Violent video games increase aggression.

I never played BioShock, but man, when I saw the trailer for it on TV, and they played Bobby Darin's Under the Sea, I fell in love with it on the spot.

That said, one of the best things I've ever done (and still do) in video games was in Battlefield 2. I loved driving around in a jeep looking for wandering enemies. Then when I spotted one I'd speed up and slam on the horn, right before I ran him over. I always though that was fucking hysterical. Still do it.

In real life, I, at 41, have one traffic ticket to my name and can probably count the number of times I've been pulled over on one hand. I'm just that good/safe of a driver.
So Battlefield 2 has had zero impact on my real driving.
