What is my reaction to the video we watched, i don’t really know what to say. It was a bit long for me to really understand the whole video.What i could get out of it was that they really had big ideas which some worked and some didn’t and the company’s lost alot of money and some even went into bankruptcy. They were concentrating on beating the other companies and meeting the deadlines on when to put the new ideas in the stores to see how they would sell. I hear some people saying that video games are not good for children cause if they spent too much time on them they lose interest in other educational activities such as losing interest in going to school. Losing lack of sleep, their minds are something to really worry about.Then there are those parents that say that they help children with learning how to read , write and even speak in english. I think that it was ok if you limited the use of the video games to your children until they became violent. It may also be good for them to learn about the technology as it changes. My kids have X-Box, Gamecube, Wii and X-Box360.  Today children are so into Guitar Hero, Rock band,, I often see children and teenagers walking by pretending to play the guitar. I know that here it is a big thing cause families are starting to have musical instruments in their homes. I think that the video game has a big part in to do with that.I still like playing the classic video games such as pacman, tetris, and other arcade games when i get the chance to play them. To me I feel that’s it’s ok to have your child to play with the video games as long as you can control how much and what kinds of video games they are playing that is acording to your beliefs.
