So the new video game, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, came out Tuesday night at midnight. I had a couple of student, Michael and Charlie, who spent the night playing it and then tried to come to school with no sleep. Needless to say, they were useless on Wednesday.
The game is set to have record breaking sales. So there must be a lot of people buying it and loving it. I've been told the graphics are very life like.
There's also some controversy about how violent and bloody it is. And the story line is too close to what our soilders are actually experiencing in real life (terrorism, Afghanistan, etc). The Blizzard Company is using some revenue to help our fighting men and women
Certainly it's a funny thing to talk about today, on Veterans day.
How does video gaming violence effect us in the long run?

This is the last game i played in the call of duty franchise and the only "bloody" part is when you shoot up the airport but even then it is pg-13 esc gore at best, this game series has gone down since MW2 so it doesn't matter much to me
