The most common argument against computer games is that video games promote violence. A counter-argument commonly expressed in the video game community is that playing these games does not motivate players to actually commit acts of violence in reality; playing a "first person shooter" game does not cause most people to commit murder.

While most gamers do admit that there are occasionally violent or horrifying incidents as a result of video games, they maintain that it is obviously an extremely small percentage. If this was not the case, the results would be obvious. While millions of people play computer games, only a handful people have been affected by violence etc as a result. Gamers claim that they are being used as a scapegoat for occasional tragedies with no hard evidence to support the accusations against them.

Over two hundred studies have been published which examine the effects of violence in entertainment media and which at least partially focus on violence in video games in particular. Some psychological studies have shown a Correlation between children playing violent video games and suffering psychological effects, though the vast majority stop short of actually becoming Violent.

It is a Growing Problem in today gaming world, it has Destroyed Familes, Ruined Careers and even may push some to crime. It is defined as playing compulsively, isolating Ones self from social contact and focusing almost entirely on in-game achievements rather than life events.

those who overuse video games often find themselves more successful in conducting virtual relationships than real world relationships. A 2004 study on internet addicts, which population includes online gamers, found four common indicators of those who are supectable are: (1) shyness, (2) lack of spiritual faith, (3) belief that others control their lives, and (4) an elevated belief in chance as an influence on their lives. Some theory's stae than-in reward systems of the games to explain their addictive nature.

Some psycgologists and parents' groups have criticized video games because they believe they cause children to sit alone in the television room for many hours in a row, interacting with a machine rather than running and playing outside as they exercise and improve their social skills by playing with other children. They claim that video games can be even more Addicting that Television , and therefore more likely to isolate them socially in this way. Some studies have purported that there is a correlation between depression and Playing computer games.

The American Medical Association in 2007, is considering ****fiying Game Addiction as a Mental Illness. Though not Officaly recognized by the AMA, some consiter game addiction is said to be an impulse control disorder, the symptoms include regular or repetitive displays of at least five of the following:

1. Persistent thoughts of the activity or performance of the activity.(Preoccupation)
Use of activity to escape problems or relieve bad mood.(Preoccupation)
2. Need for increased time spent on the activity to achieve satisfaction or diminished reward for the same amount of time spent on the activity.(Tolerance)
3. Inability to control, stop or diminish the behavior.(Loss of control)
4. Restlessness or irritability when prevented from partaking in the activity.(Withdrawal)
5. Lying to friends or family about extent of involvement with activity.(Continuance despite adverse consequences)
6. Committing illegal acts to sustain activity.(Continuance despite adverse consequences)
7. Jeopardizing or losing relationships, career or educational opportunities to pursue activity.(Continuance despite adverse consequences)
8. Relying on others to finance activity.(Continuance despite adverse consequences)

I like being Large, people stay way from me, i eat the most tastey food in the world, all the nurse at the hospital know my name, sure, iv lost a foot and some of my vision, and ive had 5 heart attack's before age 23, but its too late to change what i am, so i might was well just relax and ride the slow train to hell..........................

It Has Begun!

Sony has launched a Pre-E3 Strike but slashing the PS3's 60GB to $499 USD, and Announcing a 80GB Version with Motorstorm is coming next month for $599. i think it will help with sales(if it goes down any more even i might buy one), but it will not pull the system out of the gutter by itself.............

Microsoft is expect to Fight back with a price cut of there own, but it wont be much if it even happen's, $50 at most (its still would not be enough to make me buy one again after the last one i had crapped out 8 times in 6 and a half months............).

Nintendo, so far, has remained silent, but you can count on Ninty to drop some Big Info at their press junket. and dont expect them to cut the wii price, it;s already cheap.

its shaping up to be one heck of a E3, even if it is many times smaller than last year.................
