I, myself, (the answerer) play dozens of video games with violent content, including, but not limited to: Halo and its sequels, Fable, World of Warcraft, Ages of Empires, the Call of Duty series, and other "M" rated, violent video games.

What the MAVV (mothers against violent video games) propagates are studies PAID FOR by the MAVV, and therefore support their argument.
