in [Development], I feel information regarding "rushing games" is underdeveloped due to a lack of other statistics besides differences between development team sizes. Also the link to "Assassin's Creed II dev team triples in size" which is citation number [39] is no longer functional and should be replaced with a similar article. In addition, I think another section that is underdeveloped is [Downloadable Content (DLC)]. I think it can be improved by adding information about how (DLC)s are made such as their development times, sizes of development teams, the pricing of (DLC)s, and more information about 'mods' such as how to acquire them.[[User:Glake98|Glake98]] ([[User talk:Glake98|talk]]) 04:12, 21 June 2018 (UTC)([[User:Glake98|Glake98]]) (4:11 AM 21, June 2018 (UTC)) |

This part "video games on desktop and laptop computers and smartphones." Should also mention Tablets as well 24.97.253.174 (talk) 14:17, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
- Not done: This is clearly a list of examples and does not need to be exhaustive. In addition, the preceding sentence says "small handheld devices", which implicitly includes tablets. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 15:45, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
Rebirth of Video Game Console
Today a lot of the older versions of video game consoles are being reborn. The Super Nintendo is being reborn as a smaller version but will be able to hold the older video games. They also had a new Nintendo Classic which was smaller than the original and used the older games.
PC Game vs Computer Game
Nobody now refers to non-IBM Compatible PC computer games as PC games, they are usually referred to as Amstrad Games, Amiga Games or grouped together as Computer Games - how come Computer Games doesn't have a section, but specifically PC games does? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.32.141.11 (talk) 12:46, 4 November 2017 (UTC)

Video games usually is addictive to children and distracts them from doing anything else.Furthermore,it lowers their IQ {wich shows how smart they are} and it may give them headaches.It would have the same effect if they had their head hit by a rock.Sometimes their eyeballs shrink if looking at the screen for too long and also hurt their eyes and damage their eyesight making it poor. 88.98.219.59 (talk) 19:31, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Page suggestions
This page covers a lot of useful information about video games. From the process of making to what video games are. It also gives a lot of good details, like information on different events and information about censorship. The only thing that can be improved, in my opinion, is the educational part of playing video games. There is much more to cover, and this page includes only a small part of it.

There was a study in 2013 where they got 20 children and divided them in to two groups of ten one group played AVG (action video games) and the other group played NAVG (non-action video games) they were tested before and after playing video games the children’s attentional reading and phonological skills . They found that the AVG group without affection there accuracy improved the children’s reading speed also their attention skills. This was done over nine sessions of 80 minutes per day adding up to 12 hours in total also the NAVG did not have the same benefit as the AVG put did have the same routine to also add that it was done on Nintendo Wii gaming console[1]
benefits of the Xbox 360 for children with cereal palsy(CP) to be more pacific is the Xbox 360’s motion capture device Kinect also there were 11 children who took part 5 being boys and 6 being girls also around the age of 8 years old. The study lasted 8 weeks in which the children where tester before and after playing Xbox 360’s Kinect on their balance, gait speed Jumping and running and fine manual finger dexterity also there motor and process skills. What they have gathered from there study is that the Xbox 360 Kinect has some benefits for the children in some of the areas they tested in but not all also adding that some motion capture games could be used as a tool for rehabilitation for children with CP.[2]
the effects of one switch games for children with severe motor disabilities also there were only 8 children in the study but only 7 could the children could play and interact the mini games from Gnomon. They worked closely with a team from their local health agencies who know Physiotherapists, speech therapists and psychologists. They found that some games for children with severe mother disabilities (smd) is that some video games can be very fast paced and some children can keep up with the time response and quick decision making the player must make for their character to succeed in there game also they may not be able to use the standard controls that some video game console uses like mouse, keyboard (used by PC) or controllers (Xbox and PlayStation) this is where one switch games help children with smd benefit as it not focus on time quick decision making. The found that 7 out of 8 of the children could reach the goals of the game while enjoying the game.

Vector displays
The first paragraph says: "The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device...". Many classic video games (e.g. Asteroids) were designed for vector displays. This claim is obviously incorrect. Is it obliquely trying to exclude other types of games, e.g. text games? If so, it needs to be reworded. Pburka (talk) 02:44, 2 April 2018 (UTC)

Please, change the reference number 46 with a broken link in "cheating" section to: The cheat sequence survived several console generations, and still works in more than 100 Konami games. [1]
- Not done: The link is not actually broken. The link presents a old intercept page that obviously used to have an advertisement which has been removed but after a short time the referenced article is displayed. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 12:29, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Critiques on article
in [Development], I feel information regarding "rushing games" is underdeveloped due to a lack of other statistics besides differences between development team sizes. Also the link to "Assassin's Creed II dev team triples in size" which is citation number [39] is no longer functional and should be replaced with a similar article. In addition, I think another section that is underdeveloped is [Downloadable Content (DLC)]. I think it can be improved by adding information about how (DLC)s are made such as their development times, sizes of development teams, the pricing of (DLC)s, and more information about 'mods' such as how to acquire them.Glake98 (talk) 04:12, 21 June 2018 (UTC)(Glake98) (4:11 AM 21, June 2018 (UTC))
