My husband and I discussed this for the entire drive into work this morning and we decided that we'd let him play it. M-Rated gaming rules in my house are not going to change, so I'll still be involved while he actually plays the thing. If I think he's old enough to watch A Clockwork Orange supervised, then he's old enough to play GTA supervised.
I saw the results of some informal poll today about what people think is the worst thing for video games to show. Sex was the number one thing, while saying "fuck" repeatedly was the least. Blowing someone's head off or something like that was number two and two men kissing was number three. To me, this looks like people think it's more acceptable to shoot and kill someone than it is to have sex with someone. WTF is wrong with people today? I'd rather have my son tell me that he's sexually active than have police bust down my door and drag him away because he killed someone... Hellloooooo?
