These type of news stories really bother me. Sure some people are addicted to gaming, especially to the likes of COD or WoW. But even more people aren't and just play it casually. The people who see these stories get this idea that all gamers are violent addicts as that's how we are so often portrayed in the media .The people who claim video games make people violent should do some research. In Queenslands 'Mana Bar' which is a nightclub/ gaming bar where friends can drink and game at the same time there has not been one violent case since the bar opened. And no disorderly drunken behaviour. This is coming from a place where violent video games are mixed with alcohol. Yet all around them other bars and nightclubs are fueled with drunken bar fights every night... and they think gaming is the source of this? .
