Yeah, GREAT!

Thank your mom from not allowing you to experience the entertainment medium as of today that flourishes with innovation, creativity and constant change and improvement.

Thank your mom from discriminating against an industry that holds some of the most talented artists and most hardworking teams co-operating to provide quality entertainment.

Your music is boring ed, and you seem like the typical suburban brat that knows nothing of creativity and innovation.

You seem to be really angry about this. Why is it a big deal? Video games have many negative effects as well...

Its such an ignorant statement though. Videogames stem mostly from japan, and its a huge and respected part of their culture. And artists who started out as illustrators and painters, also work in the video game industry. 

For his mom, and now himself, to encourage video games as a waste and not important to the entertainment industry, would be like me saying music is a waste of time, if i would chose to focus on becoming a lawyer or whatever.

I don't think that's what he was implying. He mainly meant his mom never let him play video games so that it didn't distract him from practicing the guitar. He did later say that he wanted to play FIFA.
