Gamespot's Kallie Plagge joins Cheddar to discuss the reignited debate around the issue. She reveals what gaming companies have done to combat the issues in the past and where she sees the conversation heading moving forward. Plagge says studies show there is no correlation between school shooters and their frequency playing violent games. Americans have been debating this topic since the Columbine shooting in the late Nineties. The associate editor reveals whether she thinks the Parkland tragedy will put added pressures on game developers. Then, we break down some of the classic games poised for comebacks on modern-day consoles. The popular racing title "Burnout" is returning to XBOX One and PS4. We also learn about the resurrection of the beloved SNES game "Secret of Mana."
