Title: Is our culture in decline? This game suggests an answer.
Review: About 25 years ago, director David Cronenberg was asked if he thought his grandchildren would enjoy his movies. He replied, "I doubt if I will even recognize my grandchildren as human beings." He was referring to the speed with which communication technologies were changing our values. The popularity of Grand Theft Auto underscores his prescience. This game bears out the notion that innocence is a thing of the past in our culture, even for children. (And PLEASE don't tell me this game isn't directed at adolescent boys.) Violence has a place in entertainment if it's depicted honestly, not gratuitously as it is in GTA-3. Those who suggest that pandering to the darkest male adolescent fantasies has no consequences probably think gansta rap is harmless self-expression, too. I suggest they read the newspapers.
