What us geeks and nerds did before anyone else, back when they weren't cool, or 3d, or anything. Now, it's an international phenomenon helping us get fat, lazy, and girlfriends over the internet, with jocks as well as any playing stuff from halo to oblivion, wow, grand turismo, zelda, or anything else we all like.

Get the video gamesmug. In the 80s and 90s, video games were about fun and entertainment, but they have now become a nerd version of politics.

Heres a joke:
Q: What do politicians and fanboys have in common?
A: They both can win, but still be retarded.

Get the video gamesmug. A form of electronic interactive entertainment, one that has a considerable amount of history, and one that has gained an incredible amount of world-wide recognition over the years.
However, despite their technilogical evolution, world-wide recognition, and staggering age-spanning consumer rates, video games are still subjected to a variety of stereotypes.
These stereotypes are maintained by those who still harness the mindset that "all" video games are stupid, childish, time-wasting, mentally unbeneficial, or anyone who plays video games is somehow incapable of having a life.
On the contrary, video games in many ways can be more mentally beneficial than any other form of entertainment.
Specific video games can provide god-like creative abilities, have educational values, reduce stress levels, improve hand-eye coordination, stimulate intellectual properties, even make exercise enjoyable thanks to evolved control schemes "Wii Fit".
Delving into the immersive qualities of video games, video games can have very unique relationships with story-telling due to their interactivity.
These include altering the course of the story based on choices, playing as different characters, having multiple endings e.t.c
I could go on forever.
Video games do not only offer entertainment, but unmatched immersive storytelling experiences.

Carlton: Video games are stupid.
Jake: No, that’s just a stereotype, and by today’s standards you couldn't be more false.

Get the video gamesmug. A way to escape, like (see weed). The problems of life slip away, but once reality is back, they hit you in the face like a brick.

Get the Video gamesmug. A computerized game that is played on a screen. If it weren't for these things, most young guys in America would spend a lot more time masturbating.
I needed an escape from my real-life problems, so I turned on my wii and played video games for awhile.

Get the Video gamesmug. What is fun to do, but is misunderstood for causing real-world violence (see Jack Thompson). A real video gamer judges video games, not video game systems. Each video game systems has good games and bad games. There is no system that has all good games.
