Video games (it doesn't matter which genre) can shape a person's personality. However, the media takes it a bit too far. If everybody who played CoD would be a mass murderer we'd have a serious problem. This personality shift won't make a person confuse real life with games. Causing violence in a video game isn't the same as causing violence in real life either. Death in games doesn't have consequences, but in RL it does and people are usually aware about that.

This obviously doesn't apply to everybody but I think that's how it usually is.
