    Does playing violent games make you violent?

    Does a violent games make a person violent or a bad person or does it makes a person less angry? According to some research done "There were actually higher levels of relaxation before and after playing the game as opposed to experiencing anger but this did very much depend on personality type," said by newspaper journalists Jane Barnett from Middlesex University's. She added more by saying that "This will help us to develop an emotion and gaming questionnaire to help distinguish the type of gamer who is likely to transfer their online aggression into everyday life." So what do people have to say about it.

    I don't think that it will either make you a bad person or make you violent. I have played many games like that, and sometimes I act kind of violent and gross, but at the same time, I have friends who are active players and they're completely different from the way I act. I have even played some of his games before and I don't feel any different. I guess it really depends on what kind of person you are.

    I don't think so... I'm not a psychological expert, but all i can say is, it all depends on your will power and mind control... I have been playing Counter Strike since 8 years now, but i have not killed anyone yet...

    Well I think its more person specific. Games can make you feel angry & violent but its your natural behavior that defines how violent you are. Your surroundings & upbringings are more responsible than Gaming.

    But I do feel if you are not matured enough to understand the games purpose then you must not play such violent games if its affecting your psyche.
