It dosen't really effect my gameplay. I'd just expect games like Oblivion to have some kids running around playing in some of the towns and the Imperial City.

Well thats something we can agree on. But if i recall, there were a few games with kids and all that. Its pretty simple too: The sims. Sure there arent any guns or violence, but the first sims game for the ps2 had kids in it.

Hmmmmm, come to think of it, doesnt Maple Story's characters kinda look like kids?

Fable had kids. You could kill them, and flirt with them.

It could be for the simple fact that we live in a society where censorship is highly considered in every single aspect of the media.

Grand Theft Auto and Oblivion grant you the option to kill at will. You go around killing children, you know what that will spawn.

Which is quite a lost cause if you ask me, because, certainly, in Grand Theft Auto, you go around having sex with hookers, dealing drugs, killing innocent people, etc. I honestly don't see what more of an impact Rockstar would make on the media if they were to have children NPC's.

We are not a free country, believe me, we are not free.

Fallout 1 & 2. The rating was subtle considering it had a truely non-linear storyline.

You can be titled as a child killer.

Also, what about Postal 1 & 2?

Postal is a little more underground. It didn't turn up much profit, so it wasn't very covered by the media.

Well, at first I thought you meant kids at other games, like, RPG games or adventure games, but when you said GTA, it changes a lot because killing a kid isn't the same as killing an adult, its considered more 'dramatic' because the person you are killing is younger.
