Video Games and their effects on society have been a serious topic in later years, and many American congressmen are against them in order to gain votes. Make a study with researchers from around the world, and publish the positive and negative conclusions.
Gamers like myself have been looked upon darkly by society, I ask to answer this question on both sides, support us and give us the truth.
Lastly, I'd like to mention the government sponsored boy scout hunting activities, and how they promote real violence over harmless fiction. It seems unfair to claim games to be violent maniacs while sponsoring the use of real firearms to children.
