FPS games have come under a lot of heat lately. The military shooters seem to be getting the most heat. It seems to be coming from the PC left, under the guise of concern for children... I got news for them... Adults are the major buyers of these games. They’re actually marketed to young adults, but a lot of us older guys play as well.

I belong to a gaming clan that plays several different FPS games on Tuesday and Saturday evenings. There’s 30 of us and the youngest is in his early thirties, the oldest is 69. Great group of guys and great fun. The darn games (like COD: BO) cost 60 bucks or so for crying out loud. So, if kids are getting their hands on the game, it’s the parent who buys it for ems fault. That or they’re getting pirated copies of the game, which just goes back to lack of parental supervision.

Great game, great commercial, and good job by Kobe.

I laughed when I saw Kobe too. Very well done commercial. I’m a gamer as well, but my taste is more towards fantasy and TBS games.
