Well you would be surprised. I reckon violent video games have alot to do with teenage crime and voilence I would say.
Slightly going off topic but the 9/11 terrorists used flight simulator to practise flying the planes into the twin towers etc.. Like the point I'm trying to make is that some use it to plot crimes etc...
But I think a few people think its okay to mimic stuff they play in video games into real life situations, and I think theres a heavy influence from it.

If you're capable of murder then the problem doesn't lie with a video game, it's because your a psycho (not you personall
). If it's possible to be influenced by something then there would be violence en mass since games like GTA sold millions. Games are used as a scapegoat and an excuse for crime. We should stop with excuses and punish the people who commit these crimes.
How about films like Saw, or older films such as I spit on your grave or Clock Work Orange which was a lot more violent then any videogame I've ever played.
