That is a fact. Anything that is given to you in moderation isn't harmful although excessive amounts can be which can lead to becoming an addiction. Having self control is key, it's easier said than done though.
Exactly. Moderate gaming is the most important thing to all gamers. If you operate within the safe zone, then you need not worry about getting into mess of getting addicted to the game which is very wrong.

I was 2-3 years old when I started gaming when my dad got me the original Nintendo.
Wow, that's so awesome to to have already started playing games so early. I was still too caught up with getting attached to my mother as a first child. The game was there but I never played at 2 years.

Been playing Assasin's Creed Odyssey on my laptop. I must say, it is by the far one of the best AC titles I've played. Really involving and a lot of content.
Assasin's Creed rocks. I can't ever imagine how time flies because it's been so long since I had played the game Assasin's Creed last. It's a very good game with lots of fighting in it. I haven't played Odyssey. Tell me what it feels like.

Both of you missed the joke.
I can't believe that you guys missed the joke.
Haha, you are my friend a guy with one hell of a sense of humor. So, you were practically messing with us by calling Pepsi an energy drink. I can't help it laughing all over again after seeing that you were just pulling our legs.

The only energy drink I know of is Pepsi :V
Are you seriously kidding me with that statement? Pepsi being an energy drink? It's a soft drink and not an energy drink. Try and Google energy drinks and you will see lots of them.

Not really, I don't play games as often as I probably should. Really, anyone can become addicted to anything, it is not just gaming.
This is a fact. It's not just only games that one can be addicted to but just about anything one's gets involved with.
Personally, I'm absolutely addicted to watching football and drinking beer, even though I workout a lot.

I also do not go to movies much and most of my movie experience is based on watching on my laptop. One of the reasons why I do not watch TV much is commercials. The TV channels air too much commercials, even the pay channels. For a 90 minutes movie, there will be 3-4 commercial breaks, which is very frustrating.
Haha. This is actually the reason I don't watch some TV programs like one's views on Zee world, Telemundo etc. They are filled with 70% commercials which makes the movies to be boring.

Till today, I still crave owning Xbox One console and I'm definitely going to be getting it sooner than later. Getting a vast gaming experience with it have eluded me for a while now.
Stop craving already and sort out your budget and go get one for yourself. It's pretty expensive at the moment but I'm sure you might see who wants to sell his own off eBay and you can get some discounts.

Seriously, you have just hit the nail on the head with this assertion about developing eye problems as a result of playing video games too often.
I'm a victim of such side effects of having to get my eyes always fixated on the television screen.
Most people do get to learn from experience. Just like you were victim of eye problems as a result of too much gaming, I'm very sure someone must have told you about such effects happening if you don't cut down on your gaming habits?

True my friend. Personally, I can literally stay anywhere and play my games. I can sit down, stand up, lay down and still play very comfortably. It's actually the lying down that gets me fall asleep lol.
Once your whole body is relaxed and laying down, it's a direct invitation for sleep to come and take over. If you have played for a while and probably tired, there is no way of stopping sleep from taking over.

I have played a couple of football games, however, I have never tried Top Eleven Football Manager. I have also read good as well as bad reviews about the game. However, I never go by the user reviews about the game. Reviews are purely based on own experience. Therefore, I am willing to try this game.
I can guarantee you that you will love the game completely but be advised, it's a very addictive game. So, be prepared for anything once you get the game.

I wish I still had my PS2 :(. It's a shame it's gone to the Playstation Afterlife.
I think that PS 2 is among the best Playstation consoles ever made by the company.

Too much gaming have so many side effects and not just a negative impact on one's behavior. It also have a physical effect on the eyes and one's general health. I have seen so many gamers complain about eye problems and feeling dizzy.

I also do not watch TV much. I watch TV only during live tournaments like FIFA world cup or ICC World Cup. Sometimes I also watch movies, especially when it is being premiered.
We literally can't do without Television here. It's a big part of our day's encounter here. We love movies a lot and most of us here don't go to cinema, so we do enjoy movies at home.

I do use my tablet to watch videos as well, I prefer it to my laptop especially when I am in bed and I have to place it somewhere. I don't have to get up and actually place it back at my workstation.
As a tablet owner as well, I can support your assertion on tablet being a very good gadget for accessing YouTube videos. It's far more better than small Android and iOS devices.

Knowing when to draw the line is key and yes, gaming can make you better at handling challenges like puzzles etc.
True my friend but the problem is that when you are already addicted, it becomes almost impossible to know when to draw the line as you will keep making excuses for why you still kept playing even when you are supposed to stop.

It's a very good thing that you know what happens when you insist on playing deep in the night. So, to avoid getting to sleep off and leaving all your gaming hardwares on and vulnerable to damage, it's best to remove yourself from such scenario and not play at night.
I'm trying my very best to stop but it's a habit that I have carried for a long time now, so believe me when I tell you that it's not as easy as it sounds but I'm not going to give up till I get to adjust well with my playing games schedule.

Here we are talking about drinking in moderation. We are not talking about drinking too much. When you take something in excess, it will always have an adverse effect.
Too much of everything is bad. This is something that everyone is very familiar with. When go across the line with a certain thing that you do, you will definitely suffer from the consequences of your actions.

I have seen kids imitating a fight after playing fighting games. Kids cannot differentiate between facts and fictions, illusion and reality, therefore, video games can easily harm them if these games are violent. Some adults might also get affected, however, these are basically the people who have something wrong in their brain.
This is absolutely true. Kids are the most vulnerable ones to gaming effects because they are too innocent to understand the difference between fiction and real life. They assume such gaming characters are even real somewhere in the world and they believe in them. This impacts on their psychological behavior in a very big way.

From my experience, Fortnite is one of the most addictive games ever made. I have read a lot articles on people's experience with getting addicted to the game and how it affected their behavior in a very bad way.

Top Eleven Football Manager is the last game which I'm currently playing at the moment. I so much love this game but it has already frustrated me so much that I had to quit playing it over and over again but I still see myself coming back to it.
It's more like I'm too connected to the game so much that I can't let it go completely.
This game Top Eleven Football Manager seems to be one of the most popular games played by Facebook users. There are some mixed feelings about the game both good and bad reviews but it's definitely a good game.

I know this DU screen recorder very well and it's actually exactly what you have described it to be is the way it is. Currently, it's what I'm making use of to carry out most of my screen recording task and also it have the feature of screen shot as well.
I enjoy using its screen shot feature as well. In fact, it's even more efficient than my default phone screen shot which fails sometimes when I try to use it and capture some screen images.

I mostly play games in the afternoon, after having lunch. However, I have played games at night, sometimes until 3 or 4 in the morning. I have never slept in the middle of the game. Generally speaking, I play games until the game hooks me. Once I start getting bored, I stop playing.
My problem is that when I get that hooked up playing, even when I'm very aware that I'm getting tired, I still can't easily stop playing especially when I have missed playing the game for a while.
The best way for me to prevent this from happening is not to play at night.

Normally, I would just keep hissing for so long and if it still keeps making me feel horrible, then I would have no other option than to stop playing for the time being.
I have personally seen some people/gamers get so violent when they keep getting frustrated with their game and it's never a good sight to behold.
I saw a video one time on Facebook or YouTube where a guy smashed his television over losing a FIFA game to his friend. It was so horrible to watch.
Visiting your old games?

I can't ever forget my first favorite old game - The Punisher. I played this first using my Sega console. Although the game is also available in PS, I would still like to try it out once again on a Saga console.
