 Good side:


            Improved cognitive skills: Studies have shown that playing video games can improve a variety of cognitive skills, including problem-solving, spatial reasoning, and hand-eye coordination.

• Enhanced creativity: Many video games require players to think creatively and come up with new solutions to challenges. This can help to boost creativity and imagination.

Bad side:

           Addiction: Gaming can be addictive, especially for children and adolescents. Excessive gaming can lead to problems such as social isolation, poor academic performance, and sleep deprivation.

• Career opportunities: The gaming industry offers diverse career paths, including game development, design, esports, streaming, and content creation. For some, playing video games professionally can become a lucrative career.

• Family bonding: Video games can bring families together, providing an enjoyable activity for parents and children to share. Multiplayer or cooperative games allow family members to collaborate, strategize, and spend quality time together.

• Cognitive therapy: Video games are increasingly being used in therapeutic settings to help individuals with cognitive impairments, attention disorders, or rehabilitation needs. Certain games can improve focus, coordination, and memory skills in patients.

Remember that the impact of video games can vary greatly from person to person, and moderation and responsible usage are essential to mitigate potential negative effects
