Why violence against virtual animals is an ethical issue alexeypisemskiy https://padlet.com/alexeypisemskiy/ghtfi88z9799yhns/wish/1999987514 Main idea:
To make the readers think about the issue of hurting virtual animals and whether this actually affects us in real life.

Facts:
- Virtual animals are not real animals
- There are games that control the issue of animal abuse.
- Some gamers don't think that this is an issue.

Dialogue:
- I think that this is a true issue. Since we think that virtual animals are not actual animals (which is totally true) we begin to do some inhumane things that we surely won't do in real life. I believe that this can in-fact affect our psychology and ways of thinking

Summary:
This article is basically talking about how animal abuse may be just as bad as in real life. Talking about real games and platforms where such things are not monitored. Featuring PETA and other opinions where they talk about how big of an issue this is. Finishing with a hope sentence that in-game animal abuse stops.

Main idea:
Video games can be very addictive especially for young kids. They can make a person kind of lose the idea of what real life is and start doing violent, dangerous, or illegal things.

Facts:
-scientists suggest that video games are designed to be addictive and compare some game mechanics to machine gambling, which they say could activate the brain’s so-called “reward system” in the same way as drugs as cocaine or heroin do.
-Videogames have proven to be violent for example, players can choose to drive over and kill pedestrians in GTA V, while this is not a choice that players of Driver: San Francisco has.

Dialog:
I believe it depends on the person because some people have the discipline to control themselves but most people are affected by video games to do what they think is "cool" because they did it in game.

Summary:
In conclusion, video games have scientifically been proven to affect the real-life day-to-day of people who play them too much. Video games can change the way a person sees the real world using them to do things they might not do if they didn't play video games such as violence.

Main idea:
Gaming is a fun way to pass time and have fun with friends online. It can, however, be addictive if used incorrectly but overall everyone loves video games and they are a great way to also learn new things.

Facts:
-The game industry wants games to be seen not just as entertainment, but also as an art form.

-Violence is perhaps the biggest talking point when talking about controversial games. Although violence has existed in games almost as long as the game industry itself, those desiring to censor games have focused on a number of infamous titles.

Dialog:
I believe in general videos games are fun and a great way to pass time. They are a great way to experience the world online and communicate with family or friends that are far away. All though they can be addictive if a person is disciplined enough they can be ok.

Summary:
In conclusion, video games are a great way to experience the world with others but they are like a double-edged sword. I say this because they can be addictive as well but video gaming can be a healthy activity all around.

When dopamine activity happens in the nucleus accumbent, the pleasure centre of your brain, you feel joy.
