weird fascination with people who rank high on bmi. if your whole shtick is to argue that gaming helps us get over superficial shit, maybe don't focus on peoples' bodies so much. just a suggestion

buddy really likes halo and star wars. that comes across clear. myopic viewpoint of video games. doesn't actually seem to understand the medium, re: his astonishment that games have soundtracks (actually called this an aspect of convergence between film and v.games). some interesting tidbits here and there about second life and potential of training sims. otherwise, this is a 2.5-ish book. start in middle.

could use more style or something? kinda bland "hey look at me now i'm over here talking about e-sports" writing throughout. opines more than he writes.

spends most of the first chapter telling the reader about how he played video games when he was younger. you like video games? I fucking hope so, considering you decided to write a book about them. now tell me something I don't know.
