Doom, shortly after its release. I later found out that my father played it every night from then on.

Parents were JWs. I played everything from E.V.O search for eden to chrono trigger.

Parents let me play everything from Duke3D to Doom. As long as I was killing "aliens" and not human beings. But that didn't stop me from playing wolfenstein. I remember a friend of mine brought Warcraft 2 over and asked if it was too violent after killing an Orc. I said it was fine even though it wasnt.

The only game they had a problem with was Casper because it played an unskippable cutscene with creepy laughter and I couldn't shut the game off. They claimed the game was satanic and told me not to play it again

Growing up my parents never had an issue with any of the games I played. My dad used to have most of his meetings at a coffee shop/internet cafe owned by a friend of his, and I would frequently go along just to have one of the delicious muffins they made and hang out. One of the employees installed his copy of Grand Theft Auto on one of their machines shortly after it was released, and I sat there playing it for a couple of hours completely enthralled until my dad came over and spent probably half an hour playing it himself. We immediately drove to CompUSA and bought a copy. Fast forward a few years and Vice City had just come out. Remembering how much my dad enjoyed the original GTA I showed the game to him thinking he would be just as impressed with it as I was, but instead he proceeded to bitch and moan about how violent the game was. While I was too old for him to 'forbid' me to play it by then it was obvious that he really wanted to. I have no idea why he hated that game so much when he'd loved the first two.

My mom, being somewhat christian, didn't let me borrow an older friend's game. He wanted me to try it out but she didn't like it. It was a game called "Devil crash." Too satanic.

My parents never actively disapproved of any games. It's likely that I've played one or two porn games that they'd have a problem with... like that one .SWF (probably not "retro"??) with the sexy anime girl restrained in a dungeon or something and you can stomp on her or stick needles in her or whatever until she dies. That one was a little too much for me actually. (Only a little though.) Regardless, that's how far I have to go to think of something that might have motivated them to set limits for me.

Maaaaybe my dad would have been uncomfortable with some devil-themed games, like Demon's Crest or Diablo. But he didn't engage closely enough with my gaming for that to ever come up. Mom certainly wouldn't have minded much (if at all); she was into horror movies and stuff.

I got some comments of disapproval about maybe a few games but don't remember being banned from anything. Wasn't until gen6 though. Once I had them and had seen it not much point taking it away (plus movies show worse) but think there was some regret after I got a copy of DOA Xtreme. Did fucking well as a kid in that regard.
It was pretty much anything goes for local multiplayer though because it was more or less family time for us. There were some more family friendly things like Worms but also some that probably really weren't appropriate when I was young (Dead or Alive). I think it's very different when you're playing with parents/siblings though and can have some context, be taught what is and isn't okay etc.

My mother never outright banned me from playing anything as far as I can recall, but I remember she really didn't like it when I was playing Final Fight and she saw Haggar beating on Poison, feeling it was glorifying hitting women.

It really is goofy as hell. It's funny that it got the reputation that it did when the violence really is absolutely Bugs Bunny tier, only they add some drops of blood, crudely depicted decapitations, and some pretty silly use of skeletons.

The first couple of Harry Potter books are ok children's stories, you read them when you're eight and the story works, you don't examine the world very critically, it's fine. It falls apart when Rowling tries to turn them into young adult novels because she can't really write on that level, and the previous books aren't a viable foundation for that either (because they were written to be whimsical children's books), so it really makes the story, characters, and setting come off as mostly stupid when she tried framing them in a more mature way.

Incidentally, Pokémon never did stop being for children and young teens, which is probably why it has had a pretty consistent presence and hasn't gone off a cliff in terms of quality. On the other hand it has also been spinning its wheels for 20+ years and done little that's really new, so if you're invested in it for the long term, it either feels rather stagnant, or you find its predictable formula comforting, possibly due to aspergers.

Eventually and only once. Never when I was a kid, for good reason. Yeah it was bad. He built dog runs and trained them and also went into the tunnels. It's his words "killed a lot of people". Also friendly fire accidentally annihilated a group of his Vietnamese friends. He said it was common that regular Vietnamese and Americans would be friends in certain
areas.
My dad laughed a mocking laugh when he learned that such a game even existed, but my mother was pissed at Nintendo. Yes, they didn't make the game, but you know moms.

Different strokes for different folks, I suppose. Some people were on base or did other support roles and never got close to the killing, some did but maybe it happened in less traumatic ways. Then I guess everyone coped differently about it.

I was allowed to watch pretty much everything from Terminator to robocop.

The only things that were off limits were films with ghosts and witchcraft. Intially I was not allowed to play Pokemon, yugioh or watch power rangers. Because there seen as witchcraft, violent and satanic. But eventually I was allowed to do these things. My parents were pretty chill.

The turning point was when Pirates of the Caribbean came out. My parents were intially hesitant to allow me to watch the film because of the witchcraft and undead. My friends were really good friends with a geriatric woman that was a devout follower. But she had a daughter who was around my parents that wasnt really that keen on the rules. She convinced my parents pirates of the caribbean is fun and to just make an exception for it.

I was allowed to watch all the violent movies I wanted, as long as I never swore IRL and never became a satanist or an SJW. I always had to explain how I was acting selfish and aggressive in games, because if they saw me being helpful or caring about people, it was banned. For example, I was allowed to play Duke Nukem, but Doom was off limits because my Dad thought by killing demons, I was helping sinners escape punishment.

They didn't use the word SJW, obviously, but basically my brother came out when I was young, and were hypervigilant about anything that might suggest I was going to be a fruit like him. I turned out to be a tranny, so joke's on them.

I also wasn't allowed to watch the Simpsons because my dad was afraid it would turn me into a smartassed rebel. Which worked perfectly, as you can surely tell.

This was the first game I owned ever and I remember my parents said I could play any game on it except for Shinobi (strangely they didn't seem to care about Golden Axe or Streets of Rage I think they just assumed a ninja game must have blood and gore in it) and if I played it when they weren't home they didn't know.

Never had many video game-related problems at home (except for my Baptist grandmother and Spyro of all things, but she was an emotional mess anyway), but I remember visiting a friend that had GTA 2 for Playstation when he was nine. I think it might have actually belonged to his brother, but all I remember is that his mom only allowed us to play it if we promised to not steal any cars or use any weapons. Even back then that rule felt weird and half-assed, and as soon as she stepped out for groceries we started stealing taxis and starting fires like nothing had happened.

My parents wouldn't let me own a console in the 90s. None of my friends were PC gamers. Back then PC gaming was (even more) expensive and constantly changing. Unless you were a rich kid you generally didn't have the ability to play the newest games. so I just bought racing games, especially if it had a Dodge Viper on the cover. I remember my parents almost let me get Half Life once because my mom thought the box art looked cool and felt the glasses sporting main character was non threatening, but then she read the back of the box right before getting to the counter. I must have been 8 or 9, which would have been kind of hilarious if I experienced all the gibs and scientist massacring that game had to offer at that age.

Pic related was the first game I really wanted that my parents were having none of. After Vice City came out I kept telling them. "GTA3 is old news, Vice city is the really bad one. It lets you kill the president. GTA3 isn't that bad, let me get it" Finally they broke down

What? Why? Shouldn't good and upstanding behavior be rewarded? There's such a thing as helping others at too high expense of yourself or in a way that's bad and unhealthy, but how many games have you really do that?

>For example, I was allowed to play Duke Nukem, but Doom was off limits because my Dad thought by killing demons, I was helping sinners escape punishment.
That doesn't even make any sense, the demons in Doom aren't minding their own business in hell and punishing already dead sinners, they're attacking mankind and murdering people indiscriminately, regardless of if they're sinners.

They kicked your cousin out over a video game? Or was there more to it?

Same. My mother never gave a fuck about the games I play. She once saw me play Diablo 1, declared she doesn't get it and moved on. But then, she herself was playing some hardcore Amiga games when I was a 3 or 4, so there is that.

In theory I was allowed to play whatever I wanted, but my dad was an alcoholic christian so every once in a while he'd go on an arbitrary tirade and take away some game that was usually mild. For example, one day he was hammered and came in my room to find me playing Road Rash 3D, which is pretty tame. He then gathered up all my games and said he was going to keep everything M rated until I was 18 (Keep in mind Road Rash 3D is rated T). When he sobered up he forgot about doing it, but weird shit like that would happen out of nowhere. I mean shit, I grew up on Doom and Duke Nukem 3D, and he played and loved survival horror games like Resident Evil, he wanted me to play those with him. I don't know, doesn't make much sense.

One day my older brother came home with Command and Conquer: Red Alert that he got from a friend.
We were sitting in the computer room playing it when our aunt came over to visit. After a few minutes Mom walked into the room to tell us to come out and say hello.
She saw the screen and got so mad.

"You should feel ashamed, your aunt came over to visit you and you're in here playing war computer games."
"Your grandpa didn't fight in a war so you could sit around and play violent games."
"What would Jesus think of you playing games like this?"

is this a thinly veiled lewd retro games thread?

Yep! Drug trading, cop killing, car jacking, gang wars, kidnapping and all kinds of nefarious acts didn't catch my parents' attention but turning people into hot-dogs was too much, especially for my mom who worked at butcher's at the time.

Speaking of more games, my dad got real pissed at me after he saw me performing a headshot-only multi kill with a Ripper in Unreal Tournament. Cue the usual bullshit talking about how this game will turn me into a mass murderer or some shit.

My parents are similar except for Harry Potter, for obvious reasons
I was reading the first book and I remember being really into it, but then a meeting happened and now it was evil

UNTIL my dad eventually saw the first movie, because there wasn't anything else, thought it looked really neat, and then opened the door for things so long as they weren't clearly demonic. He didn't react nicely to the Ghostrider movie having the Devil onscreen.

But I love my parents, and I support them and they're well. I'm gonna hit this dab and be thankful they weren't ever one of THOSE, the chatty churchgoers that pried into everyone's business.

Ungrateful little shits not saying hello to your Aunt.

She didn't confiscate it though, did she?

They would see the box and if it was rated M they wouldny buy the game. I bought with my money resident evil II and when they catched me and saw the cd box i just said it was my cousin's game and i had borrowed it. My cousin had to keep the game and i would secretly play it.

It was supposed to be our Christmas present in ‘99 but my mom saw it ahead of time and took it away from my Dad. We didn’t play it until 2007
