This has been an ongoing debate ever since Mortal Kombat hit the gaming scene back in the 90s. Since then there have been school shootings where video games were targeted as the cause and countless studies that claim there is some link between video games and violence. So what is the link if any? We at Pixel Judge are trying to find an answer.

Something about recreating old school graphics in an era of HD high poly photo realism just hits a spot. I'm not nostalgic cause I mostly played GameCube and GB/A, but it's a visual style that gets over looked even by indies.
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

brb, gonna go commit a crime and blame it on video games.
one point in time people thought pinball machines made kids into ruffians.
Video Games are just the current scapegoat. Rock Music was blamed before. TV as well. Even many books were blamed for everything. These people can't realize that they are at fault and instead of admitting that they are wrong they find something to blame it on.
Also, if over 100 million people play shooting games and 20 of these people go on a violent rampage, how large of a percent is that?
But then again we live in a world where Mass Effect has full frontal nudity and the iPhone 5S will "kill" the PS4 and Xbox 720. God I hate the media.
I'll say this, it is possible that certain individuals who are prone to violence, play violent games and can then move on to commit violent crimes in the real world.
Whether or not the violent games are a significant contributing factor in these particular instances of real world violence however, is still widely debatable.
But that's about as much as I care to comment on this tired old argument.
Yes.
