BBC Asks If Games Have Gone Too Far

After two big PR blunders this week, the gaming industry is again on the defensive from the mainstream media. First, Manhunt 2 surprised no one by getting an AO rating in the USA, which essentially means major retailers like Wal-Mart will not carry it, and then topped it off by getting banned entirely in the United Kingdom. Then, word came out that real images of a toddler being led off by his eventual killers were present in a five-year old Law & Order game, prompting a recall of the product from store shelves.

Now the BBC has a talk-back question on their website that asks: "Have computer games gone too far?"
