Yes and No. (This is for eyes.) It is bad depending on how dark it is. For example if you play Video Games at night and the only real main source of light is coming from the tv. (Clocks and Light coming from under the door, etc arent good enough to count) Then yes it is bad for your eyes. If you have a fan light or a desk light etc, on while playing it is no problem for your eyes. The best time to play is during the day when natural light huts your eyes. If your eyes hurt or water, take a half am hour break!

Can video games harm you?

If you play video games too much then yes it can harm you. it is proven that the longer you play video and watch TV, the better your chances are of getting poor grades. it also hurts your physical, social, and emotional health. You can't lose weight by playing video games (unless its the wii or kinect), most video games are one player games so you don't interact with people, and you can start wishing your life would become more like the game which can cause you to hate your life and get depressed. But be sure to remember, this only happens if you play video games A LOT. Playing them only an hour a day isn't bad.


Are video games bad for your health and brain?

Video games can actually be very good for your health and brain. They are shown to improve vision, memory, mental fitness, physical fitness, and can treat a variety of mental disorders including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. There are many "bad" things video games can do to your health, so a player must always be cautious. However, every complaint can be prevented by changing the way you play. Obesity, for example, can be prevented by changing the kind of game you play, and the frequency at which you play. As for mental health, video games have a good reputation across the board. There is little evidence to suggest that video games decrease brain activity. Many are educational, and almost all create new pathways in the brain that can actually prevent conditions like dementia and Alzheimers. Essentially, video games can be bad for your health and brain when used incorrectly. However, when used properly they can be an excellent asset.
