I apologize.

I made a decision to avoid posting topics whose humor is derived from the reaction of the replies, not from content of the topic itself. Obviously this topic was treading on that line and not many people could see it was satirical. Therefore many angry replies were had despite it being tagged #satire. But rather than leave the thread up with a disclaimer, I feel it's better to take it down. So...sorry.

  • It's rated T for Teen out of cliche. What shooting game would be rated E10+?

      NO- My son is 11. He has been playing Destiny since he was 10. I will never forget our days of VOG. I would lead a fireteam of randoms and friends plus my son. People would always ask... "Does Superfly have a mic" I would reply.....it's ok guys he is in the room with me. I have two t.v.s and two PS4's in my gaming room. We would beat VOG...and afterwards I would tell them that superfly is 10...People would flip out...not believing me. I have even heard...People say Superfly is better than them.

    • I'm 15 and as far as I'm concerned, I'm a lot more mature than some people older than me.

    • That facial recognition thing wouldnt work, parents could just do it and then let their kid get on. And what if you are let's 14 and it says you are 12, you are locked out of games you should be able to play. They also would have to give everyone who doesnt have a kinect for free if they were to add this. Imagine getting on one day and not being able to play your games until you could go and get a kinect. Also, you said it would prepare them for the real world, but you know what else is in the real world other than taxes? Violence and cussing.

    • So many parents just want to be a friend to their child and don't care about agr restriction labels and that is just a fact of life that we all have to face.

    • [quote][quote]Rated T for teen. (online interactions not rated by the ESRB.) [/quote] How often does this appear on the covers of video games? Better yet, how often is it paid attention to or even enforced? Clueless parents go to wal-mart or to gamestop to by the latest, hottest new game for their children, not caring much about what the game may contain in it. If it makes their child happy, why not? Thus, the population of children on violent video games is growing ever more prevalent. Just the other day I played one of the Call of Duty games only to have some 10 year old tell me that he shared a bed with my dear mother. Another accused me of being Jewish. This is quite tragic, as children should not be saying those things. What causes it? Well, they are exposed to the online community before they are mature enough to handle the online community. That, and they are playing violent video games. Destiny is rated T for teen. That means that it was specifically geared towards those who have just entered the age of puberty. It was not meant for children. It may not be too graphic, but it is definitely violent. It won't be long before a 9 year old bashes his sister's head open looking for loot and glimmer. That is why I propose we restrict users from under 13 from playing Destiny. How do we do that? Well, with the xbox 360 and PS3, it's impossible. But with the PS4's camer and xbox One's Kinect, facial recognition could be utilized. It scans players' faces, matches them up with a public database, and verifies the age on record. If the face does not match or if the player is not registered, then he or she cannot play. Until they get registered (and verify the registration with SSN), they will be unable to play. Of course the parents will do most of this work. But, if the children do this themselves, then it will be a boon to them. For they will be preparing for the real world, where they have to handle taxes.[/quote] Are you the real long face?

      • Topic was utterly ridiculous. I knew there was going to be a satire right from the start.

        • Sorry, but if they do that then half of the very shrinking community will disappear...and then older people will be pissed because they can't find people to do the raids with, complain to bungie, then quit...

But seriously, make it 18+ and make it darker, more intense and more horror.

          • My Step- brother put his nuts on my drumset. I beat him down and he dropped an Engram, glimmer and some Ether Seeds. Well worth it in my book.
