Do you find US horror scary? I was raised on it and I am not ever fazed by it anymore.

If this wasn't such a big issue, it wouldn't be so persistent in it's overall tone. Individual gamers contribute to culture, but everyone needs to admit that this IS an issue.

I don't care if you agree at this point; it's not a point that is validated by your opinion.

This is a new word to you?

If you judge a comedian from their sanitized late-night network television friendly routine...
