Doom

I went to web-siteDoom, which is made computer game by ID software, that is among land mark titles in the first-person shooter genre. They have made many kinds of a series of Doom since 1993. Doom has a story in which demons suddenly come out of the teleportation gates, so space marine, who is a character in the game, strikes down every demon. In addition, this web site tells generally about Doom such as game play, making of Doom, engine technology and history. In the article, I found very interesting a paragraph which Doom caused harm that is a period of school shootings in the U.S. when it was found that Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, who committed the Columbine High School massacre in 1999, were aid players of the game. They killed their classmates and teacher in the state of confusing an actuality and unreality.
I don’t like to play computer or video games such as Doom, which is the most violent game, but I feel that I want to play Doom just around once or twice while I read the explanation of Doom because it gave me an interest about its story. Well, young people are probably more interested than me. Nowadays, a lot of young boys spend time playing virtual games out of school. It is becoming a social problem. One of problems is that it has a possibility that young people can confuse actuality and cyberspace. So we can hear that some people who get addicted to virtual games kill people because they want to get people’s item that is used in the game. Other problem is young boys who spend most time playing virtual games cannot do anything but play games. They just paly games alone inside of their own imagination, although they need to study for school, play with friends out of the house and make many friend. As a result, parents and teachers cannot control what children do the whole time. So, they should help children to find something that they can enjoy such as sport, board game and educational computer game. And children is important to realize that playing virtual game is just hobby.
I think this web site tells just information of the Doom, but it is the same as public relations that take consumers into the Doom.
