We used to see people doing stupid things they had have picked up at the movies, now it's people doing stupid things they picked up in games.
This is one of the few threads with the word "game" in it that hasn't drifted into ban territory right way for shifting focus onto gaming instead of firearms issues. I hope it can avoid that pitfall.
I doubt that game companies would have any requirement to reveal how much they paid or were paid due to placement of gun company copyrighted/trademarked material. Pity, it would have been interesting.
I suppose it's not surprising that younger shooters were inspired to look to real firearms once they were exposed to their entertainment source. How many older members got real six shooters and rifles because they saw their cowboy heros on "the silver screen" and B&W TV and graduated from the toy one while those of us in my generation grew up with Bond and war movies/TV and itched for the day we could get old enough to trade our plastic and wood toys for "real" M1s?
