unit 6 opinionated blog post.

The big popular games such as GTA, and call of duty are always blamed for the acts of violence caused because they have violence in them but some people like to find something to blame other than them selfs. All these games are a age rating of 18 so if anyone younger playing it can be more effected.

but there are some other examples of video games what are blamed for acts of violence on november 22, 1997, thirteen-year-old Noah Wilson died when his friend stabbed him in the chest with a kitchen knife. The mother of Noah, alleged that her son was stabbed to death because of an obsession with the game Mortal Kombat.

On April 20, 1999,18 year old Eric Harris and 17 year old Dylan Klebold killed 12 students and a teacher in the columbine high school massacre. the two allegedly obsessed with the video game doom.

Here is a link to someone having a oppositional reading on Call of duty Ghosts.

Oppositional reading of Call of duty Ghosts.

In the video he talks about the spawning system he says that its terrible and that he always dies from the bad spawning posititions.He says its bad game to play on your own and that you need friends or a group of people to play with. He gets very frustrated at the game, he thinks the guns in the game are very underpowered so it takes alot of shots to kill a playerand thinks the health is very low so its very easy to get killed. I can see why people can get angry and frustrated at these things but I cant see these things being the blame of people creating violence

Games what have a positive reading on the audience.

FIFA has had a positive reading on some of the audience because its made one person who played the game very well known and get a job going to football matches and making videos on them. but he also makes videos on other games. He has also been in tournaments to play FIFA.

GTA V (Elders play gta )

This is a surprising audience who likes to play gta. At the start of the video they say they dont want to be playing gta and saying they dont understand why you want to teach kids to steal a car. As the old people play the game their opinions change and they start to enjoy the game and understand why kids play it. Most of the old people have a positive reading.



Also call of duty has a massive impact on the audience because there is a tournament where you can win 1 million pound. So call of duty gives that opportunity to the audience. this will help them finically. i have a preferred reading because I think its a great way to meet new people on also try and get your self known.
