Will gaming discourage people from exercising?

I don't think gaming = getting fat

 

I think eating lots of fast food = getting fat

 

It's possible to do exercise and to play, it's just necessary to be justified :)

 

Yeah, its call Wii sports!

You mean play computer games? Hell no. After couple of hours sitting behind desk and sun is shining outside I always want to stretch my joints.

I think its more about if you´ve used to move\exercise from childhood or not.

Yes it does discourage people from exercise.

 

When I was still Runescape addicted I also did basketball and some other sports for a while.. but I quit all of them because I'd rather be playing my game and not waste any time doing anything else haha xD Ohwell, atleast I'm not fat.

 

Since februari I sport again though :] But just fitness, going to do zumba tonight! wootwoot! It's fun!

I'm a lot less gaming addicted since I quit that MMORPG =P

Yeah, breaking legs and sh*t .. :P

 

I've got several certifacates for sailing and other water sports, problem is i can barely do them during the winter, so I started to play games.

Even if video games didn't exist, there would still be people who never exercise because they don't like to. Sure, gaming takes up a lot of time, but if you like to exercise you can manage to do both in a day.
