Murder Simulators: Difference between revisions

* Parodied in an episode of ''[[King of the Hill]]'' when two game developers introduce the ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' clone ''Pro-Pain'' as a [[Take That]] to Hank Hill. Hank and Buck Strickland soon take up the role of indignant [[Moral Guardians]] and Hank is soon tasked with finding copyright infringement in the game in order to take them to court; the whole Moral Guardian plot is then thoroughly [[Subverted Trope|subverted]] and then turns into [[An Aesop]] about game addiction.

** Interestingly, Hank begins to enjoy the game when he tries to ''avoid'' killing anyone or causing damage, just like [[Real Life]] pacifist runs and the [[Deus Ex]] example above.

* Parodied in [[Code Monkeys]], with Dave programs an Atari game where the main character has to impress Jodie Foster. One of the objectives is to assassinate President "Ray-gun." Three guesses as to what happens next.
