Yes. They do affect me. However, not always in a negative way.
I find myself frequently looking at the tactical side of things now, how to most effectively neutralize people in groups or alone... call me weird if you will, but it happens.
But I also find that when I'm playing video games, violent ones specifically, any cares, worries, or stress I had earlier in the day dissapear for a time. It gives me a place to vent anger, or to distract myself, or just relieve stress.
Whether you like it or not, violent video games do affect you.
