Moral Kombat Premieres At VGXPO

Spencer Halpin's feature-length HD documentary about violence in video games, Moral Kombat, will be premiering at this year's VideoGame Expo in Philadelphia. The documentary seeks to provide unbiased views from both sides of the battle against violent video games, despite its own trailer which projects a definite anti-video game vibe.
"I'm really pleased to screen the movie at VGXPO," said Spencer Halpin, the filmmaker behind the work, "and I envision us having a panel discussion with participants from the documentary debating the matter thoroughly."
Speaking of participants, JT himself will be on hand to possibly participate in said potential discussion, along with Lorne Lanning and N'Gai Croal, whose hair can actually read minds. Should be a real hoot! Hit the jump for details. More »

Clips: Moral Kombat, The Video Game Violence Documentary

That's not a typo, but the title of the upcoming film (at one point expected to see release in 2005) on video game violence from Spencer Halpin, brother of the Entertainment Consumers Association's Hal Halpin. Despite featuring some very alarmist soundbites—as well as giving The Silver Fox another outlet to deliver his anti-Rockstar speech promising a "Columbine on the factor of 10"—the documentary appears to have very high production values and looks to be a must-watch for those interested in the topic of violence in games.
