Computer games have become popular as they give the player the things they would be unable to do in real life like some games offer character super powers such as flight or super strength, the ability to be a spy like James bond, it also offers people to become animals with special abilities such as Sonic The Hedgehog and his friends.
I don’t believe playing computer games make people violent unless they were already violent before they started playing as this would encourage them that what they are doing is ok in the real world which can cause some people (especially the Americans) to go out and do what they did in the game and by doing this they blame the game saying that it was the "games" fault which is not true as they have access to the equipment that they should not be using as they have been told by there parents and police that they should not use guns. Some controversial games include Grand Theft auto, Manhunt 1 and 2 and the new to be released made madworld which has been banned in Germany and Australia mostly because it is on the Wii which is supposed to be a family friendly console.
I believe it does make people more isolated as they spend less time outside socialising with friends which makes there people skills not so good making it impossible to talk to people as they would not understand how it works, also it makes some people like the virtual life more than the real life shown in games like Second Life and World of Warcraft but they sometimes meet up to talk with people they have met over the internet creating groups of games enthusiasts.
Network computer games make people both social online and off as they are able to talk to people over the internet getting people to listen to commands or just talk on certain games via a headset or microphone and as they have put that ability to use online there is on reason it should be to hard offline as it is the same type of conversation but face to face instead of like phone calls. (kinda the same as you don’t see there face but you hear there voice).
