Do Video Games Trigger Off More Violence?

[John Malkovich]

First of all, the majority of surveys that were carried out to clarify
this hot issue do not show that video games have adverse effects on
our psyche and are more dangerous, than, for instance, films, books or
some typical role games that children play outside. Boys have always
enjoyed aggressive games like imitating a police pursuit or a war
battle, but it doesn’t mean that they do not see the boundaries
between the real world and the game world.What is more, according to
Patrick Kierkegaard of the University of Essex, England, there is no
evident connection between violence statistics figures and the
appearance of video games. He claimed that considering soaring sales
of video games, the violence figures should also be rocketing, but
violence, especially among the young, has decreased. The opponents of
the video games might remind us of the campus shootings in the USA,
the initiators of which were gamers. However, there is no evidence to
suggest that video games were the main factor that affected their
mental stability and urged them to commit those outrageous crimes.
Moreover, the overwhelming majority of young game players are law-
abiding citizens.
Actually this is a writemypapers.org feedback but I absolutely agree
with this opinion.
