Some years ago, children sat in front of their television with their TV games. Nowadays, people can play electronic games wherever they want to, and the range of games and players has grown a lot. Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages to this development.
Many people think there are no advantages to electronic games but in my view, there are several. One is that children can learn to think quikly to solve a problem, for example, in Tetris or other fast games. Another advantage is that people can work together in ther games such as building a village together or fighting together. Also, people can forget their worries and relax. Commuting on the train is boring, but if your phone has games on it, you can spend the time more enjoyable and not get stressed because of the crowded train.
On the other hand, there are also disadvantages to playing electronic games. They can be bad for your eyes, or people can get addicted and play all night. People sometimes forget that the games life is different from real life, and they may hurt someone. For example, kids may hit another child and expect him to not be hurt. Another point is that they are expensive, and the company always sell new ones, so you have to spend more and more money.
In conclusion, electronic games have advantages and disadvantages. People should decide by themselves if the advantages are bigger than the disadvantages.
