I am 70+ years old and have been playing electronic/video games for decades. How am I still alive? This is alarmist BS. Remember, people have died from jogging.

[J.D.Mc.]

The Heart problems are not a result of gaming. They are result of SITTING ON YOUR BUTT FOR HOURS AND HOURS ON END. Lazy kids, lazy parents for not making their kids get exercise and limiting their console time. This story was overblown.

[yingyangcoffee]

There is even a darker side of gaming and perverts mingling around just because they know parents never play that.

[DudeMan]

Gaming isn’t the problem, lack of exercise while gaming is, it’s important to take regular breaks and get up and move around

[jvjd]

Lolz you can replace gaming with any activity and you will realize if you spend 12- 16 hours doing it straight without a break you will get sick. This also includes stuff like work and Gym that causes over exhaustion, stress, heart and mental illnesses.

Everything in moderation is the only healthy way of going about it.

[Santello]

Watching WION may cause depression....study shows...

[KayJay]

Pretty sure they already solved that problem
All the games these days suck hard.
You can barely play them for a couple hours without wanting to delete it anyway.

[danzingcat]

Blame it on previous generations who build a urban dangerous to go out society of single child's growing up unattended by busy parents surrounded by drug addicts gangs

[remijulio]

Like others have said, gaming is not the issue. It's lack of nutrition and exercise that causes problems the most.

All of a sudden in 2022 people start dying of climate change, energy bills, working out, playing video games, skipping breakfast. What a clown show

[vedantjadhav]

don't blame the game blame the parents and that addicted child

[TwiztedHarlequin]

Did I miss something? Did we went back in time to the 90's and early 2k's where almost every media outlet was demonizing gaming?

[takdangkasaysayan]

BUT PLEASE OLDER PEOPLE. DO NOT MISJUDGE US THAT WE ARE ALL ADDDICTED TO THAT. SOME OF US EARN MONEY BY E-GAMES.

[spyplus]

Bring Back Palki Sharma Wion…she is a Trademark of Wion!

[meow_rtx]

That clown at 0.20 playing LOL on a controller is what is giving me a heart attack 🤣

[IronFist]

Blaming gaming is like blaming a vehicle for accident. It depends on us to satay in control.

[AundreiFrieght]

DISCIPLINE IS ONE OF THE BEST SOLUTION, PARENTS SHOULD START NOW, If you can't discipline your kids, better off not having any.

[harshavardhan]

Too much of anything is good for nothing

[thelosthouse]

not just gaming, but as well porn and movies lead to the same health conditions.
change the pattern of modern lifestyle get rid of consumer culture and the idea that intense production leads to prosperity.
