Video games can be fun. The graphics are usually amazing. They have lifelike
characters and backgrounds that look like real places. Even so, I get bored playing
them. There's no real purpose to them--they're just a mindless activity. I would rather
be outside playing real games, not just sitting in one place in front of a screen. Why
play a computer game pretending to run and jump when you can actually run and
jump?

I have always loved playing video games. I used to play only action games that let me
move a character through, over, and around obstacles. Now I prefer games that help
me think. When I was struggling with problem-solving, my teacher suggested some fun
puzzle games. No matter the type of game, though, I love the eye-catching graphics
with different textures and colors. Sometimes, the game world seems more real and
exciting than the outside world,
