Let's Keep Violence Impersonal

I too have to agree with Noelle on the whole cloning issue. The fact that they have come up with the technology to do something like that is pretty cool, but I know that as a member of the game violence group, many of us are finding countless articles on how some people just cannot handle the responsibility of these games, and then to personalize it on top of the violence? That does seem to be a bit much. Like Noelle said, it could be kinda fun to do it with games that are a little less violent, but for the real gory one's I think it's safer to stick with what we have. Making a violent game personal, might just take away the fun behind it and make kids focus more on how to shoot a realistic looking human being. In addition, it just raises the level of virtual interactivity that the player has with the game, and like I said before, I have found many articles that explain that even young adults are not mature enough to take these games for what they are-just fun.
