He has one point correct, kids will play for 3-4 hours (hell I play for way longer usually) it's usually cause people don't want the TV and there isn't anything else to do so why not. Btw I'm 16. Also any kids that want these game typically know they are fantasy like seriously. How does one take several different alien races fighting the few remnants of civilization seriously. I started playing halo around 12 and was playing star wars battle front since I was 8. Like you said, parenting is a factor.
