This is why I laugh at the media that tries to cover gaming:

    Incredible. Honestly, media trying to defame video games is just hilarious because of how exaggerated everything is.

     

    Fortnite has got to be one of the most kid-friendly shooting games I have ever seen, how could it possibly be "too violent".

    The Alien franchises is significantly more violent and I don’t see much complaining.

    The issue is that many of these studios are responsible for movies and they see gaming as a possible deterrent for future movie-goers. I don't know if this is the case with the Aussie news program, but it is the case with most of the USA news outlets.

    Is that why they're making all these video game movies?

    US corporate media is only good for real time coverage. 

     

    I only pay attention to new media news shows.

    @leadeater Are the news outlets in NZ and Australia owned by film studios?

    @Crunchy Dragon Yes, but they've all gone the way of E.T. since inception.

    One word: guns.  That's their only argument.  This whole video game violence issue is only coming back from the dead because all the f**ktard SJWs wanted it to.

    lol the delay between words. Also not that I have seen, but I don't really watch a lot of NZ news. However I work in education and kids playing Fortnite in school is not a wide spread problem here.
