Abstract

The new technologies associated with computer games have more than an entertainment component; they also bring tremendous changes in human life at both the individual and societal level. Since Asia is the largest market for game consumption around the globe, this project seeks to understand the social, cultural, psychological, economic and educational implications of game playing in different Asian regions. Besides investigating the social impacts of gaming in respective countries, comparison among different countries is also of interest.
