Perks of Video Gaming

The world has come to change extremely fast and become more digital in comparison to previous times. Advanced technologies resulted in the creation of a new way of life among the people of the world, which has multiple different features. Within the online realm, people gained an opportunity of self-acknowledgment in the online realm, which can be considered as an unfavorable outcome. Video games are one of the most popular and widespread ways of realizing personality and expressing the character. Many people believe that self- realization in the virtual world may stimulate a person to further self-development. However, others do believe that video gaming can lead to addiction and causes harmful effects and even dangerous consequences on children and adults. For me, I feel as if video games have greatly benefited my life in a crazy amount of ways. A study from the University of Toronto finds that people who regularly play action video games, like Call of Duty or Assassin’s Creed, are better able to learn new sensorimotor tasks, improve hand-eye coordination, than people who do not play video games. The findings indicate that people who play video games may be better at learning new sensorimotor patterns. Furthermore, people who play action video games could enhance their abilities to learn new skills. For people with poor hand-eye coordination, like individuals with autism, video games could help them develop their skills. My experience of playing video games has to lead to findings similar to those at the University of Toronto.
