I am not sure how the genre of games are classified, but I do know one
thing for certain, there has been a lot of controversy about violence
and stuff like that over games like this, and in my previous research I
discovered that the long you are exposed to it, the more hard-wired it
is going to be in your brain.
Also, there is an upside to this. It allows you to increase and boost
your decision-making mechanisms. On a television news cast I watched one
day they discovered that people who played these kinds of games had
shorter reacting time to real-life threats.
In conclusion, violent games should not be played to any extreme that it
will force your attitudes to change, but should be played at a level of
moderation.
