Games

shoot people and claim to my team “THEY ARE OUT OF HERE!”, because when I shoot someone I shoot them 5 times to ensure they're OUT. Another a reason is i'm really good at it. I rarely get shot and most of the time its friendly fire. One time the game ended and my best friend decided to light me up with paintball from 10 feet away. It hurt a lot. Today i’m going with that same best friend (which cannot be named). He is pretty good at paintball. Once we got there we geared up. I brought Camo…

According to Brad Bushman video games have become more violent since the 1970’s. Studies have shown that children are starting to act more aggressive. Children have also committed more acts of violence. The game “Death Race” has encouraged any one who is playing it to run over the “gremlins” that actually look like humans. Even the arcade video game “Pac-Man” has faced criticism for the excessive amount of cartoon violence that is in that game. In the 1990’s violence in video games have become…

violence in video games and in music are the reason this generation of gamers are becoming more violent and more aggressive. In reality, it is the parent 's responsibility to monitor and watch their child, a lot of people tend to let their child sit and play a game for hours at a time. Parents are using media, television, and video games kind of as a babysitter, as long as they are quiet and out of there way it is ok. It is not acceptable to put the blame on the creators of these video games or…

Throughout the last decade video games have received a lot of heat from the media in terms of the amount of violence in each game and how it potentially influences violent behavior in children and adolescents. This misconception can be disproven if you take into account the environmental factors, psychological factors, and the individual interactions with people met through online video gaming. These three factors have a greater effect than the actual game itself and it’s where a lot of the…

The “good behavior game” is a long term behavioral change used in classrooms. The basis of the game is to create a competition. Each class is broken into teams and given specific rules. If these rules are broken contingencies would be placed onto the team. This behavioral activity has had a long-term effect on behavior since the early 1990’s (Kellam, Ling, Merisca, Brown, and Ialongo). The late 1960’s brought the first empirical observations of this game. Their data showed that talking and…

“Game Day” isn’t a regular day at Xavier University of Louisiana; it’s a day for Xavier’s Golden Nugget’s to defend their pride, while we cast our wide angel lens towards the basketball court, capturing the engulfing reflection pool in all of its pride. Athletics are a big part to most universities and students’ life. Either they love to participate or some love to go and cheer their peers and colleagues on. I learned this while working at a Xavier’s Women basketball game. I wanted to see my…

missed playing the other sports, but I got over it once we started our off-season work-outs. I thought I could handle anything thrown at my team, until we made it to the Junior Varsity Championship. My team had a great season before the game, but after the game none of that matter. Moreover, I knew I was going to be on a young team with great talent, I just did not know what to expect. Our team was made up of three core players, which were eighth graders, and five solid, complementary…

TThe Game That Changed My Life Ever since I first started to walk, sports have been a major part of my life. When I walk on to the pitch I am transformed into another world where all else fades away except the game. Two years ago, when I was a sophomore in high school, the game changed my entire life forever. After many time-consuming and demanding practices my team finally earned a place in the conference tournament for the first time in decades. The game was days away, but I could already…

Last year was my first year playing I only had a couple friends I wasn’t the best at it but I got better the more I practiced. I wanted to be on offense every game but it turns out that I was the best at defense. My friend scored a lot the whole season but I never got a chance to so I asked the coach if I could play offense the next game. So I got to try it I got many more chances to score but I never did I wanted it so bad but the ball kept going over the net. Halfway through the season it got…

heart was pumping just a little faster than normal. “We got this,” stated Austin with a strong loud voice. “Key words to winning this game, said Coach, get running, play as a team, and be loud. Still waiting to access the court we were all like wild animals. As we ran onto the court and started with lay ups, then we get into 3 on 2. “Bleep” the horn rang, “It’s game time and I’m warm because I’m already sweating!” The ball is tipped and we have it Trey goes up the court passes to Austin and he…
