Got to say "WOW"
 Haven't video games come a LONG way  I remember Sega World Rally at the old arcade, compared to today it is (like me) a relic  BUT, walking past a kid today engrossed in his game I got to thinking  The graphics and detail has come such a long way, but they still rely on "fuzzy Logic" (you know, the game keeps you on the road within parameters or keeps the car going, even though its TOTALLED ! ) Watching this "soon to be Learner driver" doing 160kph on the grass, sideways, and hit a 25mt gum tree (that flew to bits) only to keep on driving with "no damage" WTF ? What chance do the youth have when they have this sort of approach to driving  Thoughts............

Same thinking as violent movies create murders, rock and roll music will be the death mankind.
Plenty of dumb drivers out there....video games wasnt the reason.

Theres no real evidence to support crossover from fantasy to real life (happy to stand corrected) other than in the incidences of mental health issues related to severe dissasociation and or psychosis.
Values, language and exposure to inappropriate material are different, but no different to kids being exposed to movies with inappropriate material. But it is something i find interesting and did a little research in, particularly male masculinity in children and being obscured through figurines and media
