The second artical I read I found extreamly intresting. Video games inparticualry Grant Theft Auto recive bad reputations for being a "violent" game, some news storys even accuse it of being the cause for violence. This artical displays the other side to violent video games. A family of five was driving when all of a sudden their Jeep fliped over. 11-year-old Audrey Plique who was an avide gamer reacted calmly to the situation first pulling her sisters out of the car then waving another car down for more help. Her mother says that because of Grand Theft Auto 4 she knew that the car could catch fire or explode, which is why she acted calmly and quickly to save her family.
