Computer Games Addiction.

"the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. "- Dictionary.com

The meaning of addiction is: the state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma, taken from dictionary.com. The meaning of computer games addiction is someone who is in a state of being enslaved to playing the computer, to such an extent that when he/she stops, it causes severe trauma.

Some people might say that they will not be addicted to computer games, but the ruth is everybody might get addicted. For example, a 20 year old guy still plays computer, and when you ask him if he is addicted, he will say no. Just like many people, they are afraid o face the truth that they are addicted to computer games. Being addicted to computer games will have many negative impacts on your body.
1- Bad for your eyes. Looking at computer screen for too long.
2- Bad for your health. People who are addicted to playing games will give up their food for computer games. And they usually snack on tidbits.
3-Bad for social life. Playing computer games discourages you from interacting with people.

Many people might say that playing computer games is just for relaxation, but i disagree. To relax you need not play computer games, you can do other things such as sports, reading books, or even talking to people. I find that role playing games, rpg,are the most addictive.

When people are addicted to a certain game, they will usually be angry if not able to play the game. This not only affects their relationship with their family or friends, it also causes them to only be aware of the games they play and it will affect their education.

As there are more people playing computer games nowadays, there are more people being addicted. Statistics from China's newspapers have shown that there are more and more people getting addicted to computer games so bad that they need to be sent to mental hospitals.

To end this off, I would like to say that computer games not only affect a person mentally, it also affects a person physically.

erm...i think your intro to the issue at hand is too long and your stand is too short (used a ruler and measured). better if your arguements or stands are longer. that is why it is called an arguementative essay...but good job. you got a lot of points which can be further elaborated though.
