What do you think of the fact that nearly all threads in this forum are about video games? Should there be more discussion of other pasttimes here?

I enjoy competing in a non-team sport. I would enjoy playing video games as well, but I make a concious effort to suppress that desire, as it does nothing for me in the long run. At least the sports have healthy benefits. Training for my sport, by myself, is better than just about anything. I'm 36, and have already been through multiple video game phases. At this point, I'd rather do just about ANY other personal hobby.

I suppose the fact that most of the posts on this thread are about video games shows that it's an easy topic for Aspies to get obssessed by. But then again, there are loads of video game forums around, such as IGN for instance. The fact that most threads are about games on this forum reflects the Aspie community.

The only video game I really play is Guitar Hero, but nobody cares about sports it seems so why talk about them here? I visit baseball forums now that its in the baseball season and football when that gets going...
