My first real debate thread.

[Locke.]

I'd say they could definitely put ideas in peoples head, but they've gotta be pretty abnormal to carry them out anyway.

Talking about murder and torture an stuff by the way, not like robbing a shop or whatever.

[Zippy]

no yes no yes no yes

oh I don't know

no....no, yes. Ok then no.

[KG.]

They could play a big part in how someone goes about committing a certain crime, ie. like Locke said, putting certain ideas into people's heads etc. but those people that do try and recreate something they've seen in a game have to be pretty ****ed in the head in the first place.

[Mr XcX]

I believe they do cause violence.

It created DRIVE BY shootings in the USA because of GTA.

An increase in gangs etc.

But I would argue that alot of people who are vulnerable will be brain washed by playing games like resident evil etc. Then it will cause them to become killers without them knowing what they where doing.

urm, Im pretty sure violent gangs were very prevalent long before violent video games were around. Think youre being a bit naive.

drive by shootings are about rivalries and revenge not video games.

I know what I am talking about.

Drive by shootings where caused by GTA.

Also, Manhunter caused many murders.

[BB_Eye]

No, lack of role models, education and opportunities do.

Video game publishers have nothing to apologise for.

isnt that a gay dating site?

[Mr XcX]

If anyone is below 18 on this site I want to ask Y'all if your parents have bought you any of these sick twisted games.

Because the parents are to blame too,

I think that is what the game is called.

It encouraged people to murder others.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

no

violence is videogames should never be taken seriously because its so ridiculously OTT

like in new vegas when you shoot somebody in the foot and their head explodes

videogame violence is amazing

[Doogle]

Mum let me have Black Ops & Modern Warfare 2, my ONLY games that are above my age limit.

Everyone else I know...just about every game they own is 15/18+ but my mum brought me up well, and she explained she didn't want me playing them because they influence people to do things like murder/steal etc., but she felt I was sensible enough by the age of 13 to not be influenced by any of these things, as they are only games at the end of the day.

But my mum is definitely not a bad parent for letting me have the game, if I went around killing people, I'd only have myself to blame.

[Zippy]

Im not a gamer, thankgod

all that wasted time. I waste enough at this sh!thole.

[Vicky.]

I dont think so.

People who do stuff like that just like to blame it on something

But give GTA4 to a 12 year old
and then you are going very wrong.


GTA4 is Bliss
I can shoot a Fat Cop in the back of his head
get a car and escape.


It is Rated 18
but some mothers do not care.

You are the first FM to make me actually laugh

I agree. People who play these games need to find something more better to do in their time.

Like Study for a good education!

I agree with your view here.

If people find these games "Bliss" then give them to your child at the age of 18

Yes, but people who are in that mind frame may have not gone off to kill people had these games not been created.

13 is still pretty young. IMO.
