Essays On Video Game Violence
Video game violence has been a popular and controversial topic for years, especially as video games become more realistic and engaging. With the introduction of virtual reality gaming, it is becoming increasingly important to understand the potential impacts of violent video games on people’s behavior. Research has shown that playing violent video games can lead to increased aggression in some players. Specifically, these gamers may exhibit more aggressive thoughts, emotions and behaviors after playing violent video games than after participating in other activities or not playing at all. Players may also be more likely to engage in hostile or defiant behavior with peers or authority figures due to their exposure to virtual violence. It is important to note however that there are many factors that contribute to an individual’s violent tendencies; exposure to media violence should not be considered the sole cause of aggressive behavior. There have been several attempts by governments around the world trying limit access to excessively violent video games for minors (under 18). These include age ratings for different types of content which helps parents determine what is appropriate for their children, as well as parental control features which allow parents greater control over what their kids can play. Additionally, many countries have implemented laws restricting certain types of content from being sold or rented out depending on local regulations and cultural values. Overall, while there is evidence suggesting a link between playing violent video games and increases in aggression levels among some players; it is difficult to draw conclusions given how complex human behavior can be influenced by multiple factors including family environment and genetics. As such, further research needs conducted before any definitive statements could made about the effects of violent video game play on people’s attitudes and behaviors outside of gaming contexts.
