This post is on how people think that violent video games make the young youth of today also violent and lazy.'Violent video games can alter the brain in just one week and make players more aggressive, according to researchers.
A study has found that key areas in the brain suffer reduced activity, and leave it physically altered.
The findings will fuel the debate over the impact that violent games have on regular players and links to anti-social behavior.'

This article is basically saying that these violent video games such as Grand Theft Auto alter the brain to make youths who play it more aggressive.
I do not agree with this because as I am a gamer i think the reality of these games are ridiculous, they are nothing like real life, any educated youth can see this, but i do slightly agree with the accusation that these games make you lazy, i agree because some people would get into the game a bit to much sitting there for hours just playing the same game.
This article agrees with me that they don't make people aggressive.
'Just look at me. I'm a 13 year old geek who has never beaten any one up, I don't swear(much), I have good grades (Acedemic awards galore), I study computer programming and build robots in my spare time, etc., etc.. And when I'm not doing any of these things, I'm playing an EXTREMELY violent game (Total Annihilation, Half-Life, Worms Armageddon, and Diablo are among my favourites.) I think that violent games calm me down when I'm angry rather than MaKe me angry. I just imagine my enemies inside that Arm Commander suit, and then I blow it away. All of a sudden, I feel as if they really were gone, and with them, my troubles. It feels good, so I wake myself out of my reverie and try and make my problems go away (without the killing. That would just give me bigger problems in real life.).'
Very fantastic! <3 xx
