The gaming industry keeps pushing the limits of technology, and the progress and innovations created in the process will benefit more than just the gaming industry. Also, gamification in general has a huge potential to transform mundane and boring tasks into something more enjoyable and motivating. I believe we could accomplish so much more if working, studying and chores felt as exciting and rewarding as playing video games.

Or, you could learn to find joy in doing work that is inherently difficult. Go watch Mary Poppins. 🙂

Is it a waste? Or is it a form of entertainment, socialising and learning that some people are adverse to?

Some peoples say that video games are dangerous for Young people and can lead them into crime.
But this I information don’t have any prouf and the video games can allow us to go in a new dimensions our own dimensions is much more like a dream.
And the video games don’t stop to be improve years by years maybe soon we’ll be able to live our owns videos games.

I’m sure he’ll get a lot of down votes; he failed to mention the TED logos: “global warming”.

Videogames are a great way to escape from reality. Reality can be nasty, scary and hurtful. It’s like drinking some fruit juice after having drunk a bitter medicine. But, if you drink many liters of fruit juice all at once, you may die.
The right question to ask ourselves is: why we, as a society, are producing so many people who need so badly to escape?

Many video games make effective use of addictive qualities to establish long-term behavioral patterns. If you use the same principles but geared towards productivity and personal improvement instead of leisure and consumerism, I think it would be profoundly beneficial to society.

Also interesting that it helps break down the barriers between people (cultures/nations), diminishing prejudice, etc. For example, at the moment, many video war game players in the USA and Russia are virtual friends and having fun.

Depressed dudes who escape reality trough video games are a problem, I know it’s better to play than to use drugs, but I feel this is a problem bc of how some games never end, and trap easily teens and not in endless loops
