Answer 1

well, sometimes, it depends.... yes because some games have a pop up and that sometines can give u a virus in ut ccomputer and youll have to pay to get it removed, and no if u take care of the computer well

Answer 2

No, not in general. The harm depends on the game. Even then, it depends on the person and circumstance. For instance, violent games are very good for soldiers to play as recreation since they help keep the combat skills in shape. On the other hand, a teenager who is still learning values and finding themselves would do better to avoid such games or to play them in moderation. If all you do is play violent computer games, then it is so easy to let them influence your behavior when away from the computer.

In general, computer games can help improve coordination and logic skills, and they give us new ways to communicate with others. Like any tool, they can be misused. Some can become addicted to them, and professional computer gaming does have its health risks. But when used in moderation, computer games are fun, help relieve stress, and help you build skills.

Of course, there are a few computer games which serve no valid purpose and are more harmful than good. There is no need to have games which include antisocial activities and violence like sexual assaults. Yes, killing is violent, but most killing games are about war, alien invasions, lawful police actions, or self-defense, so the violence can arguably be justified in those contexts. But games where you specifically target unarmed women and children with violence can never be justified.
