What if video games were only a figment of your imagination, and video games were only theories. What will I do?

if there were some other form of entertainment that was nearly as good, i wouldnt much care.


Would video games just never have existed and we never would have known? 

or would they just vanish one day? 

explain. I am rather curious :P

I would invent video games and spend the money on hookers.

If everyone on the planet believes a burrito is a whale, will it turn out to be? Quantum physics ftw.

I would be making my own games. Just as I did as a kid when there were no video games.

I remember those D&D guys from the late 70's. I was stuck in the middle... not smart enough and not jock enough. I just be and watched.

I played alone. Still do. Single player. I'm still learning to get along with others.

Not quite a figment of your imagination is somtething you only can see. And a thought is only something you think for a second, and not even care. In reality you are correct, but it"s boring lets just see a world with out existance.

Gee, let me think of what life was like when I was 7...oh, yes, we spent most of our time playing COD outside, played Tony Hawk with real skateboards, Super Mario World was a jungle-gym set at the park and socialization was done face-to-face.  Thank God that long American nightmare is over.

It's not that hard to imagine a world without video games, just go back to the 1930s, people managed to have fun. But what did they do? They created video games, so I think eventually, in a world without video games, they will be created.
