Games in society

excess playing time

Obsessive gaming can result in high levels but also can effect your social reality, you can become detached from the real world . excessive playing is where you continue to play a game none stop.

this can lead to some people not eating and or drinking and dieing of a heart attack or starvation.

 

 

social isolation

 social isolation is where you disconnect your self from the out side world and stay alone in a room and be alone the only contact to the out side world you have if talking through text and game chat. Social isolation can effect your brain to fear the out doors and not want to be part of normal life and you will not want to meet people.

 

social cost

Gameing can cost your time and money , but it can in some cases make you isolated and become scared of the real world it. Can effect your mental efficacy and your brain may start to just store information on games and that is all this can effect your social life and your learning abailty.

separation from reality

Some gamers become separated from reality this is where you start to believe that canes are true and real and you are not compleatly well sane , this can lead to your maybe thinking that killing some one is fine or that you can fly because you can in a game , or in a more common area you just do to see the real world and you stay away from in the game is the world to you.

 

 

education Benefits

 With all the information given about gaming it can be really good for you , gaming a a virtual world where anything can be simulated so your brain takes the information in like it is really happening , so some games help you because you brain takes the information and stores it, for example if your playing a game about shooting your brain can take in the information and store it , it takes in how you hold it and load and fire it . (I used this example because I have done that  my dad is ex-military and some of the time I'm a better shoot then him and I took to shooting like it was my second nature) 

 

thinking and strategy skill

Like I said in the education benifits games can also effect your think and strategy skills for one , I play strategy games a lot and it keeps my mind sharp and I have to work with multiple units to take a situation and win this also effects how I think my mind will be on one topic then with switch and also my reactions are much faster. 

Future impact

the future impact of gaming is most likely going to be virtual reality , we will be going in to a digital environment as a avatar and experience what they experience, this will be most likely be used to speed learn things and get through school and used for training for jobs creating a digital simulation of what they want you to do and you see how it works out in the sim and them judge your results to see what happens , things like what i have described get to your brain and access your memory and get stuck in like you have really done it in real life.

impact of mainstream development

 

Game development is constantly requiring more advanced hardware, an example of this is the iPhone gyroscope. The gyroscope allows the user to turn their body and the game to react and show from different angles as if you where inside the game and physically looking round. Game development is progressing rapidly as we are now getting 3D equipment in our homes for playing games on and using things this to make the game more immersive to the play to give the feel of actually being there.
