Grand Theft Auto IV Meets Politics: Barack Obama’s view of GTA 4

You have only got to play a game of Call of Duty 4 and you will hear kids talking on the chat, now they are not meant to be on that game and many others, but they do as the parents do not monitor them, or do not mind. Now that Grand Theft Auto IV has been released on the Sony PS3 and Xbox 360, you got to think about children playing a game meant for ages 18+.

The fact is they will be and this is an issue that has also been recently talked about by the possible next United States President, Barack Obama. Barack made the claim during a speech in Indiana, he said, “Now, this isn’t intended for kids, although I promise you there are kids who are playing it, but these video games are raising our kids”.

He is right, as kids today play video games many hours per week, but it’s the parents responsibility to make sure the games being played educate our children as well as give them fun. Personally, I use brain-training games and other similar games for my children, these very games have helped my children improve massively in school. Although they still have fun playing other games, but I can assure you, these games do not include strippers and prostitutes like in GTA 4.

Barack Obama said that Americans need to encourage their children to switch the TV off and focus on doing well in school, although my opinion is games can help children, if they are the correct ones. It’s all about what you feed the minds of the future.

Gordon Ramsay the best for mayor of london
A brand new survey recently put forward claims that the hard swearing chef Gordon Ramsay is the top choice for most Londoners if they could have any high-profile personality in the running for mayor.

This is why we ask “Which celebrity would be a good Mayor of London? Londoners were asked if they could choose a celebrity as a high-profile face to fun for Mayor, and here are the results.
31% of Londoners chose Gordon Ramsey with 14% was David Walliams of Little Britain and Prince Harry got a cool 13%.

Other celebrities like Hugh Grant got 7%, Kelly Osbourne 7%, David Beckham 7%, Kate Moss 4% and Madonna 3%.

The survey of 1,000 registered voters in the capital was commissioned by the online betting exchange, Betfair. Ken Livingstone is considered by Londoners to be the more trustworthy of the two with a cool 26% of people believing in him to be more likely to keep promises in his election; Boris Johnson got only 17%.

Here is the real candidates standing for Mayor of London –

• Sian Berry – Green Party
• Gerard Batten – UK Independence Party
• Boris Johnson – Conservative Party
• Alan Craig – Christian Peoples Alliance and Christian Party
• Ken Livingstone – Labour Party
• Matt O’Connor – English Democrats
• Winston McKenzie – Independent

Virgin Mobile uses Spitzer scandal for ad campaign
Eliot Spitzer ha had a bad week after being humiliated in the U.S. Press; well it seems as if his trouble is going to come back and haughty him again. Virgin Mobile is to run the above ad into a marketing campaign; the ad will feature in Toronto newspapers.

The subtext in the ad will say “At Virgin Mobile, you’re more than just a number. When you call us we’ll treat you like a person, not a client. Whether you’re #9 or #900, you’ll get hooked up with somebody who’ll finally treat you just how you want to be treated.”

This will not go down well with Spitzer, and it will only be a matter of time before he retaliates.
