my viewpoint: Taking a person who already has a gaming issue (in that it’s intruding into other parts of life) and then giving that person a high-end gaming device is really being an enabler.
I wrote a note last year about friends’ son who got into a fairly prestigious school and then spent all of his nights gaming (playing with japanese players on different time zones). he was put on probation and then dismissed after 2nd semester. My theory is that he was in over his head and turned to gaming to quell his anxiety…and give him something he could later blame the dismissal on).
