This is out of the blue but after reading about people blaming video games for childrens' violent acts, I have to say, blame the parents. Gaming companies should not be penalized, convicted or even barred from putting out games because some child thought it would be wonderful to re-enact a scene from a game.
I love my video games, whether its Counter-Strike: Source (Oh yeah!) or one for looks (Rumbling Roses). I have been a gamer for quite some time and I gotta tell ya, I haven't had any violent tendency what-so-ever. But if one does, the parents should be blamed because it is them who is letting their own child play the game.
Once again, this was just out of the blue and had to get some thoughts out. If you really wanna see some violent behaviors, play Magic the Gathering. Going to those tournaments, you see a lot of angry people.
