Video Games have always been a part of the civilized world, since 1958 when the first video game was developed by Physicist William Higinbotham the world started to take part of what is today one of the biggest industry's!
Games influence lifestyle
How is this possible? When playing a game you feel more relaxed, dopamine and serotonin rushes through your brain and if its more competitive than that moves into being an obsession. They attract people by giving them achievements and other goods which in real life they have no meaning, but in the virtual world they are seen as something extraordinary.
These kind of games can improve the competitiveness in real life too, as it shows that doing something better than someone else can get you some "fame". This is triggered in school, when getting high grades or when your playing a sport outside with your friends, the need to win is always going to overtake the one to lose.
Too much of anything is never too good!
You may think that playing games is a waste of time, it is some sort of true. If you are spending 12 hours at home playing video games then that is not managing your time and could seriously damage your eyesight and overwork your brain giving you unnecessary headaches and blackouts ( happened to me ). That much time wasting on games that do not give much of a real benefit in the real world is simply throwing hours of your life away, just to have a little fun , which nobody said you cannot do.

3.Planning, playing a tactical or strategy game can influence your planning skills due to in the game having only a few resources to begin with you have to be skillful and know where to invest and creating some sort of plan of what to do with the resources. This can be used in developing architecture for big buildings that have limited resources and even in logistics.
