So little said on the "other studies" that confirmed the link between aggression and gaming? For shame, AP. Don't just throw that out there and let people make whatever they want of it. Tell us what the studies were like you did earlier in the article.

mhmmm, about the link between agression and violent games, i believe it depends on the person that's playin becuz myself i'ma big gamer, so i grew up playin violent games, boxing, call of duty and even Grand Theft auto, big fan of gta, but i don't find myself agressive at all, and also i wanted to say if u play more violent games how is a person more prone to be obese, becuz if ur playin alot of other games could u become obese anyways, cuz juss look at guitar hero, very, very addictive, so u can't tell me there not gonna become obese from jus sittin there and play that... well that's my opinon.
