TV Losing to Video Games

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the game-all-night-and-party-e-ver-ee-day dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Sony studies gaming habits finds that most games are played from 5pm to 11pm. Shock! The days of the week might have been more useful..." of course the real point of all this is that the younger generation is turning away from television and turning to games.

  1. TV is shit so surf for pr0n instead by L-s-L69 · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    TV in the UK (and i assume the US) is by and large poor the internet lets you view material that meets your exact requirements rather than having to channel surf to find something that doesnt drive you crazy. Games are just what PC literate people do when they are bored of the internet. I know lots of people read but im goin to make a gross generalisation here and say most techy people dont.

  2. Well duh by Hecubas · · Score: 1, Flamebait
    Just some of the things I hate about TV:
    • 5 minutes of ads every 10 minutes.
    • Reality tripe.
    • "Fair and balanced reporting".

    I'll take anything over that rubbish.
