dudes, help me convince my parents

[xuphorz]

my parents think Death Jr. is a death obsessed slaughter game that focuses on devil-worshipping with a lot of blood and gore, and the whole point of the game is just to kil people. help me convince them that's not true

[hbk2005v1]

wtf how old r u then my parents would let me buy any thing i want are u still in school lol

[slik da relic]

lol... i had a similar situation when i tried to buy my girlfriend's 2 little brothers Devil Dice for playstation. its a done deal.

[Cap'n 1time]

i remember buying mortal kombat II when i was a young'n.. i told my parents it was Mario Kart II... suckers. Ive always had a bit of a blood lust in video games... I concider it art.

Anyway perhapes you could find a demo trailer or somthing and show it to them?

[xuphorz]

i'm 17, btw
way old enough, they just are too freaking strict

i already showed them some trailers, but the trailers emphasizes on swinging the sythe at enemies, and they don't like that. any people play it around here that can directly say it's not a bad game?

well then do what i did when i was your age (an entire year ago!). get a job, go to the store, and buy it yourself. your old enough to decide what is appropriate enough for you or not and its time your parents understood that.

[Mourningstar]

Yea, get the money yourself and buy it.....what are you going to do when you are 18? Ask Mommy and Daddy to still support you?

[xuphorz]

i have a job people. have over $2000 in my bank account
they won't let me rent or buy it. i can't move out of the house cause i'm still in high school, and my job doesn't pay nearly enough to afford rent each month

[Mourningstar]

THEY CANT STOP YOU!

Unless you allow them to....If you have the money just buy the damn thing, theres nothing legal to stop you....

[xuphorz]

right, like i'm gonna do that again.
i still have a scar from last time i did that.

[Mourningstar]

Then report their ass to child services....

[xuphorz]

i just wanted someone to say the game wasn't bad, and it turned into everyone hating my parents. could a mod close this?

[Mourningstar]

What?

We cant tell your parents what THEY think is good/bad. The point is that YOU have your OWN money and can LEGALLY buy ANY game....

Whats so hard to understand?

[Cross]

right, like i'm gonna do that again.
i still have a scar from last time i did that.

o.O Are your parents like Jahova's Witnesses or something?

Damn, and I thought my life was bad when I moved out at 17. Anyway (god that was 5 yrs ago now.... damn I wish I had stayed home and not graduated my jr yr... missed all the fun.)

Anyway can't help ya Xuphor but if u see a copy of Valkery Profile anywhere let me know lol. I will buy ur game and trade ya for it along with a review all about what a nice non blood and gore game it is!

[xuphorz]

i have that game on ps1

[RedKing14CA]

Alright Xuphorz' parents, death jr is not an evil game, trust me i am of christ, and i have read reviews 'n' such for this game... its a very cartoonish game, with a funny story line... there are hack 'n' slash elements to the game, but its nothing too bad, from what i know, from the screen captures i have seen...

i am planning on getting death.jr for my psp next year!

the reason it is called death.jr is becaus eit is about "deaths" son, the make beleive character Death... its not about going around and killing people, i beleive its where no one can die because death.jr's father is missing and he has to find him...

thx for listening, and be kind to your kid, (but if he has GTA San Andreas or GTA Vice City, i'd make him sell them... gta3 is fine...)

[xuphorz]

if he has GTA San Andreas or GTA Vice City, i'd make him sell them

i'm older than u are, and u'r saying that to me?
i have both, btw. my parents just don't like death obsessed games. (which i know death jr. isn't)

thanks for that saying redking, it helped

[Mourningstar]

Xuphorz, I just want to make sure that you dont think Im being an ass.

Im just trying to make you understand that you can get the game if you want to. Theres nothing wrong with you buying a game from your own money. And if you are 17 then you can buy any game made rated from E to M. And if your parents are that strict then just hide it from them. ;)

[Mourningstar]

i'm older than u are, and u'r saying that to me?

They let you play GTA, but not Death Jr? What a bunch of ****ing hypocrites.

[xuphorz]

as i said, they don't like death obsessed, or what the think, are death obssesed games. (no Devil May Cry for me)

[Mourningstar]

Do you realize that they will think/act the same way once you are 18 and can legally make all of your own choices?

Its best to put an end to it now and hopefully avoid damaging your relationship with your parents once you are grown, understand what Im saying?

[xuphorz]

man, once i get enough money, i'm outta here

[Mourningstar]

I dont blame you, I did the same thing. But I regret setting my parents straight earlier. If you plan on having a relationshio with them then you need to fix this problem soon or the bitching and control will last for years....I speak from experience. ;)

[kash]

yo man dont be a puss you're 17 you can buy games for yourself w/ out anyone knowing.

[B_man55]

Just show them a damn video of the game. It's just a cute cartoonish game. Devil May Cry isn't really "death obsessed". It's about KICKING THE DEVILS ASS. I really feel bad for you. You say you had a scar from last time? What the hell happened? You bought a game you wern't supposed to and they beat you or something? They won't let you play a cartoonish death game, but they'll wail on you. I don't get it..

[pepegomez]

his problem is that he has 2000$ on his account but he cant drop this money off it cuz he obviously needs his parents to get it.

i have about 250€ on my account but i cant get it cuz i need my mom to gemme, its just a saving account. if im 18 i can take it on my own. thats his real problem i guess

[xuphorz]

it's not savings account, it job real money account.
yes, i can take it out, but i have no car, and parents won't let me borrow theirs

[shizzle]

jesus xuphorz you're 17. I thought you were like 15, after all the stealing incident. No offence but you need some backbone man. i can go out and get any game i want and i'm only 14. i had doom3 upon release. 17, you are a man my son. i go out and can drink, but you're not me. You need to buy this game then show it to you're parents. Seriously you are late man, still asking permission at 17, i was like you at 12, no offence.

Are you christian, if you/ parents were then i understand and agree fully because they might find games like d3/ dmc against you're religion if you are strict but if they are just trying to protect you you need to tell them to cut the umbilical cord.

[Viperguy212]

im 15 and catholic, the DMC games are some of my all time favorites, hell i go out on my own and buy my games, i get w/e i make by working and go do w/e i want w/ it, my parents arent involed unless a credit card is needed

[shizzle]

same for me near enough

[xuphorz]

my parents are major christians, so that might explain why they don't allow certain agmes

[chrisvenn]

my parents are major christians, so that might explain why they don't allow certain agmes

Then that would explain it i would think.

If i were you i would buy it and if u have to hide the game or keep it in another games case or somthing like that.

[Mourningstar]

Id buy it and tell them to grow the **** up.....god/satan are as real as santa/tooth fairy.....

[shizzle]

don't disrespect people like that.

You could either let this one go or try to convince them, or just tell them that you are old enough to make your own decisions now and that their religious belifs are not neccesarily right for you.

[criptix]

you could alway get it, stash it under your matress then when they find it say "well least its not porn" :D

[Mourningstar]

I didnt disrespect them, I simply stated the truth....and what if Xuphorz doesnt believe the way they do? Should he have to suffer for his parents beliefs?

[Cross]

i have that game on ps1


Ok U have a deal I will go buy Death Jr and trade u! And send a nice review with it. :D

[xuphorz]

no, don't do that
i won't give out my address to anyone online

pm me

[parabolee]

I just want to point out that in 10 posts you will hit your 666 posts mark Xuphorz. Just in case your parents want to tell you to stop posting after 9.

That is all.

Sorry couldn't help myself.

But it is serious. I had a too protective christian mother and now our relationship is strained because of it...

[xuphorz]

the song "the number of the beast" by iron maiden is one of my favorites, and my parents don't care. don't ask, i don't get it either

[omniosiris]

i think you should listen to your parents...mine used to be the same way, and after a while of not fighting them, and listening to and following what they said, they became way more leniant on alotta stuff

[shizzle]

i think you're avatar says a lot about what you just said ...

[Greensprout]

Why even mention you wanted the game to them?
Why not just buy it and that's it end of story..

[xuphorz]

nearest place that sells games if about 1 and a half miles, i ain't walking that far

[xuphorz]

heres what's up: i borrowed the game from a different friend (not the bad one), and showed my prents it, and let them play it. they thought it was fun :p

now i can play it all i want :D

[Mourningstar]

Im glad your parents are ok with the game.

So now are you going to buy it?

[xuphorz]

prob not, my friend said i can borrow it however long i want

[shizzle]

lol, is you're friend azureus??

[xuphorz]

who?

[criptix]

shhh sizzle or u might get in trouble for contributing to the delinquency of a MINOR :eek:

don't worry, i have Phex and ABC Torrent and use them daily
but no, i actually did borrow it from a friend, not download it :p

Now, I'm no religious man, but you sir, are just downright rude. To go and give your bullshitting opinion about another person's RELIGION has got to be one of the sickest things a person can do. I suggest you apologize instead of claiming, "I wasn't being disrespectful, I was telling the truth." I mean, honostly, you're ****ed up, and should be shot.

Well, to your last comments....

Yes, I am ****ed up and I have already been shot...so shove that up your ass...

All "religions" are based on faith...do you know the definition of the word?

Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing.
Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. See Synonyms at belief. See Synonyms at trust.
Loyalty to a person or thing; allegiance: keeping faith with one's supporters.
often Faith Christianity. The theological virtue defined as secure belief in God and a trusting acceptance of God's will.
The body of dogma of a religion: the Muslim faith.
A set of principles or beliefs.

Xuphorz should not have to suffer for his parents BELIEFS! Even if they were to be real! He has his own mind and can make his own decisions.

Fuktard....

[shizzle]

mourningstar, you are the biggest fuktard and hypocritical pratt this forum has to offer.
Worse than tapion and blingshine put together.
Prepare for shizzle rant.

Number one: yes you are f**ked up i am glad we have some agreement.

Number two: I am not suprised you have been shot the way you go around trying to impose you're own atheistical beliefs on people.

Number three: If a close friend/familly member suddenly became a devout (insert religion here) for support or anyother reason, would you tell them to grow the f**k up. Would you run into a church or stand up in mass and say, there is no god, no jesus, grow up. If you would, i hope they shoot you some more.

Number four: Is the pentagram there for show or are you a goth?

Number five: this is the worst, It shows you to be a complete n00b who has to salvage some attempt at a comeback rather than admiting you are wrong. You randomly place a definition of what faith is. Well i have a quote for you: An unsophisticated forecaster uses statistics like a drunken man uses lamposts- for support rather than illmuination: Andrew Lang.
It's not even a decent definition. "Xuphorz should not have to suffer for his parents BELIEFS! Even if they were to be real! He has his own mind and can make his own decisions." Yes, he should be able to, we all agree. What is the point of quoting the definition of faith, we all know what it means and his parents are wrong to enforce it on him. We have a problem with the fact you told his parents to "grow the f**k up"

Don't start an argument when you don't know what you are talking about.

I dont know what you mean by the first half of your sentence. For the rest, Im not raising my child as a christian, to tell the truth Im a Satanist, but I allow him to make his own choices...he enjoys bible school and I let him go...its as simple as that....


Is english your first language?

[shizzle]

i was replying to your question about what you were making it up. i don't belive you've been shot you were just using that as a come back to the other guy to shut him up. And if you are a satanist you are the biggest ponce known to man. In you're opinioin you might as well be a toothfairist so why shouldn't you be the one who has to grow the fuc*k up.

[Cap'n 1time]

ive actually grown to value mourningstar's opinion. you too shizzle. now lets not let personal opinions get in the way eh? there has been alot of opinion sharing which is.. well fine until it turns into a flame war. So i suggest we drop this before i start sharing a few of my own opinions. good?
I will include some facts though.
Satanists generally dont believe in the actual existence of satan.. just freedom of expression... While I can think of more perferable ways to show this its not my place to judge anyones ideals on religion, or how to live ones life. NO ONE HAS THAT RIGHT. So drop it, please... its immoral.

[shizzle]

what part of mourningstars opinon. All i was arguing about is the fact that he feels he has the right to tell people what is real and what isn't and that people who don't agree him should grow the fu ck up.

Why would anyone pretend to be shot?

I was 11 when it happened...in my lower abdomen...thats all the details you need to know.

Ans Satanists dont literally worship satan, or even believe in him for that matter...

Why dont YOU grow the **** up and stop arguing about insignificant little shit!


his parents to grow the fuc k up for beliving in god

NO!

I said for them to "grow up" and stop thinking stuff like video GAMES can corrupt their innocent little christian son.(no offense xyphorz)

He can play all the "evil" little games he wants to and hes NOT going to grow up smokeing crack, drinking blood and eating babies!

THATS what they need to grow up about!

[shizzle]

cough what did i just say in my post. I said it's xuphorz consern and i'll say no more about it. However it seems to me like you want argue more by bringing it all up again even though four of us just agreed to drop it. Now sit down and shut up.

I agreed to drop it, but you brought it back up again in the post where you "dropped" it.

Read the edit of my last post and you might get what i originally meant....

what are you on about, you said god/satan are about as real as the tooth fairy.

I don't care what you think anyway because you will never appologise nor understand what i am flaming you over so lets leave it.

[Mourningstar]

you said god/satan are about as real as the tooth fairy

Can you, OR ANYONE, prove that god, satan, santa, elves, the toothfairy, the easter bunny, etc. exist? If not, then they must not exist, do they?

Ive already said I should not have told them to "grow the **** up" what else do you want? I admit I was wrong by phrasing it like that.

And if you dont like it you can kiss my ****ing ass....

Either way, I have a headache, and am tired of arguing with a child on an internet forum....

Wait so killing and maiming innocent people is frowned upon here?

Damn why cant a guy rape and pillage in the french countryside these days?

Tell your parents that its just a game. You dont want the game because of its gothic like content, you want it because its a fun game. You have no intention of emulating the characters in said game (or at least dont get caught). Just remember to clean up after you've had your fun. Garbage bags, a chain saw, and a wash tub are essential. Hiding the evidence is important! Dont throw the weapon under your bed, moron! Wipe it down and then dispose of it somewhere it wont be found. May i suggest a deep river/lake or perhaps burying it in the woods a few miles from your house? An alibi is essential, make sure your friends "know" that you hung out with them all day last friday.

Ive been watching a lot of Law and Order...

You might look in to Medevil, its another platformer. Was fun on the ps1. Its coming out soon.
