If the video game is DDR, or any Wii game that makes you move a lot (like Wii Sports) then yes. As for other games, they may burn slightly more calories because you're moving your hands, but probably not enough to make a difference in your health.
Playing video games because you are interacting with your TV
in TV you just watch it and nothing else but in video games you are using a joy stick etc. and watching the graphics on the TV
Playing sports, watching sports, playing video games, and listening to music.
A circle that you put in dvd players when playing video games/watching movies
it does it by the games and t.v. gets in your brain
no more than you can by watching TV. eventually it will get old and stop working but video games wont be the cause.
i dont think watching cartoons and playing video games have a maximum age limit. And, i think it would be stupid to stop watching cartoons and playing video games just because you are older.it is due to the fact that you are older that you can enjoy it in ways that you cant when you are young^^
Watching TV means that you are watching the channels and programmes that are sent to your TV by media companies. Basically, your only choice is to change channels or switch off. Playing video games is often interactive, and is a different side to media, internet and social interaction, etc.
Makes your brain to tell you to do the same thing.
Adults stop watching cartoons because video games has more pleasures like blood and nudity but cartoons dont (awnsered in a kids opinion)
Basically to a child a game is a new adventure just waiting to begin and if they like watching tv then playing games is like watching tv and controlling it and some games are good fun especially the Nintendo wii
painting, golf, playing super heroes, video games, and watching spongebob on T.V. Oh and playing with Barbies too. :)
