Well, duh. If you spend all damn day in front of your (insert console(s) here) then of course you are going to have problems. Same goes for people who watch way too much TV, too many movies, or (unfortunately) have a desk job that they are at ALL day. Take a break, get some sun, and exercise. Also, some gamers tend to get the "quick fix" diet to keep playing, like eating hot pockets, pop tarts, or whatever while at the same time drinking soft drinks all day. Take a little time to make to decent food and drink water for crying out loud.

 

This ad is probably targeted at "hardcore" or "extreme" gamers who do nothing else but play games. I have a job that is moderately physical and I exercise and try to make good eating choices. I doubt I will have to worry about this like some other gamers.
