This game should be BANNED.

- IT'S DISGUSTING! What are we teaching our kids these days? In one game a witch strangles a cat! Another game has a mounty hitting a woman with a frying pan. Another condones stealing sweets, saying that they 'taste better'.

Is animal cruelty, domestic violence and common theft really what we need to teach our children in this already dangerous society? And using a well-known and well-loved 60s cartoon partnership is just plain vile! I call for a ban of this game on these grounds!

Didn't the ESRB review this before it was released? Unbelievable!

[DubNut86]

[CORPSE CRISIS]

I guess I'm the only one who didn't miss the sarcasm bus. TC, you made me laugh, thank you!

[tastefulmrship]

I guess sarcasm is lost on this forum... oh well, never mind!
And this game is aimed at children.

EDIT: Oh good, someone noticed!

[Apple]

It's hard to "catch" sarcasm when there is no evidence for it. If there would have been a "right...?" maybe I would have caught it, but no. A thread solely based on sarcasm? I don't get it!...

[tastefulmrship]

I think a sarcastic thread is far better than the 'this game is sh*t, don't buy it' or 'is this game worth it?' threads that plague this forum. If you don't like it, I'll get a MOD to delete it. No probs.

Wow, either he doesnt play xbox that often, or he is really strung out. Cant we stop bashing each other here, other games like GTA, Bioshock, Condemed are worse by far than this game. Its just regular cartoon violence, that I know we all grew up on. If thats the case, all morning cartoons should be banned, and if they were, I would have grown up so much different.

[Chi-gti 97]

Hell, I looked at his achievements, and he has more than me in this very game, the one he is b****ing about. WTF?!?! Say one thing, do another.

[ThrawnOmega]

Sarcasm is generally very hard to pull off in print, so I usually don't bother. Or you have to set up the sarcasm if serious statements, to make it more clear. I dunno...

[Shaynringan]

He's joking, guys. ^_^ Seriously He's not really offended by that stuff :-) He's just making a point, is all.

[Chi-gti 97]

I may sound stupid, or I just missed the point. What is he trying to get at? He is in all the other threads dealing with r/b asking for advice and help, and yet he creates this thread and slams it.

Man, while you were joking.... couldn't you just imagine Jack Thompson saying this.

[gatorbait]

I didn't think the sarcasm was that hard to pickup. Especially mentioning he has 200 in the game but I'm sure not everyone noticed. I found it a bit humorous but I don't think anyone on this board is that crazy to be seriously offended by a Rocky and Bullwinkle game.

[Chi-gti 97]

Sorry, I just feel that I need to keep things in check every once in a while. He is still an idiot, but I understand.

[alexsimms]

Posted a response about murder in games... then got the sarcasm, then deleted. I feel dumb.

So, because you cannot fully understand the mechanics of my sarcasm, I am an idiot? Surely, sir, you can see the irony in that?

I see you have played Orange Box and Rainbow Six. Does killing people (murder) fall into your category? You seem to want to play them. Maybe instead of complaining you should act and not support these developers by not buying their games.

Everyone else... buy them, they are good.

Three things;

1. Read the sarcasm. Read it again. Ask a parent to help.
2. Rainbow Six and Orange Box are not rated E for Everyone by ERSB, Rocky & Bullwinkle is.
3. Take note of the irony statement above.

EDIT: Although I'm keeping your post and my reply intact, I respect your edit.

Chi-gti your the only idiot in this forum didn't you even read the previous posts before posting lol

Yes?!? Not only are you lacking a basic grasp of punctuation and grammar, you've also failed to spot the subtle sarcasm in the thread. And the constant references to this being sarcastic throughout.
(Where's Mr. Period when you need him?)

Oh, and kids shouldn't be playing GTA IV, it's rated 18. This is how Rockstar can get away with glorifying crime in (almost) all its games.

[Kochise]

LMAO. Are you kidding me? Who cares? You seriously have problems if a game bothers you. Its a freakin game. I hope someone hits you with a frying pan and strangles your cat. Ha. God its amazing what some people cry about these days. I seriously feel sorry for you and pity you. Maybe one day youll actually realize there is more important things to worry about and that its not the 1920s no more.

[greatREDvinny]

How come most people read only the OP? If you didn't catch the blatant sarcasm there, you would have seen that fact posted several times on the first page. Ugh..

[masterzach]

just like to say that kids probally dont even know what rocky and bullwinkle is because they dont air it on tv anymore along with looney toons and all the classics i grew up to, now they got tv shows that are stupid
