Anne Diamond is a videogame hating ghost from the distant future.

Just read Anne Diamond's "chilling" review on videogame violence, a couple of things bugged me...


firstly WHAT IS UP WITH THIS PICTURE?!

If you look at them closely, you can see that Dead Rising is actually floating through her right shoulder and the games in her left hand are floating THROUGH HER CHEST.

The only logical explanation is that she has been sent by Jack Thompsonbot 2000X in the year 2100 when games have been the cause of the destruction of society to eradicate all games today. But she's a ghost aswell...

...Yeah...

Also, there is a picture of some kids playing video games as (presumably) an example of videogame violence since that is what the article is about.

Anyone recognise this game:

Yes, its MARIO KART 64, which is of course the epitomy of violence is video games. HAVE YOU NOT SEEN IT?! YOU DRIVE RECKLESSLY IN A CAR AND SHOOT HARD PROJECTILES AT AN INNOCENT PLUMBER.

It was so violent I puked.


EDIT: I just realised that the course being played in the above photo is in fact Toad's Turnpike and therefore promotes reckless driving on roads. Mario Kart is more fucked up than I first thought.
