Infectious Technology: Madden Mobile

0
0

Over the past 3 days, my friends have been taken over by technology because of an addicting video game that just came out. The game is called Madden Mobile, which from my understanding gives players the chance to create their own teams to battle each other through online. Over the past three days, my friends have been taken over by technology because of Madden Mobile.

Due to the bad weather, I skipped canning this week and was forced to spend a lot of time with my friends that were left over. The majority over them probably spent more than 24 hours playing it over the weekend playing this game. On Friday, there were four and later 8 people that hung out in my room for more than 10 hours each and played the game nonstop. On Saturday and Sunday, every time I saw my one of my friends they were sitting playing the game, not paying attention to anything else.

This blog is an expression of frustration because my whole weekend has been corrupted by technology. Over the past three days, I’m sure that I watched my friends play the game for more than 15 hours each at least. My main social surrounding over the past three days has been watching people glued to their screens and constantly talking about the game and me trying to escape it all. I have kicked people out of my room just for playing the game and have ended up banning it overall from my room. I had enough of it. I needed normal social interactions.

This game is like an infection that is spreading around trying to suck people in. In the course of time of them playing the game, they lost the need for social interaction, missed class, and haven’t done any school work. They try to make free time for themselves only to keep playing the game and get to that next level so they can beat others.

Moral of the story: Do not get Madden Mobile.

If this virus ends up spreading to your friends, set some ground rules or prepare to lose social contact with them. And don’t play it.
