How would life be without video games?

I'd say life would be better, and people wouldn't be saying noob in real life which is annoying, also fail and epic fail.

There would probably be less fat people and people would actually go outside and learn stuff then sit inside and play games.

Game are fun but they ruin lives.

How would your life be without videos games I would not be the person I am today...games made fight the man!Jackal527

I think I would be ok. I would find other ways to entertain myself.

I wouldnt have failed as many classes as I have.

i would probably be about 15 pounds lighter and not be as pale as i am

but its all good:P

It's possible to do both dude.

You know those few seconds per day you sometimes experience while switching game disks? Like that, only all the time :P

You guys wouldn't be anti-social, overweight, and so much to say. Don't take it personnal though. At least there should be a time limit when playing games.

Same.I learned this back in late 07 lmao. I lost 51 ibs, totally ripped, and doing much better in school. Consider that guys. TIME LIMIT!!

[QUOTE="Shafftehr"] That possibility is irrelevant to the many people who don't do both, making his point quite valid. Video games certainly don't help America's obesity problem.Shafftehr

Well I guess you can say that. But back when I was really fat, I used to play and eat a lot while playing Gears, Halo 3, Resistance MP (while spectacting) Now I bet you there are a lot of people that do it too :P

Mine would basically be the same. Except I would have more money.

Oh I didnt play games all day, i also did other things but video games played its role. It was just a combination of bad time management as well as procrastinating when it came to doing school work.

You act like video games are the most substantial contributor to America's obesity problem.

[QUOTE="Shafftehr"] Heh, no kidding. Video game fans, concerning obesity, remind me of alcoholics who somehow believe it isn't hurting their liver. Video games don't have to make you fat, but for a *lot* of people, that's exactly what they do. Go figure, the guy who compared me to Jack Thompson for daring to suggest such blasphemy against the sacred hobby is a perfect example of the utter disillusionment and defensive insecurity of many video game fans. Take your hobby for what it is - like most hobbies, far from perfect.Shafftehr

True. Just for the people that can't control it. Good that your working out btw. :)

Better question is how would life be without Television? EazyD91

excluding games right? If it were that, then nothing. Haven't watched my 47' 1080p HDTV in months :P

I would've found some other mundane hobby to pour bundles of cash in and then probably go on the net and argue over mundane topics regarding my hobby.

I'd probably be doing alot better in school (not that I'm doing bad now) and I'd probably be more focused on other activities like basketball, which is second to video games now.

My personal life would be filled with more drinking/going out (with my friends its one and the same)which could be a good or a bad thing.

Sorry for keep saying this, but do you guys have a time limit when playing games?

Life would be more boring, that's for sure.

Depends on the type of game. If I'm playing an online mutliplayer game I lose track of time and it could be anywhere between 2-5 hours. A single player game like an RPG, I spend about 2 hours for each session.

I would probably focus a lot more on music making and writing as a hobby. Of course, I'm more than happy to take time out of those activities to do some gaming.

Yep, life would be bad.

Seriously, i think that videogames make me a better person, i mean, since i was a little kid, i was so antisocial, i might still be it, but thanks to VG i'm more open now, i remember back in the days of KOF 96, after a great match, i was like, good fight dude, and that got me a couple of friends there, withouth VG i'll probably would be way way more closed, also, i wouldn't have learned english on my own, i mean, how the hell would a kid who doesn't know english solved a RE puzzle, actually, life would be worst.

Im pretty sure life would ultimately be better for everyone without them in many ways. They are here though and Im not complaining.
