Being desensitized from the true (negative) sensations of violence is the problem. Perhaps if video games could add moral values then it would seem a little more real.


When playing video games like halo or call of duty it is just straight out fighting. Any objectives are given and you just follow them. Being a higher rank in the game only means power ups, not more tasks required. They don't talk about why there is a war in the first place in the game. Its thoughtless combat. But still the games are fun. Sorry if you don't agree with me, I mean its a game! I don't feel like killing somebody after playing.

I think the problem is that the game isn't real enough. So the concept of killing somebody in the game is irrelevant to the player. Don't take away the blood and gore, the deviations from reality. That only gives kids wrong assumptions about what war is really like, and I suppose could lead to problems.
