This article argues the presence of immoral ethical issues in many of today’s video games. Edging on creators to make games that a more realistic and with a little social responsibility. A strong point in this article is the fact that children and adolescents are spending so much time playing with games filled with crime and wrongful actions that they are taking time away from bonding and spending time with their families which in turn results in them learning more about crime and immoral behavior rather than quality time with their respected families. I completely support this point and really think parents need to limit the amount of time dedicated to these games or at least completely see what these are really about before they purchase them for their kids.

This article explains the results of two studies performed on groups of college students that played violent video games for a certain period of time and their recorded actions after the duration of play. Psychologist, Dr. Craig A. Anderson said, “Violent video games provide a forum for learning and practicing aggressive solutions to conflict situations”. Which if thought about makes sense, playing these violent games for such long periods of time may actually cause you to react differently in conflict situations.
