Violence in books is textual, so it's going to be far less vivid for the reader than a video game where you actually cause the violence. Additionally, violent books/conversations/thoughts/lectures often focus on the negative aspects of violence rather than glorifying it the way movies and video games do. |

It's a familiar horse to beat, this NEW media is special, and different and scary.
It happened with jazz, rock&roll, comic books, movies, novels, heavy metal, many scapegoat has met the whip of the righteously ignorant. It's always been a meaningless argument, totally void of scientific fact.
Were there wars before fiction? Was there crime before video games?
