It's a high chance that people who play Aggressive Video Games will feel less empathy in their real life. And thus they will be less helpful and probably deal with life problems in an aggressive manner. I'm not saying those shooter games or fighting games are directly making us criminals. No, they don't. Because aggressive behavior is a complex thing and depends on so many other things. Especially how what our lifestyle is. But it surely works as an influencer. 

There should be some control over these types of video games. Also, the health and mental hazards of those games must be written on the game or while purchasing them. But unfortunately, we are far away from this. 

So, what we can do from our personal level? 

Well, as a parent or teacher, it's should be our duty to ensure what our kids are playing. And if you are an adult and playing these for entertainment, then do have some research on how it makes an impact on our brain. Do try to have a healthy way to entertain yourself. I'm not saying you can't play video games or not here to light on the drawbacks of video games. Just be careful about what you are playing, what your kids are in to and how to deal with that.
