Willetta Munhall: zelda ocarina of time + ff7! I love those games! (I was 7-8) Then I went off games for a bit, playing them but not as much because I had high expectations for amazing rpgs and no other game would do. So then Kingdom hearts came along, which in my eyes when I was younger was the ideal video for a girl like me. It even had disney princess. That's when I was nine years old and ever since then I'd go crazy for a good rpg. I also LOVED pokemon blue (I had that 1 too, even though I picked charamander in the beginning XD) When the DS came out I almost cried because you can't fit the gameboy games into them! =[ So I was the only kid using a gameboy advance when everyone else was using DSs XD xoxoxoxox...Show more

Torri Tippey: here u go http://www.pbs.org/kcts/videogamerevolution/impact...http://mentalhealth.about.com/cs/familyresources/a...penn state and universty of chicagohttp://www.psu.edu/dept/medialab/research/vgviolen...culturalpolicy.uchicago.edu/conf2001/papers/walsh.html Jack Thompson also had lawsuits for gta and tried to blame video games on the Virginia tech shooting, no video games were found. Cho oddly enough played “counterstrike” in high school but by the time he got to Tech didn’t play “halo” with the other guys in his dorm and no video game system or games were found in his room. Violent video games don’t cause violent people a lot of things are easier with scape goat VTech was tragic but cho had a long history of mental illness .I have heard studies that the fact he didn’t play games show anti social behavior. Video games have become like sports in sort of a male ritual growing up .If u want to see a link in the violence we see now ,look at the ec! onomy not just 2008 look from 1980 -present .Wages haven’t ! gone up that much {median income 1980 (18,00) 2008 (53,000)} cost of living has sky rocketed in some parts of the country were I live in Washington dc {home prices 1980 (77,000) 2008 (340,000)} {averge new cars 1980 (5,000) 2008(22,000)} most families went to two working parents most of my friends were fellow latch key kids look at divorce rates what do most families fight about look at the jobs America used to produce steel coal cars lumber we still do but at a fraction of what we used to those jobs are gone now so we replaced it in the economy do you know what America produces now DEBT the biggest chunk of our economy relies on F.I.R.E finance insurance real estate Surcharges on credit cards high interest rates over valued homes anytime a politician points his finger at a video game I point my finger back because video games gave me and my friends something to do while our parents worked until 6 just to get by...Show more

Shane Getler: video game violence has n! othing to do with real life violence. kids commit violent crimes cause they come from violent homes and cause of bullies and their own problems. A man named jack thompson blamed columbine on the video game doom. he said it taught them how to shoot and reload weapons. real life doesnt have an o button or triangle on a gun 2 shoot it. those kids were messed up and needed help. doom didnt cause it, their parents and peers caused it. Video games dont cause violence, it comes from being bullied, picked on, abusive parents, and drugs. Violence has nothing 2 do with video games....Show more
