I'm sick of hearing people think video games cause violence

[DrunkenDeath]

might depend if they ave mental problems, like easilyinfluencedbystuff syndrom or woteve da medical term is... i dont play games so dont kno but cant imagin playin a game where u shoot every1 who runs past, then go outside n kill a jogger coz he ran past me

we're not talking about disabilities. we're talking about hazardous youth. the cause of so many suicides and school shootings.

video games is not an influence in any shape or form.

Maybe not to you but I'm sure there are kids out there who are influenced by the games they play and the movies they watch.

That's not to say that I hate violent games, I love them but I can see were they could have a negative impact.

Yaeh,i think they do to a certain degree as well. Ofcourse not to everyone of them.

funny this topics up cuz i was just talkin about how playin video games keeps me from wanting to kill someone. good way to get the aggresion out, like playing GTA. being able to go around killing people in the game keeps me from pullin it off in real life

[drasticlyhated]

i dont think it can in some cases but games to some ppl are like music it inspires them to do somthing

^^ That's also another way to look at it. People have different ways of venting shit out. Would you rather them shoot people in real life, or shoot people in a game? So that's a positive for gaming

I would do it on destroy all humans and fable...


yes, fuck the bastards who say video games is a waste of time
