Gaming the System: Gaming Addiction & Screen Time

009 - Is Gaming Worse than Watching TV?


Listen Later

If I had a dollar for every time someone said to me "playing video games is no worse than watching Netflix" I'd probably have about $200 give or take...

But, is there any truth to it? Well, kind of...

The problem is television isn't designed to be hyper-stimulating, unlike video games. You don't get pop-ups rewarding you for playing for a long time, you're not being challenged, and most of the time it's not social.

I had fun making this one!


As always thanks for listening. If you enjoyed it I'd love it if you could leave us a review as it really helps us out!

Until next time.
