I just love how basically the commercial is saying "Yes, we are marketing this mature rated game to kids!"
I think it's good that the mothers were shown this. Maybe now mothers will get the idea when a game has a big fat M on it it means it is not for the kids and they will think twice about getting it.
Who knows. Probably not.

This reminds me of when I worked in the video game dept. at Toys R Us. I've had so many parents buy "M" rated games for their kids, even after I told them what was in it.
I do remember one mom who was gonna buy God of War I and II for her 7 year old for Christmas. After I got through explaining exactly why the game was rated Mature, that kid did not get God of War I or II for Christmas. The mom looked at me with such shock on her face. She said "Hell No!".

amen to that! im proud to be 22! then again i was mature at 7 when watching this kind of stuff. my mom had one rule when i watched TV/Movies as long as it didn't have nudity she didn't care.
That is one angry post up there. And an extreme loyalty to Duke Nukem.
Yeah Duke had both babes and gore.... that commands extreme loyalty!!
I've seen better acting when your girlfriend fakes an orgasm with you.
I have trouble believing this was actually real. The guy is killing aliens and these monstrous creatures and one of them says "You wanna have fun killing somebody?" and others looked like they were gonna cry too? A slight overreaction if you ask me. It also doesn't help that a lot more companies are doing these types of "focus group" commercials. If this was real, they definitely only searched for moms that probably wouldn't let their children even read a Calvin and Hobbes strip because he might be a bad influence

I think the game deserves a better marketing campaign than this...
same here. personally i don't think age has anything to do with being mature. i've been playing violent games since i was about 12 or 13 and i've been watching violent movies since i was about 5. and not once hace i ever had thoughts of murder or violence, or rape or any of that shit.
in the end its all the parents fault, for there kids going violent it has nothing to do with media.
well i grew up kinda poor. i didn't get a game station till i was about 12 or 13. but i guess i could go back further i was about 6 or 7 when i first started playing mortal kombtat 2. i played on my uncles snes.
