Ridlas Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I don't go out much, so games help pass the time. They're fun and challenging to play. Good source of entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kreuger Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I agree with you. It's like most forms of entertainment; an escape from reality. But it's fun and challenging without being too stressful (for the most part) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSib Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Yeah video games are a good source of entertainment. I love First Person Shooters :D I always found it interesting when I tell some girls that I play games they giggle, but if I ask them what they do in their free time I get something like... watching TV or reading. I'd rather be getting headshots than watching Law and Order... that's all I'm sayin' haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deletedxyz Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Escapism. Apart from that, it's a complete waste of time if people just use it to fill a void in their life since it doesn't affect anything that happens in the offline world. /wants to argue that gaming should be used to help students learn better in elementary and high schools since it uses a reward system for completing objectives (see Modern Warfare 2 and xbox 360 achievements) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
what Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Nowadays its mostly to pass the time. If I don't have any free time, my Xbox doesn't get switched on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team_NOOB Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 For the obvious reasons but also cos I work from home, so for me gaming is a necessary distraction when I need to clear my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimplySchizo Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 It's simply an addiction for me. I kicked every other bad habit in my life (cigarettes, alcohol and drugs) figured this was the best one to keep. I grew up on video games as well so... Pong is where it all started.

Pablo2008jedi Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I game for entertainment. TV is so dull these days, especially UK shows. I only watch a few series, that count to probably 4-5 hours per week. I prefer games with a nice story, or a good multiplayer game to play with mates, but that's getting rarer as the all have families now (bloody kids :p ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
