Video games are evil and they serve no purpose other than to make us super crazy and want to kill everyone. Well, that's what politicians seem to think. For some reason that us gamer's find hard to fully understand, politicians and news media really have a disliking for the medium. They blame many of societies problems on video games that we know are simply there to entertain us and make some money. There's no underhanded plan or deep-rooted evil in video games, but that's what politicians would have you believe. Very specific games often crop up into the mainstream media, usually as a point of interest in a murder trial or a senator using them as an example as to why society is so terrible these days. Games like Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty are all too often used as a way to highlight the violence our children are subject to.
