Games

Title: Games
Author: Stephen Johnson
The Author brings up a great point about if video games had been around before books then everyone would be against books. But now a lot of people are very anti-video games, which amazes me because pretty much everyone plays them. Angry Birds, Farmville, anything like that is a video whether people know it or not. You can compare books and video games even though they are very different they both offer some of the same qualities. They both encourage imagination, provide entertainment, and of course kills time. Video games in my opinion can be very beneficial. Stress relief, education, and also brings people together. Books are more a solo event, they can be very stress relieving and of course educational. It is very easy to compare the two activities even though they are still so polar opposite to some people. I don't see why I love to read and i love to game. I don't get why for some people, it has to be one or the other.
