Do games really get the message across?
I offererd to take my FPS-playing son to the shooting range to fire some real guns. Not interested.
Some people people want to blame games for all the violence in the world, yet we actually know the world is a less violent place now than any other time in human history. I'm certainly not crediting games with the reduction in violence, but it sure has not made things worse.
From that we can say that what people do in games has little to do with what they want to do in real life. It is just escapist fantasy.
Will any of the GCHQ pixel-warriors actually want to spend their whole live in spooksville? I doubt it.
