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 don’t remember my parents having many, if any, rules for games, probably because I was the final child by that point. They didn’t really have to worry too much about me getting into games too mature for me ( probably the worst I could remember when I was still little would have been Turok on n64 ), so I was fine either way.
I do remember on weekends, though, my dad specifically trying to get me, someone who doesn’t like to eat breakfast in general, to eat before I’d play games. That was around middle school when that would happen.
