Is it video games that causes violence or a violent personality likes video games?
I even saw an old arcticle where the makers of Mortal Combat was sued for causing a murder even though the owner was the victim i lost the link to that one though.
Most people don't notice that most of these are just extentions of old human habbits wrapped in a shiny new digital shell and since it's so new it's almost like magic to those who don't participate, quite similar to the Inquisition

It's the violent personality that attracts them to violent video game, definetly not the other way around. You might get pissed off when you lose in a game but it won't cause you to develop a violent personality.
