| Whakarāpopototanga: | Recent school shootings in America and elsewhere have focussed attention on a possible link between violent video games and violent behaviour. Killing Games takes a global view, but with a particular focus on America and school shootings that have taken place there. Via a series of interviews with psychologists, game designers, activists and others from around the world, juxtaposed with game examples, it explores the arguments for and against video games as a cause of violence. Examples of school shootings in America and Germany are discussed, including the psychology of the perpetrators and their apparent obsession with 'first person shooter' types of games. |
