If you count killing people because of online interactions (e.g. stealing items in an MMO).

As for video game violence inspiring real-life violence, I'm not so sure about that.

Many cases of violence over video games in internet cafe in Asia. That being said, they probably would've killed each other over chess too.

Some guy killed any other guy in game and the loser came to the cafe with a watermelon knife and stabbed the guy to death.

Two guys arguing over game stuff until one stabbed the other. Other patrons just went on with their games while the guy bled to death.

The first one is arguable, but you cant conclude that either was caused by games

My brother stabbed me in the leg for turning off his game when he refused to do it himself when I had asked him a half dozen times to come help with chores. But I have no evidence other than a scar on my thigh.

I wouldn't go so far as to say the video games "made him" violent, though. More that his anger at the situation drove him to violence. Just happened to be that video games played a part.
