Abstract
The purpose of this report is to examine the trends of video game purchasing and playing compared to the rate of violent crime in the United States. The report will aim to create a model to show if there is any relationship between video games and violent crime and will be able to shed light on a controversial issue, possibly opening up different avenues to look at reducing the rate of violent crime.
