At the beginning of the program, a video was played.
The title was, "Is Grand Theft Auto the best game in the video game industry, or a violent game that encourages crime?"
On the screen, there was a lot of news, real-time discussions, screenshots, and game information related to GTA.
"Grand Theft Auto (also known as GTA) received a lot of attention when it was first released. Up until now, it could be said to have swept the global gaming market. Its sales have climbed to millions, and it has even dominated the pages of live-streams and video websites all over the world. Just last week, TGN, the world's leading gaming media, gave Grand Theft Auto a perfect score, describing the game's historical status as a 'masterpiece', 'pinnacle', and 'legend'. "
"But correspondingly, the violent and criminal content in the game has caused controversy around the world. Some experts and opinion leaders believe that the game is encouraging crime, and that it has disrespect for women, animal abuse, and defames certain professions. "
"In the history of video games, there has never been a game that has caused as much controversy as Grand Theft Auto. With the help of next-generation VR, this game has become the most influential game in the world. According to statistics, although there are less than ten million players of the game, there are probably more than one billion players watching the game through livestreams and video streaming websites. Although under the grading system, almost all of the audience can be determined to be adults, such a huge influence still makes people worry. "
"Has Grand Theft Auto been demonized?"
"Will it bring pure entertainment to the players, or will it have a negative impact?"
"If the game has a negative impact on society, who will be responsible?"
"Today's Debate Conference has invited the designer of Grand Theft Auto, the CEO of Thunderbolt Entertainment, Mr. Chen Mo, as well as experts and scholars who have expressed their opinions on the game. Today's topic: Is Grand Theft Auto a product of culture, or is it poison to the mind?"
After a burst of bright lights, the spotlight shone on the host's face amidst the applause from the audience.
The host, Hu Yue, was one of the most famous male hosts in China. He had good facial features, clear logic, and spoke quickly. "Today's Current Affairs Debate" program was able to not deviate seriously in the midst of a heated debate. The host's skills were evident.
"Discussing the current affairs of the day, focusing on the people's livelihood. Hello everyone, I'm the host of "Today's Debate", Hu Yue. Before the program starts, I want to ask the audience in front of their TV and computer screens a question. After this program ends, what kind of entertainment will you choose for the night? Watching TV, reading, or playing games? "
"Games, games. The most popular game right now is what we call the next-generation VR game, Grand Theft Auto. Players around the world prefer to call it by its English abbreviation, GTA. As mentioned in the previous video, it is indeed popular all over the world, but it is also being criticized all over the world. There are people all over the world criticizing it. Is this criticism reasonable? Is GTA a mental poison? Then, may I ask my distinguished guests, Professor Xu? "
Hu Yue raised her hand, and the camera panned to the guest next to her.
Professor Xu, who was the director of the Quality Education Research Center of a certain normal university, had a head full of white hair. He looked to be in his sixties, but his spirit was hale and hearty, and he appeared to be full of fighting spirit. "Of course. I'm not the only one who thinks so. In fact, some research centers in Europe and America have come to similar conclusions. Long-term violent games will cause damage to the left side of the brain, and this symptom is exactly the same as the symptoms of some drugs. "
Hu Yue continued, "When many players hear Professor Xu's point of view, they will think that this statement is too serious. But I have to say that there is indeed such criticism of violent factors in the world. Then, Brother Zhibin, what do you think? "
The camera panned to another male guest, * * * * * * *, about 30 years old, titled "Senior Media Person" Zhang Zhibin.
"I think the term poison is too much. If it's poison in Professor Xu's eyes, then it's at most a carbonated beverage in my eyes. On the surface, it seems like a lot of media is criticizing it, and it seems like the whole country is condemning it, but in fact, there are many players on the Internet who support GTA. Why is it a carbonated beverage? If you drink too much and drink it like water every day, it will definitely cause diabetes. But drink a little less, and it will make your body and mind happy. "
Professor Xu immediately said, "But will drinking a beverage make people commit crimes? But the violent factors that appear in the game will really affect people's behavior, and even instigate it. "
Zhang Zhibin smiled. "But many of us here grew up playing games, especially at my age, but I didn't commit a crime."
Professor Xu waved his hand. "You didn't commit a crime, but it doesn't mean that other people have the same self-control as you, and it doesn't mean that the negative effects of the game are the same for everyone."
Hu Yue hurriedly interrupted, "Okay, let's not talk about the connection now, and just talk about the impact of the game itself. Brother Mugang, Brother Baiyou, what do you two think? "
The camera panned to the other two guests, one titled "Famous Blogger" Yuan Mugang, and the other titled "Father Wolf" Chen Baiyou. The former looked like he was in his fifties, and the latter was in his early forties.
The "Famous Blogger" Yuan Mugang said, "I used to play games, computer games, for one or two months, and I played for ten hours a day. Finally, I have a lumbar disc herniation, and I have it twice a year because of playing games. In recent years, I've been playing games to control myself, and my lumbar disc herniation has never happened again. "
The other "Father Wolf" Chen Baiyou said, "I've always emphasized to my children that if you want to be a winner in this society, you have to put an end to all games. Anyone who indulges in games is a failure, because you have no ability to resist this kind of temptation. But parents like me are the minority in society, after all. What about those parents who are busy with work and have a lot of things to do? They can only accept the poison and temptation of games for their children. "
