violence in games and real life - 09-28-2007, 07:12 PM

ive read an interesting debate the other day which had an input from the boss of the BBFC (the dudes that classify films in the UK) . He suggested there is no correlation with kids playing violent games, and actual violence caused by them (if any) He suggested that kids are actually quite aware of the fact that a game was fantasy, and had no connection with real life violence, and that they would not necessarily be more driven to commit a violent act, just because they were used to playing games that portrayed it ? He surely doesn't have any justified interest in saying that? After all .. research suggests otherwise .. or does it?

From a censor, I thought it was an interesting point....
