Virtual Reality Consoles
Is there a connection between video game sales and social inability? ?
I just finished playing Fable and realized that once the credits were rolling I was transported back into my reality. I am in a situation where I have just moved and unfortunately have not had the chance to make a social circle. I started to think that perhaps video game sales would be higher in countries where people have a harder time meeting people due to the social traditions, media, standards and crime rates. America purchases almost four times as many video game consoles, than all of Europe. My thesis would be--in a wealthy country where there is a high rate of social inability, video games offer a drug like enhanced state of alter reality where the player finds his or her virtual world to be more appealing than the real environment they live in.
Oh I think most definitely theres a connection.. I love my boyfriend dearly and we've been together almost two years but he plays games for 13 hours a day sometimes and hes very socially awkward. I like to go out and meet people and I like to make people laugh and feel comfortable meeting new people. He on the other hand gets bored very easy, doesn't know what to say, and people pick up on that. A lot of his friends are the same way and I see that a lot. Sometimes its like an addiction because we will go and visit my family who live a few hours away and he will be irritable because hes "bored", and I think a lot of that has to do with there not being any video games readily available. He takes his PSP almost everywhere. I hate video games, I won't let my children play them when I have kids, or put a limit on them.
