What Videogames Really Teach Kids, part 1



Uploaded by: jfreedan
Video Description:
Politicians are calling videogames "murder simulators" and say they should be outlawed. So I made a video to demonstrate why they are totally mistaken. The second part is located here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvEv_s-1NcM
(Most game footage is not my own)

3 stars. It's true, but slightly biased (how do you explain games like gta?).

It´s ironic, but even in gta4 there is "moral judgement" many times in the storyline you have the ability to kill or not kill a person and that decision has consequences.

Well, the RPGs you ... ( 5 months ago by JarlFrank)
Well, the RPGs you took as examples aren't really RPGs but much rather jRPGs, Japanese RPGs. Western RPGs are quite different and involve even more awesome stuff like a story with choice and consequence, and a lot of character development and customization. Check out games like Fallout, Arcanum, Baldur's Gate 2 and Planescape Torment to see what I mean.

I hate censorship, and I hate people being hypocritical only caring about "The kids" while other people get their rights taken away from them. Well guess what retards those kids have to grow up some time and then what. Then you won't give and shit.
Don't worry I never gave a shit.

GTA is not an FPS.
Also, Mother3 for virtual console!
And what about the other media, so mimicing TV can go without notice. TV is wayyyyyyy more violent that video games, and what do they teach? NOTHING but agression. But it is fun...and some people just overreact to it.

This guy...Hillary...Pointless arguments in both ways...the violence problem is not there. Well...this discusion leads to a diferent problem ...the guy who made this video it's a normal citizen of the world but hillary it's one of the most powerful womans in the world it's very dangerous to see that powerful politians have stupid opinions on violence. HOW ABOUT CLOSE WEAPONS STORES IN AMERICA? Maybe this...is closer to the resolution of the violence problem in america lol.

Your video would have more credence if you didn't use mostly clips from tool-assisted games. And the ebaumsworld clip. Fucking thiefs.
Completely agree. ... ( 3 months ago by crankycaz)
Completely agree. Make having firearms etc illegal - not video games!
Another thing I'd add to the vid's argument is that the military uses video games for training because, as you said, it improves hand-eye coordination. That's fact, and it's a good skill to acquire.
RPGs are also good for younger kids (although I'm 19 and still love playing them) as the forcus is often on the story so it helps with kids' reading.
I would say perhaps ... ( 3 months ago by crankycaz)
I would say perhaps the reason there are more incidents in America is because weapons are more available than in other countries. There are probably people outside of the US that have similar violent tendencies, but not as many have access to weapons. That said, knife crime in Britain ison the up. :S
