Why do people love playing video games?

willnguye⫹ asked:

I’m a gamer myself, i have an xbox360 and the old xbox, and i do play games of my computer from time to time, but i want to know what you guys think is the reason why we play videogames, what is it about videogames that makes it so attractive to gamers? Is it the storyline, or the violence, or is it the ability to be someone else? Please, any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys.

  1. it’s just a good time
    there doesn’t have to be a reason

  2. I play games mainly because of boredom.
    Or if there’s a game I’ve played all my life, as in Zelda. I’m def. going to play the new versions of those games that come out.

  3. depends on wut game
    kill games are a fun skill game with guns

  4. We realize how boring and/or crappy our lives are and love the chance to be someone else…

    people are not happy period. . . ask a question are you really happy, 100% and they will all say no or lie! playing video games, doing drugs, anything else you can get really into is all because for a moment you were happy, for a moment you were having fun. it does’t last long, but you keep looking for it, that is why you buy the new games, even if you don’t play them all, just to have them, that is why you smoke pot, when you would rather be a casual smoker than a hard core stoner. you’re addicted to video games, my bf is addicted to video games, but his goes from one thing to the next, now he is on astronomy and physics.. and me , I JUST WANT TO GET STONED DAMNIT!

    ~~edit~ for those of you who just answer for the pts, and say that thier doesn’t have to be a reason, well that is not a Valid Answer, why? because if playing video games were not for any reason at all why doesnt’t everyone? my grandma ain’t playing Madden. The answer would be that is is some sort of interest there, xboxers and pc gamers have that in common.. so, some of you guys don’t even know how to read a question and post a valid answer, you have recieved thumbs down .

  6. They play because they want to and they like to play against the computer.
