    You're totally right about this. People who hate games or who don't enjoy them like to blame all sorts of problems on games. The same people who like sports won't blame football for violence, but they will blame games.
    If games did indeed lead to violence, considering how many COD games have sold, you'd think there'd be a LOT more killing going on in America. The fact of the matter however is that most people who enjoy games can come to a realization that what you do in a game, on a screen, isn't real. And that's what makes games so awesome.
    At the end of the day the problem is simply this: people. Stupid people. They are the ones who cause the problems, and it's their fault, not the games or the other things around them. Games don't make anyone kill anyone anymore than the sky being blue is going to make you cry for joy simply cause it's blue.

    @lkay44 11 років тому +34

    Boogie is 100% correct on this matter. Yes its highly controversial so I'll try not be to bold in my statement, but like he mentions, the real underlying reason is almost certainly because an 8 year old has not social dynamic or context in which to understand the repercussions of his actions. Moreover when he has a unorthodox family setup. Its all exasrbated by the kids likey poor psychological state I mean, no parents? This is a real tragidy like boogie says and people naivly point to video games as a scapegoat for the social and societal problems we have. There's no context as to how a game like gta could have influenced him.

    • @syntenel2283
      @syntenel2283 6 років тому +1

      Hi I'mPaul rated R? The ratings are Ec, E, E 10+, T, M, and Ao, then you have the PEGI System. Also the rating is a recommendation, not law, the parents can allow a child to play anything based on their discretion, also you don’t know if maybe it was a relatives copy or such.

    • @exespades
      @exespades 5 років тому

      @@syntenel2283 so basically what your saying is a child no matter the age is allowed to do whatever they want as long as they have parent permission?? Then that would mean its ok for a 5 year old child to watch M and R rated movies because technically its not against the law right? Its ok for a 5 year old to watch porn and look at other things a 5 year old should not be looking at because its not against the law right?? Thats what your failing to understand, games and tv shows and movies that have a higher audience raiting are NOT ment for kids it doesnt matter if you have parent permission or not, thats why so many kids are dying because people like YOU care less about child safety

      @syntenel2283 5 років тому

      Maserati_gyal What the hell? I never said a child should watch porn or anything like that, I’m referring to video games. Many parents would say it’s fine to play call of duty etc in 1st grade, my friends parents let him play violent games at that age and he isn’t fucked up. I’m not saying I would let my kid do that but in the end it is the parents decision, not the rating systems.

    There was a recent report that children that drink a lot of soda tend to be more violent. So if you put two and two together, then it means that it's not video games to blame for kids acting up so violently. It's the kids engorging themselves in soda that is making them crazy.

    Video games are still quiet young they are coming up to 40 years. Some people still don't accept them and use the stereotypes we have been given. As time goes on that generation is dying out and the new generation 20-40 year old's who have grown up with video games are now taking over so it's becoming more accepted.
