We are in the 21st century, the age of communication, the age of technology and no one can deny that they have played video games, be it the angry birds they are playing on their phones or Call of Duty at their consuls all savored this fascinating but also defined "dangerous" experience. But what makes it interesting for us, why we like shooting or throwing birds at pigs so much. And does it make us violent and should be banned? To answer these questions we must first answer a simpler question. Why do we play video games? I mean, isn't real life more interesting? Why would anyone play a football game on their console instead of going out and playing in real life. Video-game-addiction.org (http://www.video-game-addiction.org/what-makes-games-addictive.html) says there are several hooks to make us appreciate video games. These areThe high scoreThis hook has been used for many years, whether it is pac-man or need for speed, the player tries to beat the records made by other players and sometimes his own recordsBeat the gameNot all games have this , but most games reward the player at the end of the tasks they performRole-playingRole-playing is a game in which you do more than simply play.

However, there is also very strong evidence to show that video games do not contribute to violence. In the United States, for example, arrests for juvenile homicide decreased by 71.9% between 1995 and 2008, while the popularity of violent video games increased. This data can show us that the more children play video games, the fewer child killers there will be. This might be a good idea because if it can teach you how to kill, it should also be able to teach you how to do other things that are also good for society. Not everything is bad in video games. In fact, it has been proven that it can teach you school subjects and even help you get into shape. Yes, you read that right, you can lose weight by playing video games. There are some consoles like Nintendo Wii or Xbox Kinect that work when you move.
