The topic I want to discuss is the effects of adolescence playing violent video games. Some people say that violence in video games have negative impacts on kids while others say that it has no effect at all. The main reason I want to chose this topic is because, I can relate to it and I want to find the answer for myself. Who knows maybe video games did effect me and I might not even know it. This is a topic I am interested in. and it does come up in conversation in some of my social circles. Therefore, I really want to address this situation; I have the motivation.It is a relevant topic because violence has increased in the past years between youth. Also the video game market is constantly increasing and has been promoting violent games to kids. I still consider myself a kid at times, but I’ll try not to be bias. There are many perspectives I could analyze for this assignment, I’m just not sure which one I should use. Some of the writers are gamers themselves, while others are scientists. They both are people who care of the topic and have their own ethos. In a situation like this pathos doesn’t really come into play based on the articles I have read. Most of them are simply using logos. I think I’ll have to chose better articles because the ones I currently have are very similar. I personally have my own opinion and I will try my best to resist the temptation of wanting to voice it. (I’ll save that for the next assignment.) One question I have is based on a statement said in class. How would I go beyond just saying the pros and cons of the situation. Also I want to ask how the intro or thesis would be formatted, is there an example that can be given in class; maybe referring to Emma Watson’s speech?
