It depends on the game, on the person and on the age of the person. I find gaming really interesting and enjoyable. It helps me to get rid of all the paperwork. It may be a waste of time, if someone plays video game every day per 3+ hours. If you just play for a couple of hours, it's not a waste of time. But, I believe that everyone has more interesting things to do than playing video games. For example, everyone can hang out with his friends.
