I was talking with a coworker about what games my parents allow me to play, and what they let their kids play. My parents were fine with most things bloody things, like Resident Evil 4, Left 4 Dead and Gears of War, mostly because you were fighting like aliens or zombies. They were fine with military shooters too, and got really interested in the Modern Warfare storylines. The game that they really had a problem with was GTA, of course, but later, when my little sister started playing it, they got invested in GTA 5’s story, so eventually we could just play whatever we really wanted. How bout you all? Did your parents have any weird or strict rules in games or movies?

    I loved video games as a kid. They didn’t limit the content. I just wasn’t able to play video games during the week and I could only play an hour each day. I think that mindset backfired. Also, it didn’t stop me from going over to my friends house to play video games. By the time I could afford my own, they gave up.
