There are a lot of rumors about how video-games are damaging the minds of young people and increasing violent tendencies. It is possible that this may be the case with some people, but it's usually not the case with most.
A lot of it has to with the content of the video game in question, the age of the child, and the child's mental health and behavior.
If a child that has a history of violent behavior, then the chance that a video game will drive them to commit a violent act is higher.
Most people that you hear about that supposedly killed themselves because of Video Games, actually did so because of other issues. Like depression.
The short answer is "no", video games are not killing kids.
