Is there a link between video games and violence?

I've never played that, but I hear it's good. hehe

Games don't kill people. People kill people.

Agreed.

I agree. It depends on you on how you take it. You already know what is wrong or right in every thing you do. It depends on what you think. You could not be violent for no reason. As for kids, we need to guide them. It is better that we avoid these kind of games or educate them.

I agree, a game is just a game, if the influence of the game causes violence then it depends on the person himself

There has been violence of all sorts in all animals in nature since the dawn of time. Blaming games is just a way to make excuses for bad parenting.

I mean... if you live in a very hostile or cruel environment where you are likely to be more hostile and you also play games, that doesn't necessarily correlate to you being more violent for playing something like an FPS. It depends on where you grow up and how you're raised too. Most of the famous serial killers and child rapists throughout history has had something traumatic happen to them in the past that trigger sociopathic behaviors.
