Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games

Photosensitive Seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including fl ashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games.

These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects.

Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions:

• Sit farther from the television screen.

• Use a smaller television screen.

• Play in a well-lit room.

• Do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing

11

SNAKE

The objective: knockout your opponents by fencing them in with your “snake barrier” until you’re the last one riding. The only tricks you’ll need to perform are quick turns, crazy swerving, and a lot of bumping. Just make sure someone else’s snake barrier doesn’t catch you or else you’ll be squeezed out of the game.

TAG

This isn’t the schoolyard tag you’re use to playing—your use of off-road mastery is essential to win. You must fi rst collect the ball, and then try to keep it for one minute. Be careful though, the ball is automatically given to an opponent if he drives too close and tags you. The person who keeps the ball for one full minute is the winner.

HOCKEY

Skid around the ice in a wild hockey competition. ATV’s aren’t as agile as skates, but that’s what makes this game so much more challenging and fun.
