PLN Video Games

While listening to the presentations in English class, the one that I found to be the most interesting was Anthony Logan's which was about video games and the effects. He talked about when people play violent games, they tend to become for violent themselves. I never would have believed this, however, I can relate. I was playing Call of Duty and I got angry and punched a chair and almost broke my hand. After my incident, I realized I needed to cut back on video games and learn to control my anger because I do not want a video game making me an aggressive person. The main thing that shocked me in Anthony's presentation was the poll he did. The majority of the people who did the poll either played video games every chance they could get, or every other day. He had said that a year ago, the poll would be the exact opposite. There have been many new violent games that have been introduced lately which shows that more and more people are playing and eventually, the violent games change their personalities. All together, the main idea is to cut back on video games, they make us aggressive and we need to learn not to use what we see in a video game in real life.
