Answer:

Claim is as follow: Video games can fill our entertainment needs more than reality can.

Step-by-step explanation:

I say this because he makes it evident about this claim when he says "This summer I could have paid 10 bucks to watch "Superman Returns" for three hours. Or I could have paid 15 bucks to be Superman whenever I wanted...Superman returns is static, always saddles with the same ending. But WoW, like the real world, changes with every choice I make." He is saying that he could have payed 10 dollars for 3 hours of entertainment or 15 dollars for a month of entertainment. In the video games the possibilities are endless but in reality you can only get so far when things get repetitive and boring. There are rules in real life, not in the virtual world. Again, video games fill out entertainment needs more than reality can. There are endless possibilities.
