Pros for Individuals and societies:
Videogames can help player to train the coordination of mind, hand amd foot because they need to judge the action you do and type the order immediately. Also, playing videogames such as The Sims can make player more creative as they can create their own place and even their faces in the game. Players will be brave to do what they cannot do in reality like being a man.
Cons for Individuals and societies:
Wrong concepts will send or enter to players' mind especially for immatural teenagers. The most obvious messages are violence and sexual concept. One of my classmates like playing The Sims and she always makes sex with people in the games. The example of Exidy's 1976 title Death Race shows videogames may not increase the violent tendencies among youth, but surely bullying.
Videogames do encourage the concept of violence to players because players need to choose weapons to hit or kill people in some shooting games. There is a real case that a young boy brought a gun to school and shot at eight schoolmates' faces and finally found out that the boy played first-person shooter game for 100 hours.

B) Accordimg the film, is there any evidence that digital games can encourage aggressive values andanti-social actions in the actions in the real world? Do you agree?
Some video especially first person shooter game, players need to choose weapons to hit or kill people so that players are encouraged as a killing machine. Also, players will eager to finish all the tasks in the game. According to research, by testing brain activity, first person shooter game can produce aggressive impulsion in players' brain.
Digital games also raise the problem of discrimination. The setting of characters is unfair as the good one must be Western countries, mostly America, and the bad one must be Middle East countries such as Iraq. This wrong concept will send to players, especially teenagers, and they are not mature enough to filter those discriminative messages.
C) Should governments have the right to ban certain games? Why or why not?
I think government should have the right to ban certain games because it can stop players learning violent or receiving wrong concept.
