Just seen this on New24.

Featured the usual anti-game sensationalism beloved by the media.


I think I'm with Sony on this one


- It's a GAME.

- It's just fantasy, just entertainment.

- It's in the future & you battle ALIENS.

- It's a PEGI-18 certificate... so who cares if it's "violent"...it's not meant for kids.
