IS it just me or have the rest of you heard "stop playing those useless video games" or variations thereof a thousand damn times. I'm sick of it. Video games are not useless. They can do a lot of things for people. For one thing they can increase hand eye coordination. For another thing video games teach problem solving skills Which are some of the most important skills a person can have. What do you people think?

OMG i completely agree! My problem solving skills are second to none!!
Especially when I'm trying to get into a locked door. All I need to do is search the surrounding area for a color coordinated key.
Or when I need to get somewhere, I can easily run up beside a moving car, open the door, kick/punch the person inside, and its smooth sailing to my destination.
Any items that would ever be of any use to me are always floating a few inches above the ground, rotating slowly.
When I talk to random people I have never seen before in my life, they always tell me something useful or interesting. If I'm lucky, they occasionally give me clues about a goal that I have in mind.
I can walk into people's houses and rummage through their barrels/crates looking for useful things and they don't mind.
wow, gaming has really taught me a lot and been good for my life!
