It might in some cases. It's hard to be certain. However, in cases such as high school shootings, I think the only connection is that the person in question happens to be interested in Video Games for whatever reason also happens to make them want to shoot people. I don't believe that violent video games make people want to do violent things. They're simply the most convenient scapegoat people can blame instead of the person who actually did the action in question.

Does violent video games and movies make people violent and more likely to commit crimes?

No violent games/films don't cause that behaviour. Its that parents blame video games/films for teens being out of control, doing drugs, gang-banging, etc. But as I said before violent games/films do not cause this behaviour. I should know because I've watched "violent" films and played "violent" games since I was little. I am a normal adult and am non-violent.
