Description
Summary:This article aims to raise some crucial points for discussing the issue of videogames from psychology as a field and, in general, the social sciences. This approach is stated from three axes to allow a look at the phenomenon in its multiple dimensions: First is an approach which involves the world of video games as fun activities. Second, we review the evolution of video games to identify the most significant dimensions that led to the current games. Finally, we reflect upon what society can say about video games and what these can say about society.
