They don't have X-box live so in Modern Warfare you can control the language.

It probably is the orthodox mo in me that I have no problem with the simulated killing, blood and gore, yet I worry about them hearing language they hear in the halls of school every day.

The killing is simulated, the cussing isn't.

That's how we sleep soundly at night?

I went back and farmed Act IV for a bit, finding new goodies and getting up to level 33. That was the ticket and I finally kicked his trash yesterday. Now I'm working through Nightmare level with the same DH.

How do you know that Act is what?

I don't finish a level until I have the entire map showing. OCD of me I know.

You get a video between acts that tells you. eg going from Act I to Act II the video will display "Act II". Also when you leave an Act you confirm that you are ready to go to the next one. It probably tells you somewhere else too, but those are the ones I remember.

Sex is generally simulated too. And if it is animated (video games) then the nudity is also simulated.

I'm not sure how soundly you sleep, but I'm sleeping just fine.

Whatever it takes.

Honestly, it doesn't take anything.

[RobinFinderson]

Honestly, it doesn't take anything.

You would sleep well knowing that your kids were playing pornographic (simulated) video games?

[Colly Wolly]

Honestly, it doesn't take anything.

Sure thing.

There is an amazing humble bundle going on right now.

The Witcher 2 was very good on Xbox 360 for the RPG fans out there.

Max Payne 3 is meh.

Thanks, Atari!

So did anyone else download the extended ending for ME3? I did, and while it did add more context, it still wasn't too great. I'm just not a huge fan of adding a new element to the story right in the middle of the story's climax. Oh well.

I did, it really didn't add that much. The ending still wasn't good.
