Actually, that's what it is designed for by the developers.

That's what they make it for.

But that's not what it should be used for.

So when all of your core needs, your physical health, your mental health, your social life, your academic life, your professional life, when these five things are satisfied in some way in the real world, that's when you're a healthy gamer.

is not the PS2, is it?

I mean, if you're a connoisseur of vintage gaming back when gaming was good, it's a PS2.

So I love that you said PS2.

Yeah, so it's a great question.

So I'd say it all kind of fits.

When I say that 98% of people under the age of 30, that includes things like mobile games.

So things like whatever, Bubble Pop or Candy Crush or whatever kind of stuff.

And we also know that some people, for example, like senior citizens can sometimes be very vulnerable to doing those kinds of games for hours and hours and hours.

It's really strange.

So we know that there's basically any kind of game.

So whether it's a console game, whether it's a computer game, whether it's a cell phone game, iPad game, you know, people can get addicted to all of these things.

And what we also know is that there are different personality types that have a tendency to get addicted to different kinds of games.

So people like women, for example, are more likely to become addicted to massively multiplayer online RPGs.

Boys are more likely to become addicted to first person shooters.

And it seems like this is exactly how the market has evolved is there's a lot of different brains out there.

So game designers will create particular games to appeal to particular brains.
