Point of New

I have been brainstorming some ideas for what I could use for my Rogerian Argument assignment. My Informative essay was on video games and the benefits that they have on our society. I suppose now I will cover the more widely accepted side of the controversy. First I thought I could start with some articles about any negative effects video games may have on the body. At the beginning of every video game there are a series of warnings about the chance of suffering a seizure. I figure that must have a certain amount of validity as well as being somewhat easier to debunk in the process. Another thing I thought I might be able to cover is any negative psychological ramifications playing too many video games can have on a person. There could be a chance that these mentalities could lead to other destructive habits, such as over eating. I think the most relevant topic to today’s society would be determining if video games really do poses the ability to make otherwise normal and sedate children, more angry and violent. As a personal opinion I do not think that they can have any lasting effect and offer more of a release than a cap, but I suppose time and research will tell. These are just a few of my preliminary ideas and I’m looking forward to getting to some of the others.
