Call To Order
A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device such as a TV screen or computer monitor.
TYPES OF VIDEO GAMES
- Action
Action games tend to have a large amount of violence due to their fast-paced nature. This is the category that most games fall under. Some games are milder but may contain suggestive themes. Action games may pit person against person or person against animal/alien. Some examples of such problematic games include Halo, Star Wars: Jedi Knight and Enter the Matrix.
- Adventure and Role Playing
Adventure and role playing games are usually less graphic than action games and typically have an element of fantasy. Many times these games are combined with a role playing element and allow the character to initiate dialogue. While less intense than action games, they often do include violence. It should be noted that these games tend to be among the most addictive due to the narrative fantasy themes. Examples of this genre are Starfox Adventures, Final Fantasy, Legend of Mana and Billy Hatcher.
- Arcade
Arcade games can be almost anything from the violent Street Fighter to the classic Pacman. This category includes games that cover the entire spectrum of ratings. Many older arcade
games have been updated and turned 3-D. Some examples are Pacman, Soul Caliber 2 and Frogger.
- Strategy
Strategy games most often involve tactical movement of troops and/or players. These games may be warfare based or may be as simple as chess. The content of many of these games can be appropriate for children but they tend to be difficult to play. Combat is often slower paced and allows time for strategic thinking. Some examples are Advanced Wars I & II.
- Simulation
Simulation games are often aircraft simulations. You get to fly a jet or a helicopter. Most have nothing more to them other than the destruction of enemies; rarely they use excessive language. Some games in this category include Secret Weapons Over Normandy and SimCity.
- Driving
Driving games are most often racing, but some are also crash derby or mission-based. Players usually get a choice of car and get better and better cars over time. Some of these games are Project Gotham Racing, ATV Offroad Fury, and the highly offensive Grand Theft Auto.
- Puzzle
Puzzle games are almost never rated higher. They all take thinking and logic skills. A common puzzle game is Tetris. Many others are Tetris-like or involve color matching skills. Many games incorporate puzzle aspects but are not true puzzles. Some of the puzzle-incorporating games fall under Action or Role-Playing.
BENEFITS OF PLAYING VIDEO GAMES
- THEY COULD IMPROVE YOUR VISION.
“Don’t sit too close to the television” used to be a common parental refrain without a lot of science to back it up. Instead, scientists are discovering games in moderation may actually improve your vision. Players showed significant, sometimes normalized improvement in the affected eye.
- YOU MIGHT GET A CAREER BOOST.
Because certain genres of games reward and encourage leadership traits—providing for “communities,” securing their safety, etc. It has also been noted that players can display a correlating motivation in their real-world career goals. Improvising in a game can also translate into being faster on your feet when an office crisis crops up.
- PLAYERS CAN BECOME FASCINATED WITH HISTORY.
Many games use actual historical events to drive their stories. Those characters and places can then spark a child’s interest in discovering more about the culture they’re immersed in.
- THEY MAKE KIDS PHYSICAL.
While some games promote a whole-body level of interaction, even those requiring a simple handheld controller can lead to physical activity. Sports games that involve basketball, tennis, or even skateboarding can lead to children practicing those same skills outdoors.
- THEY HELP EASE PAIN.
It’s common to try to distract ourselves from pain by paying attention to something else or focusing on other body mechanisms, but that’s not the only reason why games are a good post-injury prescription. Playing can actually produce a pain-killing response in our higher cortical systems.
- YOU'LL MAKE NEW SOCIAL CONNECTIONS.
Gamers are sometimes stigmatized as being too insulated, but the opposite is actually true. The rise of multi-player experiences online has given way to a new form of socializing in which players work together to solve problems.
- THEY MAY CURB CRAVINGS.
Players preoccupied with indulging in overeating, smoking, or drinking might be best served by reaching for a controller instead
