#11 No. It's not just like reading a book. Even fiction. You get a lot of transference out of reading such as increased vocabulary and increased writing ability.

Sarilla, I disagree. Playing a video game is great for strengthening eye-hand coordination, dexterity, and limbering tendons/joints that are either pre-arthritic or arthritic. In addition to the physical attributes, playing games also increases stimulation to our brains in strategies, spacial awareness and multi-tasking exercises. While reading a book broadens our intellect to a degree (depending on the material) it's not utilizing nearly as many cerebral and physiological functions as an active gaming session. Even moreso if it's an exercise game found in a lot of Wii selections.
