REDMOND - A "Best Places" survey commissioned by Microsoft ranks Seattle as the top video gaming city in the United States.

The survey of console and P.C.-based gaming was based on the number of video game systems -- Xbox, PlayStation and GameCube -- owned per household, as well as the number of games owned or rented and the frequency of online play.

Minneapolis-St. Paul ranked second, followed by Atlanta, Detroit and Phoenix.

Well, you guys had to find something to be good at... that whole post-season choke thing's been holding you back for some years now.

Well what do you expect when it rains 11 months out of the year.

Even so, I think South Korea has us all beat.

THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT! We wouldn't want our kids associated with dying from playing a damn game for too long would we.

Geez I like to play games occasionally and even play once or twice a week for 3-4 hours at a time BUT I certainly don't want my kids sitting on his butt or laying down playing a F****** game(s) and not doing something physically active. To me playing games on the Xbox or PC is a reward only given after everything else is done.
