Video games are the bloody and aggressive sport of our time without the culpability of homicide. Video games are the stimulating mental challenge that actually results in a reward. Video games are how the first mammal to wear pants now gains his sense of self-satisfaction in the wake of soul crushing office jobs and water-cooler conversation.
Video games are the next step in how mankind will measure their development and potential.
Starting early is crucial;
But not always the definitive factor.
What matters is getting the most out of your gaming.
Spending even just a few hours staring at the screen and jamming buttons will result in significant and rapid development of your ability to win both in the virtual world and in the real.
While the detractors will claim that looking at screens will make your eyes go square, they are lying. In fact, playing games improves your hand eye coordination. Be able to use your fingers and hands without actually having to see what they are doing is an essential skill in a world dominated by touch technology.
More importantly, being able to defeat your enemies and enjoy their despondency is a great way to increase your self-esteem.
Video games have developed in leaps and bounds in the past decades from the initial explosion in popularity in the 1980s with now many many forms existing to serve any kind of competitor.
Moreover games are now crossing over into other media so as to demand their recognition and engagement.
It would be a foolish choice to deny the validity of a pastime that now earns $25 billion a year.
The world marches into post-modernity and the measure of your greatness will not always be on how physically powerful you are, but rather on how apt you are at manipulating a controller.
