Because Drugs cost too much nowadays.

Plus the ability to "socialize" with people hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Basically everything I do is for Entertainment.

Computer, games, school(which leads to a job, which leads to money, which leads to more entertainment), activities not to be named, guitar, listen to music, read a book, play sports, go outside, sometimes do stupid stuff that I may regret when I am older and my judgement changes...

Its all about the fun. You only live once for sure, so you might aswell live life to the fullest.

Parents only use the excuse "they support violence" to get their lazy ass kids of the damn couch.

Of course no one listens.

I don't play video games by myself. I see no point in it. Wow I just killed one billion grunts with a single grenade.. cool.. moving on.. But! If I kill one billion grunts with a single grenade in co-op with a friend we'll be yelling at the top of our lungs and laughing our guts out. Some great times come out of video games, as long as someone is there to enjoy it with you. When I don't have a friend over I do productive things like help my team out and create things. I enjoy video games very much when I am with a friend which is why I NeveR buy one player games. I guess I haven't really answered the Why question yet..

Why-Because not only does it let you play with people across the world but you can have some of the best laughs from it and great times with friends.

i used to play for money. i used to have a sponsor but, that was a long time ago. then i turned to it more for the enjoyment and satisfaction of owning people in the face on sbsp conversion maps. that is honestly y i became a modder.

Why do you sit and devote countless hours to video games?

Continuing on that question, I mean yes video games are fun, but what about it?

The Immersion? The Tactics? The ability to die without dieing? To escape?

...What?

I play them because it allows me to become the character that everyone wants to be. it allows me to accomplish things in a non-existing world, and allows our imaginations to roam free with endless possibilities. It puts me in a little dimension where i may escape from reality, and enter into fantasy and do immoral things. basically, it relieves stress, and gives me motivation.

Haha, I always find myself more stressed out after playing them. Just playing Halo 2 on-line is enough to make anyone go insane.

Plus, it's not like there's much else to do nowadays (I play sports when they're in season and work out 6 days a week, along with school of course so I enjoy the little off time I have).

Oh yeah? Well sometimes I gotta get a snack, sometimes I gotta press more than one button at once, and sometimes I gotta itch in that place you don't wanna itch while playing video games with your friends!

I play for stress relief. Gets my mind off of whatever personal problems I have.
