This will be a general response to everyone who replied, because it's late, and I seriously CBA to quote everyone.
Claire: I agree. To me, it doesn't appeal. At all. But to others it does. The way I think of it, is if playing these games satisfies people to the point where they keep it fictional, then it' none of my business. But if it gets to the point where they rape in reality, then it's not the games fault, but the persons mind. Nyororin's statement summed up the fact perfectly.
MMM + Columbine: In GTA, we could argue that the main goal is to create am illegal, wealthy standing in the big city via gunning down anyone in your way, killing anybody, blowing anything up and so on, so on. Let's not get into a comparison debate here, but GTA has a main goal, and it revolves around killing.
Also, MMM, it IS a dangerous message being sent, but again we have minds for a reason. A person who TRULY thinks that women WANT to be raped in reality, need to get checked.
The banning of these games would not effect me in anyway, but I see no harm in them, seeing as they are not affecting anyone in reality. It's all to do with a person's mind.
There are many more things in the media to worry about than simple rape games that don't really effect anyone but the deluded.
