The recent shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut has seen a wave of attention hit the shores of the video gaming industry. This attention has been derived from the fact that the alleged killer, Adam Lanza, was known to have played violent video games such as Call of Duty. This has led to widespread criticism of the gaming industry from the public as well as the 'higher ups' such as senator Rockefeller and the National Rifle Association (NRA).

Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.
Geez, Call of Duty strikes again. I don't think video games can be blamed for violence, I think people who do this sort of thing have a predisposition for violence already and many other factors are already at play. Still, its a warning for parents to respect the age restriction on video games.
I'm tired of people blaming video games. I will at most concede people might learn some ideas for how things work, but at the end of the day, that decision to pull the trigger in RL is up to the perp
Yes. Video Games caused all of the violence.
