I have to say I am disgusted by this because:

A) GameStop has been under pressure for many years now not to allow minors play M rated games--I know this because I did Holiday Help work at the store 3 different times---and these recruiters blatantly ignored it to meet a quota.

B) If GameStop alone did this, every politician in the world would be jumping down their throat---why is it ok when it is a recruiting tool? If people want to limit minors access to M rated games to parent-approved only situations, it should be across the board..

Man--I was blown away when I read this. What do you all think?

And also, what does halo have to do with the air force anyways?

Agreed man---I don't mind them trying to attract recruits but they are going after too-young of kids and doing some very questionable things in the process.

I agree, too. If the Air Force used the game to attract 18+, then okay. But this is totally irresponsible.

In a country driven by consumerism. How else is the armed forces going to get people to join. No one joins for the honor of defending your country anymore.
