Re: Impact of games on society

It impacts children pretty big.  Games that teach you to solve puzzles or think on a higher level are good for people who need to learn skills for success, but then there's the other side of the sword where you get hooked on games that teach you nothing.

They can be fun, but people should remember that there's an outside world. xP


I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

This looks as though it ought to go into "Miscellaneous." I'll move it for you. Thanks!

Ah - thanks for pointing that out! That being the case, this will be closed now.

(New Scratcher's can't post in Miscellaneous - but this topic clearly belongs there. Thus, this topic is closed.)

Re: Impact of games on society

Ah, I'd just like to point out that, although this topic is better fit in Miscellaneous, there is a similar topic here already in the "All About Scratch" forums that talks about violent Scratch Projects and other Scratch projects containing questionable content. Feel free to take a look at the thread if interested in the discussion.  smile
