Nevermind, I am far too lazy to properly iron this out and figure out what we both mean. Make your own judgements. Was kinda the point of my thread...teisjm said:

Ah, thanks very much for that because, as I said, I didn't actually have any source material for that point, I was just basing it on the theory. Interesting that catharsis doesn't apply to video games as much as I thought it would.Geo88 said:
I believe the only instance were video games can contribute to amoral behavior is when the person playing the game uses it to fantasize or role play violent acts. In most if not all (my gut tells me) the problem begins long before said person can pick up a controller.
Luckily, i'm less lazy (and at work, so i get paid for sitting on my ass browsing the web, so i need something to do) so i'll explain it for yyou, at least what i meant.Sazaranthran said:
It is IMO hilalriously stupid to think, that video-games will make peopel think it's okay to go out and shoot people. (no i don't hink you're hilalriously stupid, i think people liek Jack thimpson is, just so we're clear)
Say taht in a cream-think ironically way, and you have my first post.
Awesome, that's fine. I didn't get that you were being sarcastic, and now that I get your raw opinion I understand. Good opinion btw.teisjm said:

I think you should send me 40 thousand dollars in small bills.
Don't worry, I'm from the Government.

Very good essay. When you have the time you should update it with the appropriate references, as it is obviously going to stir up different opinions.

I would do proper, meticulous research but I'm not that dedicated. I did the entire essay from memory after my psychology a-level studies, for which I no longer posess the textbook, which is why I didn't make many references. I do however possess a gross textbook and extra knowledge, and if 'demand' (as shown by the poll) increases enough I will certainly consider making either an extension essay on the same subject or a completely different essay.
E-mail this to every single knee-jerk twat-sandwich labelling the latest games as murder/porn simulators before they even play the game.
