Description:

Violence in videogames is an issue that arises on a frequent basis in news media around the world. Many critics of computer games state there are links between violent videogames and subsequent agressive and antisocial behaviour in players. Yet the opposite group states that computer games enhance the eye-hand skills of player. It even stimulates their intelligence. Just think of the numerous puzzle games. But unfortunately, we can't get around the numerous cases where computer players caused themselves or others injuries. Directly or indirectly caused by computer games.
