A "Healthy Play" and an "Unhealthy Play"... I never thought of that one. Playing healthily or not seem to have a thin line within the context. There's a certain period where you just are playing too much that you neglect other responsibilities around you. You can't blame the gamers since for some, they indirectly feel like they're valued within the video game. I think this thought is needed in business. You need to value your employees for them to value spending time with you. Video games give a sense of value unlike other things in life (not including your dog that loves the hell out of you.) To hook people, video games give a sense of love to the player. If you apply it to the office, you may develop one of the best company around.
