Warning: This Game Can Be Hazardous To Your Health

[JIVA]

in america - you can sue a fast food company for selling food you ate - and got fat from.

what those people don t realize is, they basicly say "i am too dumb to know that fat food makes me fat!"



but in the case of videogames it is not THAT easy. it is a rather recent developement that the society realized addictions to videogames ( while addiction to gaming is rather old though ) - mostly, cause only recently, videogames are played by older people than just teens.

people have to realize that a videogame addiction can be as serious as a narcotics addiction. people loosing their social connections, becoming estranged to friends, finding excuses to play their game, letting games become more important than real life.

not something to make fun about really. in japan, studies showed that a significant portion of the generation became considerably less efficient when it came to pro-active behaviour for the whole country ( especially in terms of economical output ) - and that is when its perceived as a serious problem i daresay.
