i don't think they do.
Some kid isn't gonna "get violent" all of a sudden because of some game that is about something that is already happening in the news, movies, or TV already... Justin £¤¥¤£™ |

Generally I dont think they shouldnt.. but if say a kid spends most of his time playing them.. and has been playing from a young age, then yes, it would distort their sense of reality, because if they start playing those games when they're young and still developing a sense of right and wrong, they may get confused.. but hey, that's what game ratings are for.. if onli ppl would abide by them..
