@@famlrnamemssngI wouldn’t either , the internet and technology definitely shifts your mind , you have to be grown to understand the difference and the satire in it
I was a teen for GTA 3, they thought the world was gonna end. There was a guy(Jack Thompson) that was on TV every day for over a decade saying GTA is the cause of youth violence in the nation, funny how we're less violent than ever. Like it gave an outlet to release frustration without hurting anyone.
My parents took away GTA III from me 22 years ago. That game was also touted as having "realistic graphics". I got it back under the condition that I kept my grades up. I ended up finishing highschool with a 3.9gpa so I could continue to play my games. I have a steady career as a senior software engineer. Give your kids GTA6 under the condition that they have to keep their grades up
As the Reporter in the story, I just want you guys to know I’m not attacking the game. I said at the beginning I’ve been playing for years 0:29 going back to Vice City when I was in elementary school (Had to sneak and play with friends). It’s just a discussion from both sides. We heard from a psychiatrist along with a long time player who turned out fine just like me. Regardless… I’ll be buying the game as soon as it’s released 🔥
I’m glad the news has warmed up to video games in general regardless of rating instead of bashing it, instead of demonizing it they’re giving a notice to parents, who I believe should be held accountable for what their children play or watch. Not Rockstar games, who berate you with warnings before playing. While I shouldn’t be playing GTA 6 now by the time it releases I’d be 17 and allowed to purchase it anyways😂
It’s crazy that as someone who plays games, you’d be willing to report on a story that is clearly cannon fodder used as click and rage bait. It’s likely going to be rated M(+17). How come there isn’t a news story every time a violent Rated R movie is released?
@@claridge7549…Dude what are you even talking about?? No one’s demonizing anything. No one ever said anything bad about the game. Click and rage bait? 😂 Bro, you’re clearly reaching. Watch it again and actually listen to what’s being said lol. By the way, I can totally send you a ton a news stories related to movies being called overly violent. Take a few seconds to do a google search and chill out my man.
This happens every time a new GTA game is released… mainstream news loves to hate for the "violent content" which has absolutely nothing to do with real world violence… let us enjoy the video games it’s a break from reality and it’s so much fun and entertaining, no sane person will commit violence just because they played a video game.
I remember these same news reports when I was 7 and gta 3 came out, I’m 29 now. What’s funny is it turned out in 2001 a lot of those news reports about the outage towards the game were orchestrated by a marketing firm to make kids want to buy the game since it became a “my parents don’t want me to play it so I have to” situation. These news reports have been helping sell GTA for decades lmao
There’s kids who understand no, and there’s kids who say they understand no and do it behind your back. Understand your kid before you talk to them about the game. They gonna find a way to play it, some kids avoid the sexual stuff and like to roleplay on the game. Some don’t.
It's going to be rated M, it's going to be a game for adults, it's going to have vulgar language, strip clubs, dirty scenes, drugs, guns, and it's going to make people angry. However this is Rockstar Games they have always made games just for adults, think of it like alcohol, it's meant to be only for adults used to unwind and take the mind off of a bad day and its up to us how it impacts us, and our decisions after. I know that me and many others who are really hyped and waited a long long time for this because of it's groundbreaking features and technologies that will push this industry forward in ways we couldn't comprehend before, and I'm all for it even if there are a few things in it that I and maybe others might not agree with I'll still play it for the joy and peace it brings to me. But of course just like with alcohol, avoid it until you're old and/or mature enough, you'll get there eventually.
@@dububro you're correct, it was mainly a showcase of their rage engine to show their graphical capability. Looking back at the games they've made they have a few that are E and T esrb ratings so I admit I was wrong there but Grand Theft Autos' lineup however has been rated "M" ever since GTA 3., and is commonly known to be a game for adults.
"dont give a 15 year old this, even though we have a prime example that kids will turn out fine" you just proven that your concerns arent even true and also didnt we go thru this in 2013?💀yall really outta worth while material
The game hasn’t even come out yet. It’s no surprise GTA is known for being a mature rated game. Do better Local 4. this is a ridiculous thing to report the news on.
I can’t wait to play it. Im 20 now and no one can stop me💀 imma just sit back and watch the controversy because it’s really entertaining now that I’m an adult.
@@leafytreegaming4168I was like 7 when GTA 5 came out, now I'm 17 and when the game actually does come out in 2025 I'll be 19. I'm so excited to finally be able to buy the game when it comes out of course.
This takes me back to when San Andreas happened and I have to say, I'm so happy Rockstar is pushing news medias to produce these warnings just like in my childhood :') This just made kids want to play it more lol
Exactly anytime people thibk they know best for everyone and th ey say all publicity is good. That is how my dad saw gta 2 on new and bought me it I didn't even know didn't watch news at 7, thank him for starting I had games all 90s. Thry say same with horror, slasher movie or music when actuality is alot is life imitating art imitating life
I love how they said that we are not designed to withstand seeing so much violence.. do they not realize the average 14 year old in Roman times casually fought in spartan blood baths. The mind acknowledges the difference between real and fake.
I started playing GTA San andreas when I was about 10. never got in fights growing up, have never mistreated women, and the only times I've ever wanted to shoot a lot of human shaped things, was at the qual range (Army). I would say GTA actually helped dispel a lot of the "Anger and angst" of my teenage years, among other games, and I now make almost 6 figures. I'd say 10 is to young, but once the kid is HS age, they can handle that kind of stuff no problem, it may even help
Hahaha what parents should know. Weve been through this. Stop talking. The parents you're talking to, WE grew up with these games. Do you understand that? Lol
My parents let me play GTA since I was 7, when I would play the first one. When Vice city came out, I got it two weeks early as my mom was a manager at walmart. Parents told us that if we ever repeated what happens in the game, they would take it away.
The game is rated M for matured which means a child under the age of 17 cannot buy it without parents consent. This whole narrative of games are too adult for children is ridiculous. Be responsible parents then and don’t buy your child the game if you choose to. Quite a few others though will buy the game and guess what many are adult gamers. Yeah that’s such a thing. These people always act like only young kids play games.
@@tonicshade actual they do say that in advertising you will see game rating that is required to be stated. As for kids on social media well that still falls under the parents and if they let them be on social media that’s on them for allowing that. The world shouldn’t be responsible to shield your children, parents do your job instead.
This might sound unbelievably but I was actually the guy in the News (Cayden Thuen) . I think it was a little lame but the game isn't even out yet and already touching up on a topic from 10 years ago.
Bro yall did the same thing with gta 5 and super Mario in the 80,s same thing with mortal combat in the 90,s and most parents won’t even do or say anything if there kid relaxed playing the game
“It provokes violence” Me who picked up my first violent game at 4, has been an avid gamer ever since, and is now a veterinary student who wouldn’t hurt a fly: 😂
It's wild how most parents bought this for their 8-10 year old when 5 came out. N now those same (grand)parents are gonna complain about it. But 100 bucks says they STILL gonna buy it 🤷🏾♂️
I feel like if most parents can be weird and lie to their child telling them that it’s ok to “magically” change their gender, they can easily let their child play GTA 6 🤷♂️
Personally, I don't think anyone under the age of 16 should be playing it. But doesn't matter because they'll find a way. Either downloading illegally or throwing a tantrum until their mom gives in.
I don't know why these people feel as if they can tell parents "not to give their 15 year old this game" ... who are you to tell me what MY child is allowed to do? 🤦♂️
Get ready for all the paid Bible boomers protesting this game to be banned and that it is the devil. Also, ITS AN M RATED GAME MEANT FOR ADULTS, NOT KIDS! 😂😂
yeah, if they want to play it theyre going to find a way, as you just said. hate me for it but i would rather it be done at home where i can discuss the real life consequences with him. rather than it be a bunch of 15 year olds egging one another on to kill more people. this is the same debate we all had growing up, i know many well contributing adults who grew up playing these games, blame the damn parents not the games. scuse me while i go watch the trailer again, i grew up in vice city.
Aw, here we go again. Unnecessary media coverage on a trailer that showed some twerking basically and not much else to warrant "controversy" aside from it just being a new GTA game officially getting announced lol. Lovely. I'm Rockstar loves it even if they don't need it to push sales.
“I’m not telling you to not play” then proceeds to say the people who shouldn’t play it😂 15 man? come on. L news bro. I’m gonna go give copies away for free now to ages 15 and younger😂
Its rated 18+, kids shoudn't play it. Is that even a question? Its a fact, its written on the label. Also, the game is called "Grand Theft Auto" which is a crime in itself. The game isn't the issue, its more like incompetent parenting which sounds very common in America.
I played San Andreas when it came out, I was 7. Played all the gta games since and here I am at 26 and wasn’t affected at all. It’s on the parents to choose whether their kids play it or not, not local news
How about decency in journalism? Many of the scenes in that trailer were directly parodying things we see on the 6 o'clock news every day. At least the blood and guts featured in GTA are a fantasy.
The people that hate on games and call them impressionable on children have never been gamers. They heard about it once in the news and just jumped on the bandwagon like everyone else. Coming from experience with violent games as a kid I’m a grown man now and have never been in any serious trouble nor have I wanted to kill people. Some people are just idiotic with no voice of their own
I like how the same parents that are complaining about this game is to inappropriate for kids, which I’m not saying it isn’t, but at the same time these are the same parents that will give a kid an iPad let their kids watch random RUclips kids watching some Elsagate like videos.
What the news sees: A mindless violent video game What actual gamers see: A compelling rags to riches story encapsulated within a thought provoking satirical take on modern America.
If a child becomes a phyco from a game they have problems and don't know how to control their anger. Yes I've heard where people have thought that they were in gta but I think games don't make the kids a phyco I think the kids behavior to the game is making them go crazy
Rated M games can legally only be bought by parents of children. It's no different than taking a child to a rated R movie. It's game made for adults. Bad parents are just awful. Don't blame the product for horrible people.

I like how the same parents that are complaining about this game is to inappropriate for kids, which I’m not saying it isn’t, but at the same time these are the same parents that will give a kid an iPad let their kids watch random RUclips kids watching some Elsagate like videos.
I played gta 5 with my dad When it originally came out when I was 9 We will be doing the same when GTA6 comes out
What the news sees: A mindless violent video game
What actual gamers see: A compelling rags to riches story encapsulated within a thought provoking satirical take on modern America.
If a child becomes a phyco from a game they have problems and don't know how to control their anger. Yes I've heard where people have thought that they were in gta but I think games don't make the kids a phyco I think the kids behavior to the game is making them go crazy
Rated M games can legally only be bought by parents of children. It's no different than taking a child to a rated R movie. It's game made for adults. Bad parents are just awful. Don't blame the product for horrible people.
