Addicted to video games

Lately, I have been obsessed with a very entertaining and storytelling game, Max Payne! It is a very good game and in my opinion it broadens peoples imagination towards storytelling. Some people like books and others think movies bring stories to life but video games actually make you feel like you are in the persons shoes. Video games tend to bring you into the environment of the game. It could have good effects on peoples minds but it also could take it a little too far. Their are games that make people feel like they are invincible and they tend confuse reality with something as fictitious as a video game. Just because a man could leap in the air and get shot multiple times and take muscle relaxers to ease the pain does not mean people can do that in real life. Kids are becoming too absorbed in these video games. The point of these video games is to draw the consumer in and release them from reality for the time being, however, some games should be monitored by the parents so that kids do not simulate what they see in games. In my opinion, as a fellow gamer it is a great experience if you are of age and can differentiate video games from reality. People that become absorbed into movies should try to experience the world of video games because it actually has the gamer interact instead of just watch. It is one thing to watch but it is an entirely different thing to do.

There has been much speculation about the effects of video games and how they contribute to failing grades, unhealthy kids due to lack of exercise, and also social issues. Everything in this world has its pros and cons. Video games, just like everything else, should be done in moderation and also with the parents monitoring it. A person must not lose hind sight of the real responsibilities one has; video games are meant only for an hour break or so to relax and not to consume a persons life. Video games have become some what of a learning tool. They now offer many games and programs that emphasize learning and education and still allow the person to have fun. They also offer things like learning how to cook. Video games are the newest style of bringing writing and imagination to life.
