In my essay I am going to debate if video games are making people more violent. Most video games nowadays are massively bloody and gory and unfortunately a massive portion of young boys play these games. Could these games cause the young boys to develop a violent adulthood? Also I’m going to talk about the different kinds of video games like PC games, console games, portable electronic games, etc. In my paper I’m going to talk about American events such as Columbine, the incident at the movie theatre and other events and debate if video games were the purpose of these massacres. Talking about video games will be fairly easy for me because I am almost constantly playing something on my phone like angry birds or at home playing Call of Duty.
This is a very good topic to write about, especially since you have personal experience with video games. Another arguement you could consider is whether or not video games causes people to be more 'violent., as this is another controversial topic.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious as to how you will present this, as studies have consistently suggested that this is a case of correlation, but not causation. While mentally ill individuals are often known to play video games, modern society has most people playing video games. For example, September's release of Grand Theft Auto V had at least 11.21 million copies sold within the first 24 hours, making it the biggest entertainment launch in history, but you don't see 11.21+ million people commiting violent crime.
ReplyDeleteYou could write a very complex essay with all the research there is about this specific study. Good luck. Your thoughts are beautiful.
