Games I do find interesting for what they say about us, about what we wish for, about the programming. But let it stop there: don't listen to this rubbish about them actually being good for you, helping with hand-eye co-ordination or whatever. They're games. They prepare you for nothing.

You're a kid with more experience.

We've got to look at it as a great win, but there's things we need to improve upon.
