COMPUTER GAMES!!!
A FANTASY FOR MANY PEOPLE NOW A DAYS. A WAY OF LOOKING AT THE REAL WORLD FROM GRAPHICAL POINT OF VIEW. COMPUTER GAMES IS AN ADDICTION. IT IS LIFE TO MANY PEOPLE. THEY ARE EMOTIONALLY ATTACHED TO THIS WORLD AND THEIR PROLONGED EFFORT INTO THIS KEEPS THEM AWAY FROM REALITY.
AS A COIN HAS TWO SIDES SO DOES THESE GAMES, THE WORLD PROVIDES A SOOTHING ATTITUDE TO MANY AND ALSO DEVELOPS AN AGGRESSIVE ATTITUDE WHEN THEY INDULGE IN THESE ACTIVITIES….. THUS IT DEPENDS UPON US TO ACCEPT WHICH PHASE OF COIN…
How I am percepting the future canvas of computer games,one thing is very noticeable here,that the hours of users who play the games will definitely increase because of its increasing obsession in the present times and the direct impact of this increasing time of playing will come in the forms of “hyper tension,blood pressure,loss of vision,and many more severe diseases” which is having the catastrophic impact on the anatomy of human being.The other bad impact of the games is less social contact of users even though “man is a social animal”.so i am seeing human being as a “Living Manaquein”.
*Definitely if we talk about structure of games that will surely improve in the matter of their “effects,animations,graphics” which will definitely provide a leisure of recreation in the social arena.
Computer Games have always been the best way to relax and have fun among the youth. Like the other meaningful inventions,these games also have a number of pros and cons. But I believe that as long as one is not addicted to something that may hamper him in some ways or the others, the person should always be allowed to go for it. But when it comes to Computer Games I think people often get addicted to it and this spoils them . So I would suggest all to read this article and understand the basic advantages , disadvantages and Career opportunities in field of Computer Gaming.
