Great for school-project, but bad for a NG-movie..
Good reporting
Dont mind people like the last reviewer. Games are played for many reasons. Releaving stress is a common on and so is the challange. But nothing gets rid of boredom like a good video game. Hope ya got a damn high mark for this.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You obviously know nothing about psychology, if you did, you'd realize that this study is utterly rediculous. See, a person with a 'soft' dispossition and is not a 'gamer' will play simple, E rated games because violence scares them off. A person with a 'hard' dispossition will buy into gimmicks and play a game for the violence. A true gamer says screw stereotyping and plays games for the challenge of it, Monkey Ball and GTA, Mario Kart and Metal Gear Solid, Zelda and Soul Calibur.
This is bullshit
First of all, not everybody spent the same amount of time playing video games. To really determin if the violence in the games effected grades or not, you would have to find people of the same age, around the same IQ, who all played video games for the same amount of time. Then you would have to compare the attitudes of those who played M games to those that played E games.
Second, 5-10 hours a week is not an "Avid Game player". You figure there are 7 days a week... that's a little more then an hour a day. Oooohhh some hardcore gamer he is. ::rollseyes::
You then compare him to somebody who plays games for 70 hours a week. That's more like it... 10 hours a day. But needless to say, somebody who spends this much time playing and not enough time working is going to do worse at school as he has no time to study. The rateing on the game has nothing to do with the outcome in this scenario. You're simply saying that people who play more games get worse grades... regardless of wether they play GTA or Barbie.
