Hello everyone,
I am only the grand old age of 13, but have always and probably will always be thinking of this topic. Why do we like gaming, violence and getting rewarded for it? Is it the gore, the level of xp or the way you can play with friends and even connect with a complete stranger? Maybe a famous Youtuber plays it or someone next door or in your class. But Science must be driving you to do these actions...?
I have decided to explore the physcology of Gaming!
1. What are the postives of gaming?
2. What are the negatives of gaming?
3. The verdict
Now after reviewing this evidence I am sure some of it comes as no suprise but you may have not known other things. Now I am sure if I said gaming was bad I would cause an uproar (this is a gaming website) but I love gaming and I am sure you do to!
There are many postives and negatives to gaming. There is also a phisical aspect such as posture, lack of sleep etc. But I think that gaming in general is healthy when balanced with phisical activity, school, family and friends!
Peace,
