There would be less problems with "videogames causing violence" if parents would listen to the rating on the cover of the game. I'm not saying base what your child plays solely off of age, but decide if they're mature enough for an M game at 12 tears of age.

I'd say it all depends on the maturity of the player. Introducing a 5 year old to overly excessive violence could do the trick. I'm personally not desensitized to te world but O can't speak for everyone.

Yeah that's why I typed it like that. I've been doing everything from stomping on Goombas in Mario, to poisoning aliens and making them puke up their insides in Turok since I was 10 and I'm far from violent. Having one of my favorite hobbies blamed for people shooting up schools and malls legitamately pisses me off though.
