I love the video game section: I just love it when people blame the video games for becoming violent and not the kids. I mean the first sign of a serial killer used to be the abuse of small animals, which is usually why the police take some kid shooting a cat with a BB gun seriously because they want the kids DNA and finger prints before he goes pro.

I prefer to play strategy/god games, RPG's and, where I can find them, a good physics applet. You can do cruel things in them, especially ones like Black & White, but I always associate it more with burning ants because I know there's no one real on the other side. I dislike FPS primarily because there is someone on the other side, so when I play them I nearly always play single player or co-op.
