Video Games and Their Effects on the World Today


In today’s society, video games are, unless being judged by those who appreciate and participate gaming, usually tainted with a bad reputation.  Time and time again, the term violence is brought up, and when something violent happens, video games are thrown into the metaphorical hot-seat.  While violence is a major aspect of gaming in today’s society, there are also many passive and peaceful games which can positively affect a person.  Video games can affect many areas of a person’s life, and what are some of those effects?  Are violent video games as harmful or mentally altering as they are advertised to be?  And what really happens with violent video games and the mind?  If there is an incident that occurs, is it really the game's fault?  There are many positives and negatives that are results of video games, but there is more going on in the mind than just your brain “turning to mush,” as many parents would say.
