Computer gaming is a positive thing because well, I am about to explain here
I believe Computer Gaming is not a real threat to a teenagers life. Gaming can also teach you new Skills, like in some games such as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, you have to work together in team deathmatch to get your team to most points or work as a team in Search and Destory to plant explosives and destroy the enemies and it can give you quick thinking skills for Example: Oh no! you've spoted a terrorist, Do you shoot him? Duck for cover? or maybe he wants to be friends.
Games like Oblivion let you learn Roleplaying skills where you could be a theif, or a noble knight, a notorious Adventuer, even a murduer! although it would be better if it had a multiplayer. Some games teach you maths or english, or even science, some games are simulations such as Sims 3, a game of life Simulation Game where you can live another life and make some simulation characters happy. Gaming is also a cheap source of entertainment unless your some Hobo, an example there is a Game that costs $76.50 that could last you months or even years! and theres a movie in a theater that costs $11.00 that you only see for only about an hour or two. This is why I believe that Compute Gaming is a Positive thing not a Negative. Why would gaming be bad for an average teenager?
An Average teenager can have a balance of games and average activites. so in conclusion that is why computer gaming is a positive thing not negactive. so I hope you believe computer gaming is a normal thing in teenagers lives after all we are in the 21st Centuary, and no average teenager should really say that computer gaming is a unnatural thing, why do say some people say that gaming is bad? there are a number of varieties of games from educational to horror from Action to drama to Mystery to Simulation and so many other wonderful varieties, so go on and play some games! go on! dont waste precious time! go on and shoot some body! (not literally) or do some learning! and make find yourself in a pure gaming paradise, especially if you are bored on a cold rainy day, its the perfect time to get on the PC or other gaming console.
