What, if any, are the health risks/side effects posed to regular gamers?
Neurologically there has been no evidence of a biological addiction to games, and therefore the industry believes that games should not be judged separately from any other leisure activity that brings people enjoyment. For example, a casual book reader will read books as part of his or her daily activities while balancing a number of other pursuits. At the same time, an avid book reader, or television viewer, music lover, film buff or keen video gamer, may choose to engage with that activity more than any other. As with these other hobbies, the industry emphasises that playing with interactive software is one of a selection of daily activities which gives people pleasure. Have fun, enjoy your purchase but remember Play safe.
