Click Online's recent report on games violence

First, some e-mails from parents. Marion Brenchley wrote to say:

"I think you only have to listen to a group of 10 year-olds discussing the latest weapon they have won - and their knowledge of the weapons - to know that the games they play are affecting the way they communicate and act towards one another. We never let my son play games rated above '12', yet still he and his friends talk about what type of gun he would like for Christmas."

Malcolm H. Ellis, who is both a parent and a grandparent, made a very interesting point:

"Regarding the question of whether violent computer games and films affect youngsters: it is more worrying that they have no effect. When I see these games I am shocked, but my grandchildren are not. Isn't this the real danger - that our children are not affected by these images?"

Well, we think the environment children play these games in is very important. What, when and where the child is allowed to play must be significant - even if it's to point out that a scary game is not real. Surely that's the role of the parent?

Finally, a point of view from a female gamer, Kate Curl:

"It is unrealistic of the games industry to think that it currently has any chance of widening their market outside male, hardcore gamers when they remove more interesting, critically acclaimed games from the shelves so quickly. I am a 30 year-old female - not a techie, and not a typical gamer. I found some interesting puzzle games rather than violent, male-orientated games and I discovered that shortly after being released, they became unavailable in the high street. These non-typical games need to be on the shelves longer."

Do you find that to be the case - that the less violent games are removed too soon? Or is it that the space is needed for - dare we say it - more exciting games? Keep the questions and comments coming in.
