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.

We also learn about the resurrection of the beloved SNES game "Secret of Mana."
