Violent Video Game Effects on Children and Adolescents $36.95 Violent video games are successfully marketed to and easily obtained by children and adolescents. Even the U.S. government distributes one such game, America's Army, through both the internet and its recruiting offices. Is there any scientific evidence to support the claims that violent games contribute to aggressive and violent behavior?. Anderson, Gentile, and Buckley first present an overview of empirical research on the effects of violent video games, and then add to this literature three new studies that fill the most important gaps. They update the traditional General Aggression Model to focus on both developmental processes and how media-violence exposure can increase the likelihood of aggressive and violent behavior in both short- and long-term contexts. Violent Video Game Effects on Children and Adolescents also reviews the history of these games' explosive growth, and explores the public policy options for controlling their distribution. Anderson et al. describe the reaction of the games industry to scientific findings that exposure to violent video games and other forms of media violence constitutes a significant risk factor for later aggressive and violent behavior. They argue that society should begin a more productive debate about whether to reduce the high rates of exposure to media violence, and delineate the public policy options that are likely be most effective. As the first book to unite empirical research on and public policy options for violent video games, Violent Video Game Effects on Children and Adolescents will be an invaluable resource for student and professional researchers in social and developmental psychology and media studies. |

Funny Games $12.71 A powerfully graphic film (even though no violence is ever shown on the screen itself) about an Austrian family who goes on a country vacation and become the victims of two cold-blooded psychopaths who are out to torture them with their funny games. Haneke's point, that fictional violence is as real as the real world's, is presented chillingly in this extremely well-acted, yet potentially offensive effort. Weak of stomach, beware. |

The Children $12.73 As directed by Brit Tom Shankland, this outing constitutes a chilling installment in the subgenre of horror films about evil children running amok. The tale unfolds in contemporary England during a snowy, late December, with a young married couple, Jonah (Stephen Campbell Moore) and Elaine (Eva Birthistle), journeying into the country to spend New Year's with immediate family -- Elaine's sister Chloe (Rachel Shelley) and brother-in-law Robbie (Jeremy Sheffield). Accompanying the adults are three children: Casey (Hannah Tointon), Elaine's adolescent daughter from a first marriage (who resents being dragged along), and youngsters Paulie (William Howes) and Miranda (Eva Sayer), her children with Jonah (who can't wait to see their cousins Nicky and Leah). Upon arrival at Robbie and Chloe's home, ominous and increasingly bizarre events begin to transpire: Paulie grows visibly ill, Leah and Nicky begin slipping into menacing and threatening behavior toward everyone, capped off by an ugly accident that they engineer involving Robbie -- an incident that pushes him to the brink of death and ends with a gruesome act of carnage committed by the children. Soon, Elaine realizes that Paulie is infected with a bizarre, zombie-like virus that he is systematically spreading to the other children, and promptly decides to ameliorate the situation by taking violence into her own hands and ending the boy's young life. Little does she realize, however, just how pervasive the virus has grown. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi Wellingtons have never looked so sinister. |

Wicked Games $8.46 A number of men with a reason to kill must deal with the actions of another man who is spilling blood in a wealthy Florida suburb in this violent thriller. After years of chronic infidelity, Gary Bloch (Kevin Scott Crawford) is getting his comeuppance when he learns that his wife, Traci (Patricia Paul), is having an affair. Driven mad by jealousy, Gary confides his thoughts of killing his spouse to Dan Hess (Joel D. Wynkoop), a longtime friend who works as a police detective, and is also involved in a destructive sexual relationship. As he tries to reassure his friend and convince him not to kill himself or someone else, Dan remembers that Gary's cousin is Mike Strauber, a notorious local serial killer. Wondering if there might be a familial link in Gary and Mike's desire to turn to violence, Dan discusses this notion with David Siedow (Kermit Christman), a local psychiatrist with a history of working with criminals. Dan's real reason for visiting David is to establish Gary as a possible suspect when Dan kills his troublesome girlfriend, as well as Traci. However, while David is on to Dan's scheme, this makes things all the more puzzling for him when another killer arrives on the scene. Wicked Games is a loose follow-up to an earlier direct-to-video feature from writer and director Tim Ritter. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Fundamental things to consider when purchasing video games
Video games are a fun and indulging pass time activity that you can play on your own or with friends. There are a few things to consider though before purchasing a video game. The market today offers a wide range of video game genres to choose from therefore it is crucial to have an idea of exactly what type of games you intend to purchase.
The cost of the video is one of the important things to consider before purchasing it. Have a budget range on which you intend to spend on the video game and compare the prices of games on internet. There are various video game online stores for example Game Heroez where you can get relevant information on the video games. There are also other companies that usually resell second hand video games at cheaper prices. Purchasing used video games can be a great alternative because the games are usually still in good condition and are way cheaper than new games.
The other thing that you should put into consideration is whether the video game is a present for someone or it's for your own personal collection. If it is for your own collection, you should consider the genres of video games that are your personal favorite. If you want to try out something new, ensure that you go through the games reviews before purchasing it. You might spend a lot on it and it ends up disappointing you. Some sites like Games Heroez offer trials for the new games to ensure that you spend your cash on something that is worth it.
If you are getting the video game for someone else, there are a number of things you should consider. First and foremost, age is a very critical. The games are designed to suite different age groups therefore get one that is appropriate for their age. There are video games for children that usually contain mild violence. The video games are usually rated for the different age groups therefore ensure you check the ratings. Game Heroez video store sell their videos with ratings on the case therefore you can purchase appropriate videos for any age group. Also consider the taste of the person you intend to purchase the video game for.
The other major consideration before purchasing a video game is the system compatibility. Some video game versions are only compatible with selected gaming systems. Therefore consider the gaming system the game is supposed to be used on whether it's an X-Box, a Play station, a Nintendo Game cube or a computer and choose the game version compatible to the system.
