Lim is fucked up badly… that crazy old man has alot of issues on games when hes supposedly concentrating on removing poverty in manila. Those violent games becomes past time by kids to relieve stress from poor life. . . Lim should probably 1st fix the unemployment rate of manila before tackling the video game issue. . .dumb old man. . .

Congratulations to Philippine Alliance Against Pornography. And also to Mayor Lim for his consistency in the crusade against pornography and now, against violent vidieo games.

To players, baka hindi nyo alam, addict na kayo, later on you will also imbibe what you see in the violent video games. Same thing sa pornography. Stats indicate that there is an increase of cases of rape, molestation of women and children, marital infidelity, teen pregnancy because of exposure to porno. Same thing with stats on crime that is rising.

Let us support Mayor Lim and organizations like PAAP

Yeah, that’ll put the minors in good shape. I was a resident in the Philippines before and played Mortal Kombat 3 for the Genesis. I was playing with nobody. I played myself as player 1 and player 2 was in user controlled. Then I never use my Genesis again. Good thing I’m not a minor anymore. I can play Grand Theft Auto IV when I buy it and I wouldn’t let my niece or my little cousin see me play the game. There’s always the rating systems in the Philippines and it’s completely different from Japan or the US.

Mayor Lim has the responsibility to get the kids away from let’s say, Virtua Cop series, House of The Dead series or Grand Theft Auto. They have a law that is equivalent to the movies and television shows and I’m very proud of Mayor Lim for what he have done. Hindi puede maglaro mga bata sa violent video games. Ano genre may gusto mga bata? Racing, platform, puzzle? Sino may gusto laro sa racing? I was speaking in tagalog, it literally means, “Don’t let children play violent video games. What genre would the kids like?” and the last sentence means, “Who likes to play racing?”

It’s a very interesting language and this was my first. Still, for mayor Lim, he knows what to do with the kids and I just appreciate that.

Minors should be banned from games, not the other way around.
I want more gore, lots more.
