Video Games and computer games new evil or just a new way of getting fun?

The home video game industry is now over 30 years old and video games have become one of the favourite activities of American children around the world. This Day is really rare to see kids in parks playing or doing things outdoors, now is more common to see kids and teenagers all summer or week-ends in their houses playing video games by themselves, multiplayer with friends or family or with people of other countries online. So as we can realize that the definition of fun might change over this years because in the pass when someone told you that he spend all day at home was something really bored but on this days this could actually mean a day with lots of fun But what about the side effects of all of this? Could games like these be harming the young people who play them? On this essay, you will find an analysis on how this game affects young people.

Let’s start with: why people (and we are talking about adults) worry about these games? Well one of the mainly reasons is because kids that play it might not distinguish what is real from what is fantasy so they start acting out what they see on the game, and when the main subject is violence, which is the favourite one of guys, this might become a big problem. Another problem is the addictive nature of these games; we can spend hours and hours in front of the TV, computer, mobile, ipad, etc. playing this games and this is why adults say that as side effects on this society have fat kids, isolated kinds from their friends and family, hyperactive kids, aggressive kids, etc. and like if this was nothing they have also found that some video games cause seizures to the ones who play for an amount of hours or until they arise to an specific level.

In the other hand not everything is wrong with video games. Gaming can actually be very social as we said at the beginning you can on multiplayer mode and with a lot of people, as family and friends, or even meet people who are far away from you or that you even know. Also video games and computer games are known to improve hand-eye co-ordination and help players gain many skills therefore many medical departments are using computer games as a form of physiotherapy. Furthermore Griffiths a professor at Nottingham University wrote in a medical journal that playing games could help children with attention deficit disorders and Research indicates that the children could gain social skills. So as we can see there are a lot of benefits also with video games not only that they are fun!

Getting back to the violence part, yes some video games are violent, and yes some of them have a lot of fantasy but Children have always enjoyed playing pretending to have gunfights and swordfights and also they have grown up with fairy tales so they know that all this stuff don’t happened in real life.
