Vedio Games

Games teach players to cooperate. ( T )

I agree because many games require 2 or more players to play this game. So players learn to cooperate, help each other, encourage and support each other in order to win the game. Furthermore,they learn how to play as a team and learned that team work has a lot of advantages than individual work.


2-Video games are addictive. ( T )

Even if you play few hours a day, after a while you will play more until you become addicted to the game. You may think that you can dominate yourself but it's very difficult because video games create either negative or positive feelings that push you to continue playing. Positive feeling can be as if you won a stage of a game, you will feel excitement and pleasure which leads you to continue playing to achieve victory. On the other hand, negative feeling creates when you loose a game, you feel upset and insist to win the game so you play and play and play until you win. So both feeling leads you to continue playing until you be addicted.


3-Video games create problems in relationships. ( T )

In my opinion, this statement is true because the player doesn't spend time with their relationships as much as with playing games which creates many problems. For example, one of my friend's husband ,if I can say , he is " addicted to computer games " . After he comes from work, he spends most of his time in front of the computer playing games in a way that annoyed his wife. This bother her a lot cause whenever she wants to talk to him or goes out with him, he is busy playing games. She felt that the video game is her "enemy". As a result, she spent most of her time outside the house with her friends which creates a lot of troubles in their relationship.
