in germany they're not.

they're blaming social exclusion.

his dad owned 15 or 16 guns and he had a room full with softairs... they should be happy that those peopel let out their anger in video games.

Yeah, I saw it on Chinese News and they were blaming it on video games as well. Maybe I missed the owning a bunch of guns part.

I still don't see why everyone blames it on video games. Does anyone have any stats to show that X% of shooters were addicted to violent video games?

well the majority of shooters do paly shooter.
but o does the majority of teenage boys.


and... not everyone is blaming video games. in germany they aren't riding that... since apparantly (in comparison to the slopy researched articled i've seen i namerican and UK media) german media does through news... with exception of tabloids
i jsut read the CNN articles and watched their video.. amazing how inacurate such a new conglomerate can be :-/
