"There should be less violence in video and computer games sold to kids." (American Psychological Association)
Games sure aren't like they were 20 years ago, that's a given. The technology that people use nowadays gives the maker's of these games virtually detailed graphics and images that seem almost lifelike. The games that usually are the bloodiest and most violent are rated M for mature audiences, which entails they need to be 17 or older to play the game. But the big question is do these video games encourage bad behavior? Honestly, I think that it does not for most people because parents do a good job of letting their kids know that it is only a video game and that they can not do those things in real life. For the people that do not learn this problem, it could pose a threat down the road because they have the mentality that what they do in the video game is okay. But for the most part I do not think that video games harm society, they pretty much entertain people and that's about it. Also, an interesting link that I found was at FoxNews.com:
