"hink the main flaw to this argument is the assumption that any time spent doing something other than playing games all day is automatically "productive" or somehow superior.
I also resent the assumption that this guy's divorce and his weight problem are the direct result of his obsession with gaming. They may be related, obviously, but the suggestion of 100% causality is just way too simplistic. Is there no chance that his marriage was fundamentally flawed and he finds it way too easy not to exercise/ eat healthy whether videogames existed or not? You can eat apples and bananas while you play games just as easily as you can scarf down pringles and Mountain Dew.
There is more here that bothers me but I could go on forever. It's infuriating because crap like this just fuels the general public's disdain and lack of appreciation for the good things that can potentially come from videogames and interactive entertainment in general.
What about the chick who just lost 120 lbs. with WiiFit? Videogames look like an easy scapegoat for a guy with many deeper prob"

"in the same boat as Brett here. The last JRPG I played was about 20 hrs of Lost Odyssey. Not bad, but SLOW. I am excited to try FF13 in spite of all"
