I dont know what it is, sometimes, if i am in a mood, i will kill them repeatedly, testing out my entire arsenal on them, but most of the time, i dont know, i have this weird thing about hurtinng poeplt hat dont deserve it, even if they arent real.
That was the great thing about Return To Castle Wolfenstein... THe only people in the game were Nazis, so it was a great time killing them :)
And shooting up pictures of Hitler.
I think it depends on the feel of the game, in Half-life, you are supposed tobe the good guy, so i act that out. if i was playing GTA, well then, im supposed to be a bad ass, so run the bitch over and get your cash back :)

LoL! I kind of know what you mean. There were times when I was playing GTA and ran over some innocent bystanders, leaving a trail of blood with my tires. I had to pause for a second and think: "Was that supposed to be funny?" This is actually a touchy topic for me (video game violence). We had a speaker at our school once who supposedly produced scientific evidence that playing violent video games and listening to hate-filled music adversely affects your brain ... which leads to high crime rates, and hence the cause of all domestic crimes in America. I sat there with my students just STEAMING! For one, the games and music he was talking about are rated, and are not supposed to be played or listened to by anyone under a certain age. Secondly, our country is actually pretty conservative when it comes to our entertainment. The Japanese have had the over-the-top video game violence for a much longer period of time than we have ... and their crime rates are not nearly as bad as ours. Ever see "Bowling for Columbine"? It is a great film that explores what the hell is wrong is American's that our crime rates are so damn high.
