The majority of young gamers knew that this would happen. What is curious is that a game so violent and hated by parents is such a good business for the people of Rockstar Games. Grand Theft Auto is a game where one is a fictional character working for mafias, committing crimes and theft. This game not only is characterized by that, it also contains cars, planes, boats and many more artifacts from daily life.
According to media, this game has generated in their first 24 hours, more than $800 million dollars, beating Call of Duty Black Ops 2, a game that came out last year, generating a turnover of $500 million in 24 hours.
In my opinion, it makes no sense that people worry more for how violent this game is, instead of thinking about how our world is filled with such tragic things. I’m not saying not to let kids play, nor that the game should be banned. Just keep in mind that life is more than just video games.
