If China's state news channel is to be believed, then online games are responsible for drugs, murder and teen pregnancy as well.
In part 2 of "Confession of a Murderer - Focus on Pornography and Violence in Online Games", China Central Television (CCTV) reported that a Chinese man is serving life sentence for committing five murders in order to obtain virtual items for an online game.
The Chinese channel then claimed that 80% of the violent prison inmates have turned to crime because of online games.
Another example cited by the program is a 14 years old girl who were influenced by online dancing game, "Audition", to start having one night stands with strangers and ended up having two abortions.
