The arguments against video games are better known than those which are in favour. Opponents say that video games are usually violent.

Opponents think that this screen violence makes players used to violence so that in (2) ______ real lives away from the computer, they accept it much more easily and use it to solve problems or commit crimes. They also say that video games are addictive. Players spend hours and hours in (3) ______ of the screen pushing buttons and moving control sticks; they forget everything else – all the things that have to do for the next day or the future, their other interests and all other pleasures and experiences in life. Video games (4) ______ a drug. Spending all your time on these games obviously means you’re not meeting up with other people either, and opponents claim (5) _____ because of them, players, especially children, are not developing the social skills they need for every day life.
The counter-arguments usually run like this: there is (6) ______ proof that video games make people violent or anti-social, and players know perfectly well that doing something on screen is quite (7) ______ from real life. Some people even claim that video games can be educational – by showing players (8) ______ danger or violence is really like, they encourage them to avoid them in real life and/or to be better prepared for them when or if something bad really does (9) ______. Another argument used is that playing games can help develop players’ reactions – they learn to react (10) ______ quickly to things, and they develop their spatial and problem-solving skills, which they can then transfer to other kinds of learning. Finally, it’s said that the skills you learn playing games are the skills you may well need to use in future jobs that are IT based.
I know what I think about all these arguments. Do you?
