It doesn't matter really, you may know it's just a game but some people are not like that, and some people may get a rush out of killing someone with a plastic bag on the game and may think it'll be as fun doing the real thing, it's not murdering that's the problem it's just ways that people that are a bit messed up in the head may find fun and try and experiment with on real people

what headcase would do that? be realistic, come on. if you are a murderer in waiting you'll most likely be dealing drugs and guns not playing manhunt. i don't understand the difference between this and any other shooter. yes, theres other methods of killing on manhunt, but guns are just as effective - and you see them on the majority of games nowadays. people don't run round the street shouting "OMG GRAW 2, DIE *****!".

You don't realise that these methods are all over the internet already and if anyone wanted to go round murdering people they'd just look on the internet first. you say these methods are 'easy', if they are easy will they not be easy to work out anyway?

Not everyone in the world is completely normal, people can get large amounts of excitement out of killing someone (why do you think most of them do it) and this game basically gives people very easy methods that you could pretty much do on any busy street, some people don't see games and movies as you and I, they see them and feel that what is happening is real, just because you wouldn't do it and you think it wouldn't happen it doesn't make it so, people have killed under the influence of games because it puts you in control, unlike a movie, people that don't really realise the difference between reality and games/movies may get alot more enjoyment out of Manhunt than most people because there brains don't work quite the way ours do and they're acting out what they do in the game

I'd just like to add, it's not the fact that these methods are easy to perform it's the fact that they are being encouraged in the game, you don't understand that people don't always murder over money/gangs/love but people do murder just for the fun they get out of it, if 15 years old play this (you know they will) they may get ideas, and don't say "but they wont they're grown up enough to know the difference" because it doesn't matter, people that don't know can not know at any age, and I know you've head about things like children in america bringing guns to school and I'm sure you've heard about the childs play killing, mostly because of games like manhunt and movies that are just way too realistic

Edit - Purple guy, I think you should leave these as 1 week things, people can discuss it enough in 1 week I think

[mangle]

Isn't there a gene in you which determines whether you have to potentional to be an axe murderer or w.e?
My science teacher said most of the murderers out there become murderers due to their upbnringing but there is a gene in you which can give you the potentional to kill.

Yeah, I guess so. If it's gonna be a really special thing then I'll discuss it in PMs with a few people and see if the special really does deserve two weeks.

Anyway, just a quick preview of whats to come tommorow

If you work it out, free +REP
