Video games get a bad rap. Most of us have played video games at some point in our youth...many still do. We are not all fat anti-social freaks. If someone spends 3 hours a night watching mind-numbing reality tv, are they any better or healthier than someone who spends the same amount of time playing games? Mentally, I'd argue they're a bit unhealthier. So if someone likes spending their free time (within reason) leveling up in a game rather than watching crappy tv, then who cares?
