| __________________________________ [Jun 21,2005 11:04am - Paulll ""] OK im getting sick of these games that just glorify crime too. I dont care go ahead and put it out who cares? But its just gonna be the same as all the other ones like this ,it just gets dull. Besides if they are so worried about the media go check mtv or the radio. The popular music now a days teaches the youth that its cool to be a gangster or a criminal. Look at 50 cent and all those rejects on tv with no talent. I just hate walking down the street and seeing a group of suburban kids trying to act like 50 cent with that thugged out attitude. I wish more people would just try being themselves and not acting like what everyone else thinks is cool. BUt then again who knows 25 to life might make shooting people be as cool as it was when doom first came out, doubtful though. |

Instead of pretending these problems don't exist we should acknowledge the problems and address them. |

| _________________________________ [Jun 21,2005 3:56pm - soloman ""] WASHINGTON - Playing violent video games like Doom, Wolfenstein 3D or Mortal Kombat can increase a person's aggressive thoughts, feelings and behavior both in laboratory settings and in actual life, according to two studies appearing in the April issue of the American Psychological Association's (APA) Journal of Personality and Social Psychology. Furthermore, violent video games may be more harmful than violent television and movies because they are interactive, very engrossing and require the player to identify with the aggressor, say the researchers. |

I got the zapper at the same time. My mom said to me, "Now remember son, the ducks you are shooting in this game are for food. You don't shoot animals just for sport. You are hunting these ducks to feed your family. Okay?" |
