Super Smash T.V.

As this is quite a controversial subject at the moment, I decided to expose you to my views upon the subject!

Over the last few years Video Games have become nearer and nearer to realistic graphics, which also means more realistic violence!  Is the more realistic violence a means at corrupting the innocent gamers brain and churning out serial killers? I think that whilst games may be quite violent, the people making these accusations really need to get things in perspective! I mean is a game of Perfect dark really more violent than watching TV? I think not! The news  is one of the most violent programmes I have seen. Most of the time the news actually shows you how the criminals actually committed the crimes and what mistakes they made! Once there was even a news documentary about breaking into cars in under 20 seconds! Now that is insane! Sure it was blurred out a bit, but anyone that really payed it any attention could easily get the gist of it. 

Apparently gun games down at the arcade also teach people to use guns! Quicken the reflexes maybe, but seriously, the weighting is different and holding a plastic gun to a screen and shooting at point blank range, is this the way to learn how to use a gun? If someone wants to learn how to use a gun would they go down to the local arcade? I think not, they would go to a rifle range, go hunting or join scouts! I think that some people just don't know what to blame for the mess that todays society is sometimes in. If people would be influenced by games in such a way, they obviously already have mental problems and wouldn't be safe anyway. Games are just an easy scapegoat for people to blame their problems on - Leave us alone!
