I look forward to this fascinating new avenue of thought regarding the possible relationship between violence in video games affecting the judgement of the people who play them.

There was a segment on MSNBC about video game violence last week... the clip montage included WCW Backstage Assault and War Gods.

Remember after playing Grand Theft Auto, how you were completely trained to use real firearms? The money I've saved by not going to a shooting range, I can now use to buy more rounds of ammo to kill cops and prostitutes!

As for that dude's question in the show, why make games where you take down 'leaders' in saving us?

Because it's fun to play the badguy, esp. when you cant do it in real life.

Fucking idiots, at least Doug Lowenstein set it straight.

And Why the hell doesnt anyone blame the parents? for gods sakes, it's bad parenting.

argh, shows like this make me want to go kill someone - I'll sue 60 minutes.

Fuck that blame the bullets....

When you really break it down...it's all the fault of the electro-magnetic interactions. If it werent for them the bullet would likely just zip right through no harm done.

Well, that's not fair. Those games would make anybody turn violent.

I love the whole argument that violent video games train killers. By that logic there'd be a plague of pasty white overweight teenagers in the NFL from all the madden and some fat star trek nerd that lived in his parent's basement would be the greatest military strategist in the whole world.
