Advantages for societies:in modern times, video-games formed a new industry to make huge wealth for our society because of the popular through the world.This new industry provide  new jobs for painters and designers...

Disadvantages for individuals:many video-games have upgrades,so players always spent much time on them.For me, it means a waste of time,because if I played a upgrading game, I will think it all the time just like the questions of "How to upgrade?" " How to make my account more strong?" Players like this can't focus on their self-learning or work.What's more,playing the pay games needs lots of money.If players are strongly indulge in it，especially the teenagers is a waste of money,even lead to the happening of crime. Because of the charming of these video-games,there will be some motivations of players.If the themes of such  games are bloody or not so good,players may be in risky.

b)According the film, is there any evidence that digital games can encourage aggressive values and antisocial actions in the real world?Do you agree?
yes,I think there are some evidences that show in the film can encourage aggressive values and antisocial actions in thereal world. I really agree with this point.

c)Should governments have the right to ban certain games?why?or why not?
I think they can do it, because the  Scale  is quiet hard to limit. It's really hard to say what is good or bad in simply principles.Our world need more freedom space. I think players should choose what is good for themselves.What's more, I think goverment can Publish some posters and books to educate young people hoe to choose the good videogames.
