My peers? I hope not.

"Now that our children are getting older and wanting to play some of the more adult games, we are more aware of the violence"

"When I was younger, I loved blood and gore in my games... Violence in games like Mortal Kombat should not be watched by children."

"Now when I see my kids playing the same games, I have an immediate reaction and curb their playing due to the violence."

"As I get older, the games seem to get bloodier and bloodier"

We have a word for this: hypocracy.

If it was ok when you were a kid it's probably just fine now.

And the idea that 3-D Ultra Mini-Golf is going to be as satisfying over time to a gaggle of testosterone-hyped youths is just plain simple.
