    You may have encountered some of the recent controversy over Bulletstorm and, in the past few days, Dead Island:

    There's been a lot of debate about this in the Entertainment sector recently, so what does Not606 think?

    “If a younger kid experiences Bulletstorm's explicit language and violence, the damage could be significant,” Dr. Jerry Weichman, a clinical psychologist at the Hoag Neurosciences Institute in Southern California, told FoxNews.com.

    It's pretty ****ing simple, the game is rated 18, so someone must be buying it for them, so it's hardly the game developers fault that parents don't listen to the age recommendation they've put on the game.

    Americans being ******ed, again.
