Entangling Roots Response

I thought this short essay was good for many different reasons. It made me think about why I play video games, and how they can have a negative affect on my life. Games can become so involving and addicting that your virtual world becomes reality. This seems to usually happen with people who get involved in RPG's. This is one of the first convincing pieces that I have read on this issue. The essay also talks about how video games can affect someone's social and behavioral skills, but only if these games are played for an extended period of time. Thats why games should be played in moderation in order to prevent these things from happening. This essay makes the issue of gaming relevant since most people play them. Thats why I find it interesting and effective because almost everyone in this generation can relate to playing games.
