More people killed in Halo 3 than alive on Planet Earth

Page 2 of 2 My favourite, and yes I have to admit that since discovering the Bungie site I have developed a habitual need to watch the numbers scroll by, are the detailed enemy kill counts. 135,012 Wraiths destroyed, 79,555 banshees downed, 585,645 Grunt Specialists killed and 767,118 Brute Leaders defeated. My worry, now that news of these figures and that truly astonishing total kill count has leaked out into the real world, is that those who would burn all video games will use it to further their cause. There is no doubt in my mind that video games like Halo 3 are great entertainment, and just a logical progression from playing cowboys and indians with home made bows and very dangerous stick arrows as many of us old timers used to do. However, the graphical nature of the on-screen violence and the total removal from the real world consequences of unleashing it, have to at least leave food for thought. Especially with so many aliens being hurt. Please enable JavaScript in your browser to post your comment!
