Films or games?

Hey, i'm new to gamespot. I'm a film student who also does some gaming and I figured i would pose a question. Which medium (films or games) do you think is better for escapism? Meaning, which do you think is used more often and effectively to help people escape their worries?

I was just thinking about this today and I honestly couldn't decide. I love games because they are so immersive and satisfying, but movies are so easy to sit and watch and be entertained. Let me know what you think!

Definitely games for me if it's do with escapism. So much freedom to do whatever you want in them and most of the time you can choose what happens.

I'd have to say games, especially RPG as you actually become that person and summerse yourself in their culture for untold hours, and your journey will be slightly different each time you start the game. However, it depends on whether you find escapism passively or actively.

games! coz u dont think of any thing else while playing and they last longer55-69

Agreed...but of the two choices, I'd have to say games.

Films are more immersive for me. Games are like a punch bag. My controller takes a bbeating :Pclembo1990

Any film with Jessica Biel makes my crotch a punching bag, it takes a beating.
