[quote]Since it's release in September of last year, the video game Destiny, Bungie's newest venture, has been extremely popular with people of all ages. Is this coincidence, a smash hit, or something more sinister from the legendary game designers?[/quote]
Skipping the boring part of the article and getting straight to the meat of it:
[quote]Perhaps Bungie's commercial success with the legendary Halo franchise has made them desperate to build up a larger and more dedicated fan base than newer rival 343 Industries, the part of the company that stayed with Microsoft, and the legendary franchise. This may have led to the questionable decisions by Bungie on gameplay and storyline that are affecting the unusually young audience (Brought in by the game's "Teen" rating from the ESRB) in a detrimental way, beyond the evils of a regular first person shooter.
The first way in which Destiny corrupts the youth of America is through the very idea of the main character, a member of an army blindly following a masked man called "The Speaker." Anyone who considers this at all sees the obvious real life parallel: Kim Jong Un and North Korea. This game teaches these young people to blindly follow a leader, possibly weakening their minds to North Korean propaganda.
A second risk caused by this game is an increase in suicide. In the game, a popular strategy is called "Wiping," where players agree to commit suicide (in game) to gain an advantage. This may desensitize children to the concept of suicide, as they respawn within a few seconds, actually better off than they were before. This teaches children that suicide is not only okay, but actually beneficial in some cases.
A final major issue is the introduction of a giant floating ball, called "The Traveller." Our expert researchers believe that this Traveller is designed to represent the Antichrist. It controls the Kim Jong Un-like Speaker, and leads them against an army of free people (Represented as inhuman monsters) in gory battles. It also grants them demonic powers, such as magical guns, knives, and other attacks. This evil magic should not be shown to the children of America, and should be treated as a serious threat to society. [/quote]

What do you guys think? I personally think Fox News is insane!
Please keep it clean and friendly. Last time I showed you guys this, some people got a little out of hand.
Edit: Alright, who bumped this?

I think that I have became a better person actually. I've been doing my homework before I get on, I know social skills thanks to LFG. I know how to talk to others thanks to LFG...and all in all Fox news is a bunch of bullshit...if they made a story on how destiny is racist the sheep of Fox News would agree without even trying the game.

The way to succeed in life is to do the opposite of what fox news says and never listen to anything they report on
-
If anything, this is propaganda in and of itself.

I -blam!-ing love fox. They NEVER fail to disappoint when you need some funny bullshit. They are so clueless.

Man drops toast on floor, cries. Are guns to blame?

That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Someone actually believes this, it saddens me because they are probably legally allowed to drive a heavy metal object at faster than human speeds. A car. Morons at every nook and cranny of this planet. Even worse, they are probably older than 3 years old...

Fair and balanced like always :)

This might just be the single worst piece of journalism i ever read. Not just because i'm a destiny player.

You can flip every one of the scenarios to something going on currently in America... Seriously you can, Fox News would be the Cryptarch.... Always giving bad news!
-
Holy -blam!-. You are a mother fùcking genius. I'm just going to borrow that link. I always pay attention to the last three letters but a link changer changes the game. Amazing. Nobody clicked the link. God dayum. All da sheep.
