I will NOT quit video games as long as they continue to be fun diversions!! !

Video games are better than a lot of other media formats types like modern music and TV!

That's like the equivalent of asking older people that they're too old to watch "Looney Tunes" or "Tom and Jerry".

....Was that a bad analogy? Sorry about that. :p

No, that's quite correct.

I agree with the guy in the YT video.

A person is never too old to play video games. :)

Unless of course, they lack the mental or physical capacity to do so because of ill health or whatever.

Great video! This is a topic I've kind of struggled with and thought about alot. I used to play a good bit in my teens and twenties but once I hit 33 I kind of stopped. I think some of it was faith reasons and some of it was this topic. I pretty much only play now with a close friend when I get together which is infrequent. He has a wife and kids now so it's harder to get together. I kind of miss playing sometimes. I think video games helped me alot growing up with coordination, problem solving and just something in common. I should try to play some again.
