You have to differentiate the kind of violence here.
If you mean "going berserk and kill everyone in an amok shootout"-violence, my answer is definatly NO. No human could possibly come from a video game to being a massmurderer just by playing that game.
BUT if you mean minor violence, like being slightly more aggressive and cruel to others, school yard violence for example, thats another thing. I had plent opportunity
to observe my 2 little cousins' reaction on violent pc games (like Counterstrike, Battlefield.... mortal kombat :| ). They tend to get all hyper after playing it, testing moves on each other and are also very impressed by the bloodshet in those games.
