My girl will bitch at me for playing games, and then turn around and watch TMZ and some other mindless bullshit for a few hours a night..
Which is worse ? her watching mindless celebrity trash for a few hours, or me entertaining myself while honing my reflexes, hand-eye co-ordination and problem solving skills?
Games are very much entertainment, but I think most guys agree that it's a different level of entertainment compared to even a great movie..
Some of the best games I've played gave me months of enjoyment, while a TV show or movie only lasts a few hours, and you're only a passenger on the experience, not a participant like in a video game.
for the record, I don't watch ANY tv, very few movies, but read lots of books, and play an assload of video games...
It's an addiction, but it's not unhealthy at this point, for me anyway.
