Parappa creator wants less violence in video games

The man behind the classic Parrappa the Rapper has revealed that he would like to see a reduction in video games that feature people hurting others with knives and guns. He pointed to the success of music and family games as proof that violence isn't really needed.

Kick and punch may be all in the mind, but Parappa the Rapper creator Masaya Matsuura doesn't want so much of it in videogames. Speaking with Joystiq, the man responsible for Major Minor's Majestic March views videogame violence as a problem that needs to be stamped out.

"Reducing the volume of games that involve hurting people with knives and guns," said Matsuura, when asked if there was one videogame problem he could instantly solve. "The recent success of music games and also family games for the Wii springs to mind. Undoubtedly there are other possibilities out there that are as yet undiscovered."
