Discussion Questions re Video Games

2.
I agree violent video games can are related to violence and aggression for youth. Teenagers learn using violence to deal with their problems from violent video games. In video games, they can fight or kill people if they are not satisfied with them. However, this is not correct, violence is the worst method to solve problems in real life. For some teenagers, they may confuse the reality and video games, and think they can solve problems by violent way as video games. Therefore, I believe video will affect children, especially those who didn’t develop their personalities completely.

In my opinion, players will get addition with video games. Video games’ designers always make different goals or monsters to keep players’ interest. According to players’ degrees increasing, the goals will become more difficult to receive or monsters will be stronger than before. In order to pursue their companions or raise their degree, game players will keep playing the game instead of doing something else. In addition, many players join in the groups or have companions inside video games. As a result, they like to spend more time on playing games with their on-line friends

Many game players may control their time well on playing video games, they still can keep their careers, schools, family and social relationships. However, for some serious players, they spend most of their time on playing games, they forget dates with their friends or spouses. Players can not distinguish real live from video games. Finally, they are more likely to care about what happens in the video games than real lives. Some player with serious addition of video games may lose their jobs, fail school or break marriage or social relationship with others from over-playing video games.
