What Age to Play GTA V

[Adrian]

As a 13 year I think it's okay if you know whats wrong and what is not,for example i would never do drugs,pick up hookers,kill people,rob a bank etc and i think parents have to understand that if you play a violent game like gta you wont do such things in real life,even tho i agree with parents that argue about the sex and torture scenes,there are multiple cutscenes which include sex,however you can skip these cutscenes,but there is a mission in story mode where you have to film a couple having sex and one mission where you have to torture a guy by shocking him with electricity and other things which i think fits the character of the game however its not recommended for children under 12,now some talk about the swearing in gta but just spend a day at school with your child and listen to all the swearing and the swearing in gta is just a joke compared to school,and for the sex and torture aswell as vilence,most kids over 12 have already seen porn,knows about torture and have seen violence possibly in school but most likely on the internet.With all this said i think that most kids over 12 will ignore the obvious vioence,sex and torture either way.The game isnt as bad as you think,oh and btw,ITS A GAME its not meant to be reflected to reality it is just for entertainment purposes and isnt it better doing such things in games than doing it in real life?and no your kid wont get crazy by playing vioent games.

those regulations are mostly for muricans who give their loaded guns for 2year olds to play while they go to take a nap

Depends on each person. 13 is almost high school though so censoring stuff at that point (once you are in high school) is pretty much useless.

Not recommended for kids under 12? Nibba, this game is rated M, no one under the age of 17 should be playing it.

I've played gtas since I was eight at my friends house and now gtav on my own pc, and I didn't really see anything wrong with it, I like the game but people under 12 probably shouldn't play.

It entirely depends on the person. I will agree with the person above me though that anyone under 12 should not be allowed to play, and anyone from 13-15 should be on a case by case basis. By 16 chances are they have seen or heard worse on TV.

You need to be 17 years old at least to play this game.

Your young mind could be affected by the content. So is better if you limit yourself with games according to your age.

I know is not fair, but we can't do anything about it.

Good luck

Are your parents playing the game?

Influence is a devious tool, therefore I suggest another pursuit, instead of gaming. These pursuits share no beneift, in simpler terms, it is futile.

Yeah the reason i said 12,and yes i know its M rated and all that but be honest,at age 12 youve seen alot of violence,most likely porn and know about drug dealing and torture just because of the internet and friends at school.I know people who played it since they were 9-10 years old but i do certaintly not recommend it at that age as most havent seen much violence etc.

Yes i know but as i said,most 12 year olds and up have seen content just like the content in gta,to be honest the new generation has moved faster forward than age ratings on games,middle school is worse than gta as people search and show stuff on the phone,ppl talking about it and you just know alot about the content that appears in gta(not specifically gta content but stuff that are like that in gta)

In the 1920's people were afraid movies would have a devastating effect on the mind and society.
In the 1960's rock music was the embodiment of evil.
Ever since Mortal Kombat people point to videogames as the next antichrist.

I've been playing far worse stuff on the Commodore 64 when I was young and I turned out ot be just fine. I doubt games like "command air Libya" (1986) would make it to Steam nowadays.

It is not the medium that screws the mind; any random input can do that. Serial killers have always been around. Jack the Ripper never played a video game, never listened to rock music and never saw a movie.

As long as your not a sociopath, you're fine.

If you don't live in the USA - doesn't matter what age you are. If you live in the USA and as a citizen - 18 and over which most parents in the USA don't care about their kids. LOL
