Shenglong, Bryan C., GOH C. Sheng, KOH Z. Han, LIN Jiaqi Jiaqi, and Dominic S. Kuangwei. "Video Game Controversy." ssagsg.org. N.p., July 2007. Web. 27 Oct. 2011.
In this article, the authors explain what video game controversy is, how it is thought to effect people, and some examples of it. Sexuality and nudity, violence, and religion are some of the many controversial topics of video games. The authors' intent of this article was to inform people of the topic and the intended audience would be anyone who wanted to read it. There are no apparent biases or fallacies. This was a very good article on this topic and it had a lot of information, although the examples of video games affecting real life seemed kind of bogus.
I found this article to be biased in the fact that it only gave one side of the story. If you were to write a paper on this you would need both sides. I also felt that most claims that video games have affected real life feel contrived. I have played violent video games and so have my friends but you don't see us doing any school shootings. All in all, this article did receive good information, but I felt it was one-sided.
