Ok I am little impartial on the subject because I was never a huge gamer, when I was younger I played a bit, but now that I am older I spend about 7 hours a week maybe watching TV I go the gym a lot of put a ton emphasis on physical fitness and have been working out 4-5 times a week for about a year now but, I would love to see a study that says that playing sitting playing any video game can raise your heart rate as much as any physical activity expect for walking
