Because shooting people in real life has consequences I don't want to deal with.
Because dragons don't actually exist, and even if they did, I'd be too pansy to go near one, much less fight it.
Because I can't double jump in real life.
I play video games for some of the same reasons people read books.
About five years ago I dislocated both my thumbs in a freak cliff diving mishap. Part of my therapy, to build grip strength and regain a full range of thumb movement, was playing video games.You'd think 4 hours of Katamari a day would be fun, you'd be very wrong, it was hell.
why do you play games? Is it to beat others or is it time passing? Or is it something else? For me it mp is a few things. I feel good sometimes if i win a game or something but other times i play just for a laugh as im boreddelasandrodepends on age, and console when i got the snes it was mainly because everyone else had it and to play it meant going over to my friends house's and they would always beat me at the games because they had more time to play. so whilst i played for fun it was mainly to beat others. then as most of our parents got more paranoid about us kids being out so late we mainly went to each others houses and the 64 was more to kill bordem, whilst at XYZ house. but from the PS2 onwards it was mainly just zone out as the games were not really multiplayer focused, and by this time staying in doors was happening alot less and you were also on the phone talking to xyz. now this gen (of which i have had all the consoles) but soon ditched the Wii, my PS3/360 i use it to drown out long days/weeks at work and to kill of spare time and also relax me before exams etc
