Much of our interests, when we were kids that carried over into adulthood, were influenced by action movies and video games. The same is true for the next generation, whether we like it or not and for better or for worse. Josh and Drew debate on the responsibility developers and directors have in bringing realism to the entertainment that is shaping the minds of the next generation.
