CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
Playing online games is trending nowadays, especially this era. The Information
age where anytime there is a new innovation of technology. The kids, teens and even
adults are playing online games on their smartphone.
Online gaming means you can play in real time with people across the world
through a computer games console, tablet or smart phone connected to the internet.
Games can offer children a world at adventure to immerse but it is important to
understand how children.
Some adults or children are playing online games because they are bored, or to
forget their problems, so that they entertain themselves or they want to be “in” on what’s
trending online games now.
Personal gadgets or technologies, nowadays they are the common now and always
prepared to use for an online gaming. The Researchers has to conduct this study seeking
for what is the most prepare by online gamers, it is smart phone or personal computers.
In the mid 1993-1995. Through the early to mid-90s, Sega, Nintendo, and Atari
tried to push online gaming forward. What they found was the internet was expensive and
not quite fast enough. This process began as early as 1993.The first-person shooter game,
Marathon, was released for the Macintosh at the end of 1994.

ICT Students
After that in 1996-1998 they knew the 2 important of online games. Kingdom of
the Winds and Quake. They expanded the RPG category and the first-person shooter
category. Quake was the first multiplayer first person shooter game. At this period,
Windows ’95 is released with great success.
As the 2000s began with the dot-com bubble bursting, you might have thought
tech was risky. What actually occurs is online gaming begins to do what gamers have
been waiting almost 2 decades for. The network effect. The start of the 2000s will see the
release of gaming consoles with internet capabilities built in. This trend will continue to
today, and only become a bigger part of the gaming experience.
In the mid 2000-2001 at the turn of the Millennium the Sega Dreamcast was
released. This is the first game console with true internet capabilities. Unfortunately, it
did not take off. The theory is that they were just a bit ahead of their time. 2000 also saw
the release of the Sony PlayStation 2. This had internet capabilities, but with the already
popular Sony PlayStation, it had no trouble with success. In 2001, the Nintendo
GameCube was released with online gaming capabilities. In the same year, the RPG
category evolves with the release of Run escape.
In these era the people are addicted to online gaming People are smoking less, but
phone usage has gone up. There is an argument that phones are the new cigarettes. Our
phones are what we reach to when sitting at a bus stop. When we have anxiety. When we
need to fill space. They’re a drug. A drug that will launch online gaming into an entirely
new world. Games are built mobile first, and as we have seen with Pokémon Go and
Mobile Legend there is a lot of money to be made in the mobile game market.
ICT Students
In the year 2007, this marks the year that smartphones begin to become
popularized. With mobile gaming. The gaming is now popular in the mainstream. Zynga
is founded in 2007 and goes on to create Facebook and mobile games. As the remainder
of the 2000s are ravaged by the global financial crisis, the future of gaming is getting
ready to take another turn. This time it will not take 2 decades, but less than one. Mobile
gaming becomes the next evolution of online gaming

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
There is a lack of consensus as to whether video game addiction exists and/or
whether the term "addiction" is the most appropriate to use. Some researchers use
terminology such as "excessive" or problematic" to denote the harmful use of video
games. (Griffiths, 2010)
According to King, Delfabbro, & Giffiths (2012), he reviewed the quality of the
studies the problems of gaming addiction from 1994 to 2012. The studies they selected
were based on samples of at least 300 participants and used some king of screening
instrument to assess problematic gaming. They reported the rates of problematic gaming
ranged from 1.7% to over 10% among general samples. Prevalence rates among gamers
were, in some cases, much higher (some as high as 17% to 34%). These studies indicated
that, in general, males are significantly more likely than females to report problems
relating to their gaming. The differences in methods of assessing gaming problems may
partly account for differences in prevalence rate.
According to Mehroof (2010), personality traits like anxiety, sensation seeking,
neuroticism, and aggression has related to the development of gaming addiction. Ko
(2009) stated that regions of the brain associated with cravings in substance abuse also
appear to be activated in gaming addicts when they view images of video games. There is
a difference between "excessive gaming" and "addictive gaming". Two gamers may play
for an identical number of hours each day, but their psychological motivation and the
ICT Students
meaning that gaming has within their lives can be very different. Gaming addiction
should be defined by how much the game negatively impacts others areas of life, not by
how much time is spent playing (Griffiths, 2010). In a volunteer sample, 41% of online
gamers acknowledged that they use gaming as an escape. In the same sample, 7% were
viewed as "dependent". These gamers possessed several behavioral attributes that are
related to more well established forms of addiction (e.g., mood modification, tolerance, &
relapse) (Hussain, 2009).
Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a recommended treatment method for
gaming addiction. CBT for computer gaming addiction involves setting healthy goals,
monitoring gaming patterns, changing behavioral habits, and challenging thoughts that
maintain or intensify video game addiction (King, 2010).
A number of studies have examined the role of personality factors, comorbidity
factors, and biological factors, and their association with online gaming addiction. In
relation to personality traits, gaming addiction has been shown to be associated with
neuroticism, aggression and hostility, avoidant and schizoid interpersonal tendencies,
loneliness and introversion, social inhibition, boredom inclination, sensation seeking,
diminished agreeableness, diminished self‐control and narcissistic personality traits, low
self‐esteem, state and trait anxiety, and low emotional intelligence (Griffiths, 2012).
Considering the relatively high frequency of co‐occurring personality, comorbidity, and
biological factors, it is hard to assess the etiological significance of these associations
with online gaming addiction as they may not be unique to the disorder and further
ICT Students
research is needed. Research has also shown online gaming addiction to be associated
with a variety of comorbid disorders. These include attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder, symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, depression, social
phobia, school phobia, and various psychosomatic symptoms (Griffiths, 2012).
Through use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), biological
research has found that gaming addicts show similar neural processes and increased
activity in brain areas associated with substance related addictions and other behavioral
addictions, such as pathological gambling (significant activation in the left occipital lobe,
parahippocampal gyrus, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, nucleus accumbens, right
orbitofrontal cortex, bilateral anterior cingulate, medial frontal cortex, and the caudate
nucleus (Kuss & Griffiths, 2012). It has also been reported that gaming addicts (like
substance addicts) have a higher prevalence of two specific polymorphisms of the
dopaminergic system (i.e., Taq1A1 allele of the dopamine D2 receptor and the Val158Met
in the catecholamine‐O‐methyltransferase), which suggests that, among some players,
there might be some genetic predisposition to develop video game addiction (Kuss &
Griffiths, 2012).
Clinical interventions and treatment for problematic and/or addictive video
gameplay vary considerably in the literature, with most of the very few published studies
employing some type of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), pharmacotherapy, and/or
self‐devised psychological interventions (King, 2011). The evidence base on the
treatment of problematic and/or addictive online gaming is limited. Furthermore, the lack
ICT Students
of consistent approaches to treating problematic gaming and gaming addiction makes it
difficult to produce definitive conclusions as to the efficacy of treatment, although the
effectiveness of CBT (as with the treatment efficacy of other addictions) appears to be
supported by preliminary evidence (King, 2011).
Problematic cognitions are thought to maintain problematic gaming behaviors.
Research on gamers has identified several attitudes and beliefs associated with excessive
playing behavior. These include the belief that no amount of time spent playing is “long
enough” and that time spent playing produces a need to continue playing a video game
until every level, reward, or feature is completed. Emotional responses associated with
in‐game rewards and completion of the video game encourage players to then seek out
and begin playing new games, thus initiating a never ending cycle of playing behavior
(King, Delfabbro, & Griffiths, 2010). Other common cognitive beliefs among problem
gamers include thoughts about gaining power and status through the game, thoughts of
mentally escaping from the real world, and thinking of the computer as a companion or
“electronic friend.”
In a review of internet and gaming addiction treatment, King (2011) highlighted
that most studies fail to employ an objective measurement of game usage to confirm
participants' self‐reported usage at baseline or following intervention. Another issue is
that many studies do not include a control group for between‐group comparison.
Treatment dose and duration also vary considerably across studies, for both
pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions. As a result, the lack of consistent

ICT Students
approaches to treating problematic gaming makes it difficult to draw definitive
conclusions as to the efficacy of treatment.
Games are played for fun and fun is the biggest advantage I feel. Few more
advantages of playing online games are as follows: It kills your boredom and keeps you
entertained.It relieves stress.Brain exercise. Many games requires more of thinking and
planning so it is good for your brain.Play anytime anywhere 24 by 7.Now a days
everyone has smartphone, you can easily download your favorite gaming apps on mobile
and start playing.If you play on trust worthy website online games are more secured
compared to offline games.You can play cash games and win real money (Jha, 2018).
Mobile phones are progressively being engineered for hosting games that feature
incredible graphics and complex gameplay, which is why the mobile gaming market has
grown into a multibillion-dollar-a-year industry fast. From low costs, to a level of high
accessibility, join us as we share the top six advantages of mobile gaming and explore
why mobile games have increased in popularity.
1. Low Cost. The majority of mobile games on the app store are free, quick to
download, and are great entertainment. The games that players do have to buy range from
a few dollars to no more than $20, making them a fraction of the price of a console game.
Not to mention, to even play a console game, one must first fork out hundreds of dollars
on a console. As an example, a Xbox One S currently costs around $239 in the US. The
low cost of mobile games, combined with the fact the gamer already owns a smartphone,
means gamers are more likely to play, and purchase more games, and make in-app
purchases.
ICT Students
We understand that the app store gaming library can be quite overwhelming, so check out
the Independent’s 15 Best free iOS games and discover the best, free, games on the
market.
2. Convenience. Mobile gaming gives players greater accessibility, you can
literally play the games anytime and anywhere. Once a game is downloaded onto your
smartphone, the majority of them no longer requires an internet connection as they run
through the phones internal drive. While gaming juggernauts such as Nintendo 3DS or PS
Vita have portable devices, it’s still an extra device to remember and carry. Having games
on your smartphone, in your pocket, is a more convenient and accessible option.
3. Creativity. Mobile games are relatively inexpensive, and that’s because they’re
cheap to produce, Gamespace explains. Game developers are able to be more
experimental with their concepts, create unique games and gaming experience which has
led to an explosion of creativity and innovation. With every gaming company in
competition for the number one game, graphics, sound, design, storylines, and the overall
experience is constantly improving. For this reasons Play4Fun games like Rivers Casino
can bring the excitement of an authentic casino experience to your fingertips.
4. Community. At the core of mobile phones is their purpose to connect people to
one another. This characteristic has trickled through mobile games where online
leaderboards, team work, and battles take the term ‘multiplayer’ to a new level, not to
mention the chat-functions that let gamers converse while they play. Whether it’s
Minecraft or Modern Combat 5, player engagement prevails. Whilst having fun, players
can make friends from all around the world in what is a global gaming community.
ICT Students
5. Health. Playing mobile games has been shown to provide certain health
benefits including, reducing depression, stress and even raising dopamine levels (which is
what makes you feel good when you’re playing and winning). Playing puzzle games can
help train the brain and enhance wellbeing. Mobile gaming can also help you be more
healthy and boost your fitness through gamification of your fitness routine. Trending ios
fitness game Wokamon is an example of how gamification can make fitness fun and last
longer, meaning you’ll get fitter faster.
6. AR Integration. Mobile games are increasingly bridging the gap between the
digital and physical world, enabling players to fully explore the virtual worlds around
them in a more active form of gameplay. Game developers such as Niantic are achieving
higher forms of realism through augmented reality with games such as Harry Potter:
Wizards Unite. The new AR game is due to launch mid 2018, and is expected to be
Niantic’s next big hit after Pokemon GO. Keep your eyes peeled! (Parillo, 2018)
Contrary to the traditional belief that gaming is merely an addictive source of
entertainment and diversion, recent research has proved that gaming has numerous
benefits and key among them, is the development of cognitive skills in both children and
adults. Just as physical exercise helps in improving and strengthening your muscles,
cognitive games help to indulge one's brain in constant stimulation, thus improving the
brain's performance. The following are some of the cognitive benefits of playing video
games.
ICT Students
1. Improves coordination. When an adult or child is playing a video game, he or
she is not only staring at the computer inactively. The activities and actions on the screen
provide a lot of mental stimulation. For one to play, he or she will need to coordinate
their visual, audial and physical movement.
2. Improves problem-solving skills. Video games involve certain rules. This
means that the player has to think carefully before making any move to ensure that they
stay within the required rules of that particular game. The player needs to make split-
second decisions that will determine whether or not he or she will advance to the next
level.
3. Enhances memory. Playing your favorite video game may require both visual
and audial memory. The player is required to read or listen to the instructions which
might only be provided at the beginning of the game, thus the need to remember them
throughout the entire game. Mastery of the keys on your keyboard helps you easily move
your characters in the game. This helps improve your memory, whether short- term or
long-term.
4. Improves attention and concentration. Video games especially action games,
have proven to be able to capture the player's attention for the entire period of the game.
This is brought about by the player's need to achieve certain objectives within the game,
and be able to progress to the next level.
5. It is a great source of learning. Gaming is not only beneficial to adults and
teenagers, but to children as well. Many modern education institutions incorporate video
games as a teaching methodology. This helps these children improve their academic skills
ICT Students
by providing video games that are specifically aimed at enhancing their cognitive and
creative skills.
6. Improves the brain's speed. While gaming, the brain receives multiple
stimulations, both Visual and audial. According to research, individuals who play video
games frequently can process these stimulators faster than others. These stimulators
ensure that the brain is continuously working to interpret them.
7. Enhances multitasking skills. An action game, for example, may require you to
be very observant. It requires you to be able to move your joystick or keys while looking
at the various features on your screen such as energy levels, oncoming adversaries,
ammunitions left, available time among other factors, all which are vital to winning. This
ensures that the player can observe and react accordingly to all requirements of that
particular game.
8. Improves social skills. Online gaming enables many players to engage in a
particular game simultaneously. As such, there is constant communication between the
players which in turn results in the development of meaningful as well as casual
relationships among them.
This helps players meet new friends while also strengthening bonds with their old
friends. Though computer games might be beneficial, there is need to play them in
moderation. It is also important to pick the right game as not all of them provide the same
cognitive benefits. Age should also be a factor. Small children should not be exposed to
violent games. (Eugenio, 2017)
