Can you completely stop playing video games ?

As for me , NO ... I can't give up gaming / I won't give up gaming and shouldn't give up gaming ( relaxes me so much from everyday stress in ones life ) .

I love Gaming with a passion . But yes , i can limit my gaming as i age more .

Share your own opinions :)

I can forget gaming so long as I have something else to do.

Yes because it's not a huge part of my life. Other things like tv though, no.

I could never give up gaming completely, I have been gaming for way too long to give it up.

I loved angry birds for a while... now I just hate it. Gives me a headache. I always know what to do and it's just a case of flicking the bloody things at the same spot over and over hoping to get lucky.

No, but I can go a few days without gaming. But since its one of my favorite hobbies, there's no way I'm giving it up...

I've 3 starred everything on Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio, and Angry Birds Seasons. I have all the golden eggs. I have all the golden pineapples and golden bananas. I don't owe words to anyone.

If I had to, yes. There are more important/better things in life than videogames.

Ironic, since I spend most of my free time wasting my youth solely to play them :P.

I could.

It's a way for me to communicate with friends and other people, if that was suddenly taken out of the equation, I'd lose interest.

I've been through two weeks without gaming, but I couldn't fully sacrifice it as a hobby. Watching TV, on the other hand...

I went on a two week vacation. I missed my video games D:

On the other hand, I had my trusty sketchbook with me, so I guess it was a fair substitute.

Pfft no way. I've been gaming since I was 2 (1989) and I play games almost every day. I can't think of much I'd sacrifice it for.

I wouldn't have a problem with that. There are times, when I have a ton of work and can't play video games for weeks.

Completely, no. I play Tiny Wings during commercials when I watch TV. I can stop for periods at a time during school semesters.

It depends on what the sacrifice would be in exchange for.

Can you completely stop playing video games ?

indzman

I can probably saw off my legs for the right trade-in, but can I saw my legs off for no reason at all besides being capable of sawing off my own legs?

Your question is kinda' odd.
