No ,its not going to be one of those"PEOPLE TODAY....DRONE....DRONE"lectures,but this change in attitude is happening.
It doesnt go so far as the fact that if you send someone into a room with perfect dark,she/he/it is not going to emerge a blood thirsty wild child,not quite,but she/he/it may start to become grumpy,angry,sad(to the extend that they are crying!)Or maybe they may neglect their parents for a while.
Lets view it from two standpoints:
1)OFFENSE:A person has a rather gory game,and goes into a room with it for a while,he`ll probably emerge and answer back,take the defensive,or shout at someone.Why?
Because,games moral eventually soak into kids and teach them that what their doing is right and usually it isnt.
2)DEFENSE:The game is not real,therefore,it would only affect them for a little while so it doesnt really matter
if what they do with their fake guns because..It isnt real!
so kids can be taught that its fine solong as its a real game.
My conclusion:I think it does change peoples attitudes towards this and athough it doesnt go as far as an adult feeling compelled to run someone over in their ford mondeo,I think to some extend it does affect people in certain ways.
What do you think?

I agree with you there and the PDark tunes rock!!!!!!!! especially the ending one WOHHHHHHHHH
Well when I used to play Street Fighter 2, I wouldn't be approachable for a good hour or two after playing, it used to make me throw fireballs at my sister and the amount of times I dragon punched my Dad.
after i play mario , i start saying "it's a me mario " and all that stuff , after playing perfect dark i humm the theme tunes etc , so i think your right there goeman but i only do it for a little while afterwards . But just think , what if someone was playing zelda oot , and they had just been diving off of the cliffs near gerudo fortress or have just been playing the diving game in zoras domain , then that kid , thinkinjg that it looked easy , went and out dived off of some huge bridge into a river , that kid would be no more !! ( unless he/she was actually one of those cliff divers , then they might be ok , if .... the can swim !!)
Kingklik, do you see? obviously not cos you seem to be asleep!

Yawn
where did you copy that from? (sarchasm intended) seriously though, I think that's an interesting point, but I think it is'nt to do with the actual person in question, but it's to do with his/her/it's, sub-concious mind, do you get what i'm saying?
