I am also intrigued by the 1% who don't want video games set in a sports stadium - this might be a concern FIFA and PES players).
There are, I have heard, some people who cannot resist a red rag. I do not know any of these people personally, of course. Nor have I met anyone who knows them.
That response was put there for those people. I would not be intrigued that they selected it.
core if you were to put games in ya gran parents houses what sort of game would it be if it was a game that was in my granmas house it would have to be a coleteors game ware you find old things and have to work out how thay work to get to the next stage a bit like Tomb Raide if you no what i mean.
Of course, a game needn't be violent. There are a number of sports games that would work well in a sports stadium. ^_^ The Olympics for instance.
I was gonna vote for Granma's house, as I thought it would be boring. =) But Phil's comment has ignited the imagination.
What fun could we all have in Granma's house?
P.S. Just read the other coments regarding the sports stadium - I think it's the context of the question, - the Church V.S. Sony news stories are all fresh in our minds, indeed, I visited the pole after reading one such story on Spong, so it's only natural our minds are thinking about the sensitivity of violent content when we vote. A kinda Darren Brown trick. ;-)

Seriously though, this assumption based on a passing context is exactly what the mainstream media play on as well: "videogame = violent videogame". So, it's interesting that - even without a temporal context - the mainstream can now simply say "videogame" and the dogs of middle England start slavering at the mouth.
It's also a bit worrying that gamers don't read the question and leap to the same conclusion given the same assumption of context - you get the media you deserve I guess.
I would have voted Grandma's house, on the grounds they've both been dead for 20 years.
However, I can't even find the poll.
Pass me a white stick and I'll see what I can do. Or maybe not...
Anyway, speaking as an Animist practitioner of Unorthodox Voodoo, I can't see why anywhere shouldn't be a place of worship. The possible exception being the Emirates Stadium.

Though I believe a place of worship shouldn't feature on a rational planet.
