I’ve yet to see the game, so I can’t comment on it’s content. One thing though… what’s wrong with graffiti artists? It’s great if the game encourages kids to take it up and participate in tournaments. They’re not necessarily going to start vandalising walls just because of it.

Then that’s a matter for government to sort out. Tony Blair has announced his new ‘Respect’ policy. We’ll see how that goes. The point is that we can’t ban something because some people who do it do so illegally. We need to get to the route of WHY they do it. Most probably because they don’t have the facilities in their community to do it legally. -

And yet, I am assuming the game promotes it. Thus the game is promoting an illegal activity that it common-place and easily accessible. Its promoting an illegal activity as fun. Thats where the problem lies.
Got nothing to do with the government policies. -

Wasn’t that in an era where people didn’t care about games as a serious media :)

More like wasnt that in an era where there were other stories with better shock value to ram down the throats of the general public.
