My thoughts about gaming...

To be fair I understand why a lot of people get so addicted to games. I too, when starting a new game can get way too into the game and completely lose track of time. However, I don't see how people can spend all their time on them. I think people use games far too often. In particular, young children who should be outside exploring the world are stuck indoors constantly with their eyes stuck to the television playing games that they are probably to young to be playing!! 

Obviously not all gamers are the same but there is a huge amount of people who regularly queue for hours in the cold just to get the latest games first, which i really see as a waste of time. It's up to the individual or the parents if they want to allow their children to play games constantly but I don't think that its very good parenting to allow children to stay in constantly. They should be socialising and making new friends (not including the friends they have on Xbox live). Children need to learn about the real world and playing Call Of Duty isn't going to do that. 

However, there are some games that are actually educational and can help children to develop and learn. So they're not all bad... :)
