No, they don't.

It's people with problems that cause their playing to be grafted into their lifestyle.

Yes, of course they do.

I think I'm a hero who has to save the world, while leveling up in a field, killing strange animal hybrids, as I cycle through my weapons cache and do drive by shootings against rival gangs.

It relly depends on the type of person playing it.Like if ur an idiot who cant stop twitching and whispers "kiill" in his sleep and plays manhunt he will kill people but if ur liek me u wont be affected.

No, violent people cause violent behaviour.. im probebly one of the sickest muthafuckas out there when it comes to watching/playing gorey shit, but that doesnt mean ill go put it into practice. It's an excuse thats all it is..

Incidently, any of you guys watched that scene where the guy in Final Destination 3 is crushed by the glass panel in slow-motion? Its frinkin helarious! :)

warriors is one of the most violent games around in my opinion, but me and my brother have so much fun playing that game in co-op

seriously, we've finished it like 20 times in the past month.

best level is 11 and 12

Some of the most violent games ive played include definately Resident Evil (series), Hitman (series) Manhunt (series).. but it also depends on what people interperate as 'violent'.. cause GTA (series), F.E.A.R., The Warriors, Fatal Frame (series), and Resistance will fall in there as well.

No. Because only stupid people think that copying pixels on a screen will get them anywhere.

I don't think this is a fair poll. This is Bully-Board, of course we won't agree! Nonetheless, violent video games don't cause violence
