So why is it an intelligent approach to film children playing games obviously NOT suitable for their age? Would have been more interesting to see adults play those games or children with childrens' games. Didn't see anything spectacular other than the one kid beeing amused by what happened on the screen. And the blond girl was cool.^^

Yeah, we were curious about the fact that they were playing adult games. My immediate feeling is that he's interested in how violent titles affect younger players - that's where the controversy in the mainstream media is.

That said, I don't want to put words in Robbie Cooper's mouth. We've been in touch with him and will hopefully be doing an interview. That should get us an answer from the source.

more Art than Science, IMO. I'd like to see what was happening onscreen as well, I don't believe that would violate my religious strictures against splitscreen gaming...
