He performed admirably, but I think saying "games aren't for kids" at the end was a bit of a cop-out.
Some games are for kids. Some of those games (rated T) even involve violence - just look at the Uncharted series. It's rarely murder, more commonly self defence or acts of war, but it's quite clearly fictional. It has nothing in common with real violence at all. Moving the right analog stick and pressing R1 is nothing like actually raising a gun and shooting somebody.
It should also be highlighted (brightly) that it really is fewer than one in a million gamers who would ever do anything like Aurora or Newtown, and to be perfectly honest they may well have done it without games anyway. Mass murder existed long before the Magnavox Odyssey came out in 1972, and certainly before games started approaching recognisable levels of realistic violence in the last decade or so.
