I understand how videogames can make people fat (:cough:Everquest:cough but not violent. Unless the child has violent tendencies, a game cannot make them violent. I am very calm and gentle in person but I love violent games with ragdoll physics and dismemberment. Just because you play violent games doesn't mean you are violent.
That's what the fucking ESRB ratings are for, what else do they want? Don't blame the game companies, blame the parents or the crazy kids. I honestly didn't think vice city was too bad. The worse thing about it was the fountain heads.
Vice city IS bad when the parents let their 6 or 7 year old kids play it, and they actually take it literally and try to kill people. Just take that one first grader who brought his dad's gun to school and shot his classmate...
