Life without computer games?

Computer games have been with us for years. For a lot of young people they take a significant amount of their free time. But are they a positive or negative thing? Would we better off without them?

Computer games can be a fun way to relax after studying. They don't disturb other people and can be good for imporving had-eye coordination. On the other hand, they can be addictive and some people spend many hours at their computer. They stop going out, seeing people, doing sports and so on.

So, in the end, like many things maybe it's a question of balance. If we play computer games from time to time and still do lots of other things, they should be a fun and entretaining addiction to our free time interests.
