Hoping to tap into the collective gaming knowledge of spectrum, as i figured we would have some long time gamers in here.
I was assigned a task today titled "The impacts of video games on society".
Below is taken from the year's work program and outlines what i need to write.
"Computer games are being produced all around the world every second of the day. They can be educational and instructional or simply a form of enjoyment. Over the past decade, computer games have developed in the realms of game play, graphics, speed and interactivity. Computer game ratings and restrictions is a contentious issue in Australia today and laws are constantly changing to catch up with technology. To fully appreciate computer games we need to understand what the impact has been and where the future of gaming is headed.
You are required to investigate and report on the impact of computer games on our society over the last 10 years. Discuss the technology used, both past and present and consider future directions."
TL:DR
I have to write about the core components of the last decade of video games, current video games and what i think they will be in future of video games. While also mentioning its effects on the wider community and some things about Australian censorship laws.
Further below that was a more in detail outline of what needs to be done, which i made my plan for each paragraph.

*Its a word doc BTW, sorry of you don't have word
Legend: what's written in red are rough ideas for each paragraph while whats written in black is the question idea that needs to be explained.
If you do want to help, Please do. If you don't, ignore this.
Please tell me if I'm wrong in some sections or if you have any additions or suggestions to make. Any bit of help would be greatly appreciated.
And please if you do add something could you add the source as well. Also any sources that relate to the rough ideas within the document above would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
