What are 3 reasons video gaming is good for you

What are 3 reasons video gaming is good for you
well obviously it depends on the video game and how much you play it, but:

reason #1: alot of people who play games (that involve a bit of creativity) are found to be more creative.

reason #2: depending on the game it can releave stress (although some vidoe games add stress be careful around those)

reason #3: in a few brief cases in some MMOs (massive multiplayer online games) you need to (or is preffered that you) chat and socialize. in some cases you can be better at socializing, and being freindly from this. BUT in most cases it ends up being the other way around.

reason #3: (in case you arnt talking about MMOs) some games involve lots of strategy, and can help make you "strategize" better in some stuations of life.

on the most part though, there are more negatives than positives, on whether its good for you or not.

but most people play video games for FUN. its like playing a boardgame, not many benefits, but it is FUN.

also remember video games like Wii Fit, Starcraft, HECK! even pokemon, will have alot more POSITIVE stuff than lets say Call of Duty.

also keep in mind that video gaming in short amounts of time is healthy, but hours apon hours IS NOT. think of it like a board game, in terms of wether its healthy or not.
