Race Issue in Video Games
In a study, it was found that 71% of lead characters were white males (6). Although isn't a big issue, it was reported that blacks and Hispanics buy and play video games more often than white players.

This can be influential.However, there are even bigger issues such as racial attacks and racial stereotypes in the gaming world.
