Story: Do video games make children violent?
Posted by: Christie (Tuesday 26 April 2005, 6:20 PM)
Dear to all the idiots that believe that video games make people kill in real life,
I've been playing violent video games since I was I got my first game system ever since I first was shown DOOM ( I was about 8 0r 10 yrs. old and now I'm almost 20) and I have NEVER EVER felt like that I've wanted to go outside and kill someone with a shotgun or any other weapon. Instead of feeling like I want to go out and kill someone in real life when I play a video game for instance say Halo 1&2 for XBOX it doesn't make me feel like I want to go kill someone it actually gets rid of all my stress and anger that I've had that day and makes me feel better not because I've just killed someone but because I've just found a way to get rid on my problems without paying any shrink or any other doctor and paying them hundreds of dollars for something that I could do for free.Ine example is one time I was playing Turok and I put the controller down for one second (without pausing game) and when I came back I pick up the controller and some dinosaur creature just in front on my screen and scared my and because of reflex in my finger I shot him with my shotgun that I had with explosive shells inside of it and when I shot him all of his limbs and his head were blown off of his torso and his head just stayed in mid air for a few seconds and squirted out blood and I thought that was the best thing I've ever seen and I've wanted to see if I could do that again but only in the video game and NOT in real life. Sincerly,Christie
