3 things I learned:
90 percent of children play video games.
The mean age of a gamer is 33 years old!
The vision of those who play video games is better than the vision of those who don't play video games.
2 things I agree or disagree with:
I agree that video gamers are better at successfully multitasking. My brother is a video gamer and a king at multitasking!
Like wine, video games have a number of "beneficial ingredients" and when used in the correct dosage, video games can be beneficial.
1 question I have:
I can see the benefits of puzzle-solving and increased "mind-bending" skills that video games, but I'm curious as to when do people video game "too much" or are there any proven negative aspects of gaming?
I do think that people and kids can spend too much time playing video games. I think the negative effects. One being not connecting with the other people in the room (in the your immediate face-to-face environment). Also not be grounded in the here and now and losing connection with nature. Video game play needs to be limited!
