Mitsur the entire point of a game is to do things you can't do in real life and thats exactly what Rockstar is playing into with GTA and Manhunt.

Why do you play racing games? Because never in your life will you ever drive a real F1 car.
Why do you RPG's? Because it's a world that doesn't exist and you get to use magic, be famous, stuff like that.

Why do people play manhunt and GTA? Because you can run people over and stab them to death 10.000 times with a blunt object as they are screaming in agony and you can get away with it. Thats the fun of the game, simple as that.

Ofcourse everyone has different taste in games, but believing that games like this affect a gamers mind just because they are violent is crazy.
I'm not thinking about stealing an F1 car just because I just came first in a race on the Xbox 360. I'm not gonna run onto the soccer field during the finals because I think I can make a difference. I'm not gonna dress up like some unknown figure and pretend to do magic and throw myself infront of a bus. Why the hell would I cut someone's throat out with a carkey?! Yes it's a violent game, that's why it has a mature rating and not a PG-13 rating. If people can not see the huge border between a game and reality they are ****ing up in the head anyway and if they hadn't played the game something else would have set them off. Blaming games for real life violence is the biggest excuse someone could have ever come up with.
