computer games.. good or bad?

Having Balance to everything would be nice my friend .

but you should also know that sitting in front of the computer to play games for about 7 hours a day is too much. Yes, you may learn things there, you can have friends there. but still, interpersonal relationship cannot be build over there. talking to people online is way different in talking to them in personal. and somehow your just like isolating yourself.

it wouldn't matter when there's nothing in this world that seems worth doing anymore. most people see gaming pointless and leading to nothing. but just as they see gaming pointless, there are people who see real life as being pointless. u go to school, u're expected to study every single damn day of your life just to get a damn job that you're not even happy with. you come home, you complain about it and vent it on your children. worth it?

and what's the point of coming back to real life when you have friends online? they can do things with you and stay around to do so. unlike in real life where everyone's dog gone missing and forgot about you. nobody wants to hang with you 'cos they're too busy with their own lives or being with someone else.

did anyone think about that? that it has nothing to do with the game. the game only provides a kind of environment, as do the internet and TV. and when the gamer compares this environment with reality, does the gamer have a reason to continue living in real life?

when you keep focusing on the what, you forget about the why and the how. it's like asking is having toys good or bad? =.= is having cars good or bad? you already know it depends. you ask these questions so much when you should be asking stuff like why do addicts turn addicts? how can we help addicts? how can we improve these things in our lives?
