I love gaming. It is so much more than people often give it credit for. Following are a list of points regarding the "art of gaming"
- It stimulates fine motor skills, hand eye coordination with button pressing. (With motion control, fitness and dancing games also provide physical activity.)
-It stimulates the mind, aiding problem solving skills. Gaming can also provides a sense of achievement.
-Gaming stimulates emotions. Games contain stories, characters, backdrops. They can provide fantasy as well as escapism. Difference from accepted mediums such as reading or film? Gaming is interactive.
-Gaming can be social. LAN parties, couch co-op, online multiplayer are highly celebrated gaming experiences where gamers get together. Games can be a point of conversation and discussion can even extend to areas such as the schoolyard or at family/friend gatherings.
-Gaming is an "art" literally. They can provide graphics, animations and music.
