Videogames have always prized themselves on letting you, no matter who you are, experience something totally different from reality. They're marketed as something something separate from our real lives, and instead, a sandbox for us to play in. But we have to wonder, is what we're doing, and who we're playing as in those games, affecting how we act or think in real life? Join Jamin on this week's episode of Game/Show as we ask if your Avatar's appearance and race changes your behavior!
