Violent video game effects linger in brain
CHICAGO (Reuters) - Teens who play violent video games show increased activity in areas of the brain linked to emotional arousal and decreased responses in regions that govern self-control, a study released on Tuesday found.
The study used functional magnetic resonance imaging to record tiny metabolic changes in brain activity in 44 adolescents who were asked to perform a series of tasks after playing either a violent or nonviolent video game for 30 minutes.
The children, with no history of behavior problems, ranged in age from 13 to 17. Half played a T-rated first-person shooter game called "Medal of Honor: Frontline," involving military combat, while the other group played a nonviolent game called "Need for Speed: Underground."
Those who played the violent video game showed more activation in the amygdala, which is involved in emotional arousal, and less activation in the prefrontal portions of the brain associated with control, focus and concentration than the teens who played the nonviolent game.
"Our study suggests that playing a certain type of violent video game may have different short-term effects on brain function than playing a nonviolent, but exciting, game," said Dr. Vincent Mathews, a professor of radiology at Indiana University School of Medicine in Indianapolis and the study's author.
After playing the games, the children completed tasks requiring concentration and processing of emotional stimuli while their brain activity was scanned. Alterations in brain function reflecting changes in blood flow appeared as brightly colored areas on the magnetic resonance images.
"What we showed is there is an increase in emotional arousal. The fight or flight response is activated after playing a violent video game," Mathews said.
The findings were presented at a meeting of the Radiological Society of North America.
The $13 billion U.S. video game industry, with revenue rivaling Hollywood box office sales, is at the center of a cultural battle over violent content. Lawmakers' various attempts to ban the sale of violent video games to children have been blocked by courts in Louisiana, Illinois, California. Michigan and Minnesota.
Video games with a T-rating (for Teen) are considered suitable for ages 13 and older. They may contain violent content, strong language or suggestive themes.
Numerous behavioral and cognitive studies have linked exposure to violent media and aggressive behavior. Now, researchers are using advanced imaging technology to scan the brain for clues to whether violent video games cause increases in aggression.
Mathews said he hopes to conduct additional studies on the long-term effects on brain function of exposure to violent video games.

You are exactly on the right track. Doom 3 is one of the best video games of all time and definitely the best in that genre. The expansion pack, Resurrection of Evil is also decent.

Play this game at night, with the lights out, either with surround sound, or better yet, with headphones. The ambiance of the game is just SICK. Definitely not for the feint of heart.

A bit of warning though. Some weenies find the game a bit too dark. They are too frightened by monsters stalking them and jumping out at them in the dark, is the issue. They can't handle the strategy element of flipping back and forth between guns and the flashlight. If this is you, simply plug in the term "Doom 3 duct tape mod" into any search engine. Download this mod file from any server that has it (there are many of them). Follow the directions to install it (basically put the file in the correct directory). The result will be all of your weapons now have a flashlight mounted on them.

If you still can't handle it, go cry to ya momma cuz I don' care, marine.

For a video card try the PNY Quadro FX 1400 Graphics Board, it's awesome. It's kinda expensive though so for something under $200 try the Xfx GeForce 6800 XTreme Graphics Card. Not sure about any games like that for Pc, but I do know that Doom 3 sucks huge. If you had X360 I would suggest Gears of War, but thats not on Pc.
