Which game always makes me shudder is the game with the murderer with no hair on his head ... don't know his name.


Hitman? And if it is: what makes him so bad compared to others?

The overall image he creates. I know that this is by design, but he's the kind of type I even wouldn't want to meet in bright daylight.

@Morbo : It partly depends on who plays it.

But on the other hand, it's just too much for my taste. I've bought a new gaming mag today, and the first 20 pages I flipped through, not even reading them . They were filled with war games and FPS games. There is almost nothing else ! What I miss are games without shooting, action, war, weapons etc. Maybe I should begin playing the Sims. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

And playing only games which incorporate these elements all of the time might leave an impact somehow, I believe. I know that you know that these are only articifial games - products of "unreality" - but what about the unconscious part of our selves ? I know that people easily can say "this is just a game; this is no real violence, I don't actually hurt someone", but what's about the unconscious mind ? Is it really able to distinguish between real life models on on the PC and real life out on the streets ?

That's what makes me uneasy.

When you find a big kettle of crazy, it's best not to stir it.
