Jim Rossignol turns his attention to the everyday world of video games, asking what it is actually like to play them and how gaming shapes the lives of those who do. Rather than staying in one place, he travels to three different cities, each with its own gaming scene, habits and local culture. Along the way he looks at how games have become a normal part of modern life rather than a pastime for a small niche. The result is part reportage and part personal reflection, offering a view of a hobby that is often dismissed but is more widespread and meaningful than many people assume.
