Author Topic: Do violent video games lead to behavior problems?  (Read 1333 times)

When I play a videogame I never think to myself "MURDER MURDER YAY," I'm usually problem solving in a game, and using strategies mostly. What do you guys think?

there were bad children before violent video games and the percentage hasn't raised

I don't play very violent games but they can be a stress outlet as much as they can create lasting impressions on younger kids.

When the batstuff handicapped people at my school get a new, violent game, (Saints row the third) they loving go around humping and loving pretending to have carrot swords and stuff, they are only 11 too.

Happy I don't go to school anymore

I basically grew up with different violent games, although my Mom didn't really allow me to play that many until I was about 10-11.

actually i'm pretty well behaved and i play a bunch of violent video games

a few of them with my parents

yes because we have had multiple people on this forum be influenced by the horribleness of videogames

coolio for one got really pissed and started screaming at everyone on steam because he got his games taken away

also he resorted to pirating for his "vidya game addicition"

in all seriousness, no.

i usually think "oh i got to complete this objective, i guess the easiest way is to mow down all these strings of ones and zeros to get there"

i play space marine for hours on end and im not a murderer :u

♫ you get the beeeessst of both worlds ♪

you'd have to be pretty dumb to go on violent sprees in real life just because of a video game you played.

yeah you can. triple changers have multiple altmodes, silly!

I'm gonna say yes and no.

First, kids are influenced, by the fact that it's "cool", which lead kids to copying lines from the game, which are obviously gonna be profanity of some sort. If you want to take it on more seriously, there HAS been school shootings where violent video games were involved. These are one of the main reasons why ESRB put ratings on video games. Too bad there are a majority of parents in the world who just ignore them because "they love their child". Hell, I wasn't allowed to play M-rated games until I hit 10 years old, when I was mature enough to not to knock off a flower pot on purpose. Teens and adults are usually okay with violence because they have more maturity than children. Also, people tend to get fustrated playing difficult video games, that they get so much rage that they start a killing spree or something, but, it's only a child. Where is he gonna get loaded 9mm?

Also, it's mostly not gonna happen to some kids because either they are confused as forget or are actually MATURE enough to realize "this is a bad idea" and drop off the "say forget stuff rooster in school!!!" or "murder the nearest person!!!!!!". Also, there are parents that are both smart and loving to their child that they avoid their children into touching games with too much violence in it. Besides
you'd have to be pretty dumb to go on violent sprees in real life just because of a video game you played.

In all fairness, it depends on who is the controller.
