How is it that games of today mostly seem to feature death and destruction? Examples are Lazerquest, Paintball and of course, most of the new computer games for kids!....and yet, society has over the past two decades, made it unacceptable for children to play "cowboys and Indians" "British Bulldog" or any of the old "War games" Even the action man dolls are frowned upon.

Maybe it is a reaction from our children as they grow into adulthood because they have missed out on "reality" games as kids?
