Bad or good? Do they make you dumb or do they promote other types of thinking? Do MMO's (which have an economy) promote economic thought? Is it possible to be addicted and have a girlfriend/social life?

i loooove video games, but it didn't do much good for me today when i started to drive for the first time. i kept pushing the pedal all the way because i wanted to faster! :) it was very hard for me to keep my foot from not pushing all the way... especially since i'm so used to it.
BUT back to the topic they can be good but only to the point where its entertaining enough, but below the line of addiction. in my avid class we read an article about how teenagers in japan are actually having to go to boot camp to get rid of their online gaming addictions!! AND many teens have already died because they did not attend school, eat, sleep, or even go to the bathroom because they did not want to risk their precious game... sooooooo. i think video games are both good and bad. it just depends on your situation. |
