Increased aggression after violent video game exposure has to be one of the most replicated effects in social psychology. This doesn't imply anything about regulations, I just find that it's important to point out since people will continue to deny the science.


It probably lends to the visualization aspect, and how that can lower your natural inhibitions to killing. See: On Killing by Lt. Col. Grossman, and how the use of more realistic targets and training increased the number of soldiers purposely killing their enemy.

Whereas, in WW2, it was a common theme that soldiers would shoot way over the head of their enemy.
