Research and Methodology Why Games ? This is a very confusing question to a Chinese student like me. I was born in a family, many of whom work as teachers, which is why I am a very quiet person. I was told that games are bad for my life, they stop me from doing homework, etc. But why games this time? I interviewed a lot of parents in China, this image shows a very popular game around the world, especially for parents in this age, CS is the irst time they know about 3D irst view shooting games. Most of them have a very deep misunderstanding about games, especially the parents born before 1970,

because social media reports so many negative news about how bad the kids become after they are addicted to games. I admit that addiction is a bad thing for kids, but gaming should be a kind of great experience for all generations: kids can learn things through games. After I read some books and watched some TED talks, I realized games should not be misunderstood in this way. Games are a great invention in the entire human race; gaming can bring so many different experiences into your life that you have never had before.
