What are some of the negative effects of computer games that you have experience?

Time tends to dissapear, I can get into this dazed state where I want to get off, I know I'm wasting time, but I just sort of sit there playing/surfing the web and then randomly clicking around file folders. I've lost so much quality time over the years, I just think of what I could have done if I'd just done what I wanted and then GOTTEN OFF.

Aww

i spend lots of time on the comp when im bored :rolleyes: but my eyesight is still very close to perfect. pheww
 
I know, same here Nini. My eyes were huting pretty bad one month, went to the eye doctor, and I still have 20/20. He told me to just give my eyes some relaxation times between things.

Negative effects:
-Sitting too long.
-Where has my time gone?
-Annoys the parents.

To name a few.
 
Mainly time left for other things. Also gives me some migraine headaches if I play for too long at once...
 
my addiction to them has led me to spend too much money on them, and has led me to some affairs of questionable leglaity, i'm sure most of us have been there
 
Well... if you sit too much, you can become fat :o thats because i do quite some sport :P also, you can get hurting eye's, because they get dry from staring at the monitor.
Also a high energy bill isnt quite a plus.
 
Addiction. I used to play RO. I became so addicted with it that I spent about 7 hours daily playing the game.

I wasted so much money buying pirated pc games that aren't working.

Games also prevent me from doing my homework.
 
Hehe, actually(hopfully) the computer use hasn't affected my eye sight too much. My last eye exam, my vision actually had gotten slightly better than the previous exam!

But, as for negative effects, as others said, TIME! I was up last night playing Metal Wolf Chaos from about 2am to 4am... Actually, probably longer than that.
 
everyone seems to have that time issue as a negative effect, i woke up a saturday morning around 9am then started playing doom 3 by the time i was actually tired it was 4:30pm.....went down stairs ate some sandwhiches then played again lol

time traveling anyone?
