nope I don't realy think so.. it has been showen that most hard core video players tent to actualy leant more towards being introverts. but thats why I don't think so. I remember when we were kids we used to play "cowboys and indians" and other games like this where we used realistic looking guns and shot our buddies. we used to throw rocks at what ever, cherry bomb the niebours mail box, poop bombs, ect.. in school we used to get into a lot of fights. but we never played video games.. i have raised two kids that are long goon from home and have two that are going to be here for a while. so I saw the state of kids about 10 to 15 years ago and I am seeing them now and I see less violance than whan I was a kid.

one thing I am noticking is that kids don't have the same sence of honnor as we did. ie. letting the guy you just knocked down get up befor you knock him down again, and "one on one" ect but I think this a more an issue of kids from broken homes and parrents that have to both work full time (although there is no way around that one some times).

so to blame all this on a video game is kinnda stupid, but some people will try find an excuse to blame instead of looking at themselves.

kinda like when Twisted sister was sued claiming there song caused some parent's kid to kill themselve.
