I coould go to war and come back less emotionally scarred than someone who faught in vietnam because I've killed hundreds of thousands of simulated people, aliens, robots, and zombies. Watch the way a kid plays House of the Dead or Virtua Cop next time your in an arcade and you will see what im talking about.
