MPs have called for new restrictions on violent video games after the Norwegian mass killer Anders Breivik claimed he “trained” on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
The Labour backbencher Keith Vaz, chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee and a longstanding critic of the video games industry, led calls for new powers to ban material rather than only apply age classification.
An Early Day Motion sponsored by Mr Vaz called on the Government to "provide for closer scrutiny of aggressive first-person shooter video games”.

Honestly, instead of resorting to getting violently drunk and harassing someone you can put on a game to calm your nerves. Journey is a perfect example of this, aswell as fighting games.

They (Violente/Assasin people) always fault outside sources when in reality they are sick from inside and sometimes is more the result of how society works, alienating people that doesnt fit in the mold.
It just cracks me up how it's always video games that get the negative attention. Completely ignoring violent movies, books, even some TV shows.
These MPs just don't have a clue and hopefully this kind of illogical and scary idea won't get past the first process.
But yes, video games are the popular scapegoat now for the press and politicians. It's far easier to blame it on video games. Never mind the fact that anything can set someone off on a violent rampage if they are that way inclined because some people are just complete psychos.
If games weren't around they'd find something else to blame.
I'm in something of a conundrum.... I'm not sure whether to bubble you up for "well said" or "intelligent".
I believe I'll go with intelligent.
The person/thing to blame is the slime that pulled the trigger.
Third-person could be his soft spot.
Heck, let's stop delaying the inevitable....let's all live in tiny rooms and feast on government cheese, only being allowed to leave to work at the mines.
