| description | Video games, in general, are electronic games that can be interacted with using input devices such as computers and gaming consoles. There are some people who perceive video games as having no educational value, as it is often presented negatively by the media. Thus, the fact that video games can be educational is always overlooked due to the public's negative perception, especially the older generation.
