I wasn’t allowed to play violent video games as a kid, but the other kids on my street were, so when it was too miserable outside for playing road hockey or shooting each other with toy guns or whatever, we’d play whatever games they had (a lot of Halo especially). Halo CE was my first ever video game, and it never scarred me or anything, and I turned out fine. Obviously everyone’s different and YMMV.
