– Yes, computer games can be addictive

“Recent studies suggest / prove / show that spending too much time playing computer

games can really become an addiction. Today we know that it can become an addiction

like alcohol or drugs or other illegal substances. Just imagine the damage! It’s a distracting activity, worse than watching TV! If you spend too many hours playing, then you will become more and more obsessed. Playing too much on your computer may become addictive if nobody is there to stop you and your mood can change but don’t you think that an addiction is something serious and, as such, can be harmful?”

“It can be dangerous for your psychological and emotional health and lead to health disorders. You can become moody and the consequences for your social life can be huge / dramatic!”

Youngsters / Young people can really enjoy themselves / have a great time thanks to computer games. They can take pleasure in playing and discovering new adventures and new graphics corresponding to new worlds!”
