The current scenario of our world says that there are increased health problems due to the addiction for PlayStations. Children consider it as a passive mode of television and they find it very hard to concentrate on their studies.

I’ve read lots of studies over the years going back and forth on this issue. My daughters grew up playing Sega together and I didn’t see any changes negatively in their school work or outdoor activities. But I can see how some kids do play their gaming system excessively.
My son couldn’t decide on a Playstation 4 or Xbox One last year so instead he just saved his money. He has a Playstation 3 and 2 so he is not deprived. I think he might wait until spring to see if the prices come down a little.
My son is an adult now and he works and bought himself this Playstation. Kids are not the only people that love playing video games, tons of adults love the fun that they get from playing this system. On his day off, he will have his friends over and they will play some games.
