Video Games cause mental problems

[KingVamp]

Have they even considered that people with mental problems simply tend to be more drawn to electronic stimulation?

That wound be to much as right

my partner play super street fighter 4 for hours on end each day constantly playing it to unhealthy levels, he never has a rest only breaks to use the toilet and eat apart from that it is just street fighter, he talks about it constantly too, if that ain't obsession then god knows what that is!

I'm glad I can always count on GBAtemp to deliver such insightful, thought-out and well-researched responses to these types of articles instead of spitting out a bunch of one-line dismissals that further support the theory that the only people who play games are petulant children.

Pretty much.


I'm guessing nobody on here actually bothered to read the article? Including the guy who made this thread.

Mental problems cause video games.

Anyone who has browsed the WiiWare catalog can attest to this (granted there are *some* good games in there, but still...)

You are all wrong, 4chan causes mental problems.

Anyways, I disagree that video games cause mental problems, it only happens if you play crappy RPG's

[Infinite Zero]

BS :/ I've been playing video games since 5 and I had no mental problem whatsoever. This is so FALSE.

I think it has less to do with video games but more to do with children (or parents to be more correct) substituting physical activity with video games. Only in few cases are video games the core of the problem. People underestimate the importance of exercise for mental health.

They always have to find some way to blame video games....

 

[ProtoKun7]

At least before this I already knew I was crazy.

You'd better have figured that out Mr. All The Time In The World Lord.

Note that it does say 10 and 11 years old... they are literally retarded if they think that effects everyone their research is based on one age group.

u cant post something against games in a gaming forum esp when the facts behind the criticism isnt that apparent
maybe the percentages are too great but if someone were to play games for the whole day ie. 6+ hrs then there is a possibility that you will see his state change
maybe the mental problems alerted to in their percentage are not very visible and its effect wouldnt be something ppl would be worried about
