Some may think that playing computer games is always something negative, especially for children .But are those who believe this always right? Further on I will try to find and explain some reasons why computer games are good for us.

First of all, living in this world,  when the time passes very fast, when the entire world is based on a very fast evolution, computer games are one of the most relaxing and especially cheapest ways of relaxing ourselves. Think about people who work all day long, and can not afford all the time to pay for the gym or go to trips. One of their relaxing ways is playing computer games, half an hour per day, or even more. This can not harm anybody .So, a reason why computer games are good for us is because they are relaxing.

Second of all, there are numerous educational computer games, such as “Conquiztador”, or games about mathematics, literature, word order, chess etc. So another reason why computer games might actually be good for us is because they can teach us things, in an easy and pleasant way. This reason applies for people of all ages, such as children, adults and old people.

Third of all, by playing computer games we can easily interact with other people from all around the world. Think about the fact that not all of us have the possibility to travel around the world, and by playing computer games is easier for us to meet new people, to find out more about other countries, their culture and their way of living. This is a good reason why computer games are good for us because as we all know, there are two types of people around us, introverted and extroverted people. For those who have problems in interacting with others (introverted) and showing their feelings or opinion about all sorts of things, computer games can be very helpful.

Last, but not least, one reason why computer games are good for us is because most of the games that we play are so much fun. By playing a computer game we can be whoever or whatever we want, whenever we want it. It’s great to be able to have some sort of idea about how life would be in another reality. For example, playing real time strategy, real time tactics, and role playing games etc. can make us fell a lot better after a bad day at work or even in our spare time.

There are many other reasons why computer games are good for us, but there are also a lot of reasons why computer games are not good for us, so the important thing is to always keep in mind that there are only computer games and try not to loose our connection with the reality in order to have a happy and healthy life.
