Are Computer Games Good for You?

Written by Iranga Lakshitha

 We all have different feelings and opinions on this topic. Have you ever thought about it? Computer games are popular among both children and adults. Most computer games are based on artificial intelligence (AI). Nowadays, around 90% of people play computer games. These games are often interesting, enjoyable, and fun. Many people play them in their free time to relax and unwind.

I am a computer game player myself. I play computer games in my free time, and in my opinion, they are very entertaining. Some of my favorites include Free Fire, Call of Duty, and PUBG, but my absolute favorite is Free Fire. I usually play for about two hours a day. In Sri Lanka, around 70% of people play Free Fire. This game has excellent quality and features. I think you might be a Free Fire fan too! My future dream is to become a gaming streamer.

Are you a computer game player?

There are both positive and negative aspects of computer games. Now, let me discuss these two points further.

Positive Aspects of Computer Games:

• Helps to relax the mind
• Can make money through streaming

After a long day of work, playing computer games can help relax your mind and reduce stress. Gaming is fun, engaging, and provides entertainment. Nowadays, many people have turned gaming into a career by streaming their gameplay online. Gaming streamers can be found worldwide, making money while doing something they love.

Negative Aspects of Computer Games:

• Addiction
• Wasting money

One of the major downsides of gaming is addiction. Playing games daily can lead to addiction because of the engaging characters and features. In extreme cases, some people become so addicted that it negatively affects their lives. In some unfortunate instances, excessive gaming addiction has even led to tragic consequences like suicide. Another issue is spending too much money on in-game purchases, which can become a financial burden over time.

Conclusion

In conclusion, computer games have both positive and negative aspects. It is important to play in moderation and maintain a balance between gaming and other responsibilities.
