006 09:57 AM

Reminds me of Postal 2.
Has anyone played it or heared about it? It's THE best game ever.
Seriously you can play it all day long without getting bored.
