Studying the Effects of Playing Violent Video Games
This
article mainly tells us that to some people, playing violent video game like
Call of Duty, Killzone 3, and Battlefield 3 can cause side effects such as
rage. Its okay to enjoy playing violent video games, but it could also sometimes
lead to death and violent behavior. The behavior of the player depends on the
video game they are playing like a first person shooter the are playing as a
killer, if they are playing a third person game they are playing as the
character, they are more likely to behave rudely and aggressively when they
play as a violent character. Lastly, when playing any violent video game they
are rewarded for killing the bad guy, but then when you transfer it into real
life when killing someone you don’t get rewarded with points or a medal; they
just killed an innocent person for nothing.
Different ways violence is shown is by young kids playing
with toy guns like water guns and pointing them at there friends, who knows if
it was a real gun and they were pointing at there friend. Violence is often
shown in competitive sports, media, song lyrics and computer games. It is okay
to play violent video games most of the time, but when kids play hours and hours
of violent video games they can sometimes turn into psycho-path killers. Young
kids ages 7-10 are most likely to play violent video games because once they see
an advertisement for the game, they start to beg for it and then there parents
get it for them. Young kids should not be aloud to play these types of games
because then they can ruin there life or someone else’s.
In conclusion, the article “Studying the effects of playing
violent video games” talks about playing too much of violent video games can
cause rude behavior, and can make people want to kill people in real life.
This problem can be solved, when playing a violent video game like Call of Duty,
once you get killed turn off the TV, walk away and stop playing the game for
the rest of the day. That makes the player feel like the people who would die
in real life if they were someone with a gun trying to kill as many people as
they can to win. This is why people have the decision to keep playing violent
video games and maybe eventually start to kill people in real life or to play
the game until they die and turn of the TV and walk away.
