I play some video game almost every day.  It's my way to relax
Oh okay I see, I know alot of people who do that. What platform do you use? 
Mainly I play on PC, but I just got a PS4 and have been using it a lot
Nice I have one too, I love it. Its the eighth generation home video game console they (sony) have developed
I didn't get one when they initially came out, but now that there is a good game catalog it seems worth it
Yes that usually takes a little bit of time to happen. The PSVR is pretty cool too. The video game industry employs thousands of people around the world, that would be a cool job wouldnt it?
I've had some friends in the industry, and they don't enjoy it.  There are a lot of lay-offs and the pressure leading up to releases is immense.
Video game industry
The video game industry is the economic sector involved in the development, marketing, and monetization of video games. It encompasses dozens of job disciplines and its component parts employ thousands of people worldwide.
Overview.
The computer and video-game industry has grown from focused markets to mainstream. They took in about US$9.5 billion in the US in 2007, 11.7 billion in 2008, and 25.1 billion 2010 (ESA annual report).
Modern personal computers owe many advances and innovations to the game
expressed by Joshua Bloch: I think C++ was pushed well beyond its complexity threshold and yet there are a lot of people programming it. But what you do is you force people to subset it. So almost every shop that I know of that uses C++ says, “Yes, we’re using C++ but we’re not doing multiple-implementation inheritance and we’re not using operator overloading.” There are just a bunch of features that you’re not going to use because the complexity of the resulting code is too high
