...September 17th, 2013. On that day, hordes of eager Grand Theft Auto fans lined up outside of Gamestops everywhere, anxious to get their hands on Rockstar Games's highly anticipated latest addition to the saga: Grand Theft Auto V. Those fans were not disappointed. It is widely hailed as one of the best games ever released for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, and is probably responsible for more than one late research paper. This is due to its nearly flawless mechanics, gripping storylines, gorgeous graphics, and enormous open world. Until a couple weeks ago, I'd never played any game in the Grand Theft Auto series. This is largely because Grand Theft Auto IV was released when I was thirteen years old, and my parents thought that was just a bit too young to be exposed to car-jackings and rampant hooker-killing. However, for the sake of research and comparison, two weeks ago I played my Steam copy of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which comes right before GTA IV. Now, I don't know what GTA IV's mechanics and physics are like, but San Andreas's are very buggy and wooden-looking. Murdered gangsters flop around like rag dolls and do that weird restless-leg-syndrome-type wiggling that really just shouldn't be continued postmortem. Your car or bike might spontaneously disappear, leaving you to either trudge to your destination on foot or drag some poor schmuck out of his own vehicle. These anomalies are exceedingly rare in Grand Theft Auto V. Dead people stay dead, and your car either stays...

...Have you ever heard about the game Grand Theft Auto? This is by far my favorite video game to play I can sit in from of the television and play this game for hours. I started playing this game when it first came out. I was 14 then. I am 20 now, and I still can't get enough of it. This game isn't just a great game, but it's also a very violent one. Nowadays, parents don't want there kids playing games showing violent, dangerous, and nude scenes. I Game like this can teach a kids bad behavior, reduce creative learning, and cause them to neglect their childhood. We all know kids pick up what they see , hear, and learn. For example if you tell a kid to shut up ,then they will remember it and tell someone or even you the same thing. If you tell a kid, they beautiful they will remember they're beautiful. If you sit a child in front of a game where there is killing , cursing, and stealing, then they can pick up those traits. It is important to keep your children safe and a kid while they still can be. A violent video game won't help....

...GTA is the most popular game among children today. The game is widely known for its depiction of violence, sexual/nudity content, and drug/alcohol use. The first installment of the game was in 1997 and became so popular that the game series has five installments with rumors of a sixth to come soon. People like to live through these games and that’s why it’s very popular, especially among younger people. Many young children have gone to duplicate the actions that they see in these game. In July of 2008, six boys replicating the actions from GTA IV went on a crime spree throughout New York, “Six Long Island teens, apparently inspired by the violent video game Grand Theft Auto, were charged with robbery after a crime spree” (“Game Over”). The boys had robbed people and broke into cars with a crowbar, a bat, and a broomstick. These are weapons that are used in the game. When the boys had been caught, they said they were copying the actions they had witnessed in the game. Many would argue and say that they only blamed it on the game to get away with the crime and lessen their...

...This week in entertainment: urban warfare, the supply and demand of narcotics, nudity, and a lengthy list of miscellaneous indecencies brought to you by both a critically acclaimed TV series and a video game. However, despite the similarities, the difference between the two is a simple one; the Boardwalk Empire is a lauded TV drama, while the release of Grand Theft Auto V has been shrouded in negative reactions from the media and parents alike. Although video games have become a societal norm, with 58% of the American population identifying as a member of the gaming community, they have also become a highly divisive social issue. This can be seen in the comparison of the coverage the game has received. The Toronto sun’s Tech Gaming columnist Steve Tilley covered the release with an article entitled “5 ways ‘Grand Theft Auto’ has changed videogames”. As a voice for the gamers, the article highlights everything about the game itself; the $265 million that was spent to develop the game, the five years it took, and the $6 billion it is projected to earn during the first six months. In contrast, CNN’s Doug Gross presented the same data, but followed the bare tech facts with an examination of the associated controversy and social problems that have come along with it. These two media outlets and their writers serve to show that while Boardwalk Empire has been gifted the golden ticket to be edgy without fault, the double standard whips back around to corner the video game industry for...

...How Grand Theft Auto III Made an Impact Grand Theft Auto III was very influential on the appearance of gaming. This game’s storyline and all its blood, strong language, and violence are entirely focused on adult consumers. The pause menu contained a page called the status page, which showed how many things you have completed throughout a significantly complex map. This game included another very interesting feature that involved radios stations in cars that continuously re-played set soundtracks. Fairly well known actors voiced the secondary characters (GamesRadar Staff). The consumers were also a part of Grand Theft Auto III’s impact on the appearance of gaming by constructing mods (GamesRadar Staff). Although stealing cars was already incorporated...

...Video Game Violence In Youth Kevin Roshanaie Prof Sills March 12, 2012 Video Game Violence in Youth This Paper will discuss how violent video games do not cause any acts of violence among the youth in this country. A larger gap is shown between the public’s perception of Video games and what research shows. Some people assume that the availability of video games has led to a pandemic in youth violence. According to federal crime statistics “the rate of juvenile violent crimes in the United States is at a 30 year low”. (Henry Jenkins ) “Researchers have discovered that people who are serving time for violent crimes typically consume less media before committing their crime than the average person in the general population”. (Henry Jenkins ) One thing that is true, Young offenders who have committed school shooting’s here in America have been avid video game players. Young people are the ones who are gamers over the adults. “Statistics show that 90 percent of boys and 40 percent of girls play video games”. (Theesa.com) The overwhelming majority of the youth who play video games do not commit any anti –social acts. According to a report by the U.S Surgeon General that was released in 2001. The report “states that the strongest risk factors for schools shootings are centered on mental stability of that youth offender and it’s also based on the quality of their home life not exposure to video games”.( Henry Jenkins) The panic over video games causing violence is doubly...
