Computer games are very popular with young people, but they are also
controversial. For example, opponents argue that they are harmful to brain
development, cause children to neglect reading and encourage violent or anti-social
behaviour. Supporters, however, claim that the games help to develop advanced
thinking skills and are often played cooperatively rather than alone. What is the
truth of the matter? Our task in this Thesis is to find out. In the past, not many
people really cared about computer games being violent; it was not a hot topic as it
is today. But within the past few years, with games becoming more realistic and
violent, there have been certain unlawful acts committed by individuals who have
been known to play such games. Many blame these games for what happened, but
many disagree. And it is these two viewpoints we are going to explore, and also
present our own. Those who believe games containing violent gameplay and images
are to blame for some murders would often assume that because the perpetrator
plays such games, the games must be the problem. Reasons for thinking this may
include the fact that the gun crime in some countries has gone up during the time
these games have been around. The way some see it is that if a child sees and plays
games that contain, for example, gang violence, from a young age, then the child
may be more likely to think of such things as acceptable. And if the child grows up
with these games then, it is said, they might be more likely to commit such acts.
