Firstly, I believe everyone thinks that watching movies is a very good entertainment. It does not only spend our time, but also can really entertain us. However, I think playing video games can also entertain us, or even more entertainingly. It is because you can play the games, not only watch it, this is such a motionless activity.

Secondly, there are many kinds of games. Some games are very educational. For example, they will teach you the spelling, pronunciation of a word. As you playing the games, you are memorizing the words at the same time, as if you are practicing. It is more easily to learn something. However, watching movies can only let you know something, you cannot play it, so that it is more hardly to memorize a thing.

In conclusion, if you choose and play video games appropriately, you can learn something by the games. You may even play the video games with your friends and family. I believe it will improve the relationship. So, playing video games is not as bad as you think.
