i think the idea of sport is competing to show your abilities wheter physically or mentally, and video games show skills mentally so it can be considered as a sport.

Video games should not be a sport. First sport  require physical activity, moving your hand all day and starring at a screen is not a sport.
So they call this is E-sport.

So what do you think about chess? Sitting a place and moving the hand?  Grin

Yes it should, some of those games live and work like pro sports men.
 I don't like to see other people play E sports, but I do look for short video's about how to do things in game.

I think VR games or anything that requires physical exertion and skill can be considered a sport. While most video games require some thinking skills, it can only be done by sitting down. Also take into consideration that when you say sport, people tend to think physical activities immediately so it is going to be hard to convince people to consider video games a sport.

I don't think I waste my life on the internet since the internet actually shows and teaches a lot of things.

Video games should not be a sport. First sport  require physical activity, moving your hand all day and starring at a screen is not a sport.
The Oxford Dictionary says that sport is "an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment." Video games certainly do involve physical exertion. It's usually not as much as in soccer, for example, but it is there. How can you draw the like? Is golf a sports? Is darts a sport? Archery? The most involve standing in one place and launching something away from you. You could say that they don't involved that much physical exertion. They certainly do involve it though and they are sports. I like to qualify videos games as cybersports, when they are play on a high competitive level.

Cybersport is all fiction, sports are physical exercises, loads aimed at strengthening the body and video games are just a referral to mental activity

Nothing is perfect in this life. We feel better life is possible, so perfect life is not real. Only in fairy tales, legendary movies.

2. intellectual alertness
three. Coordination of index finger moves
4. vision talents
5. Strategic questioning capabilities

could be considered a sport because there are video games that use intelligence and brains to complete the game.
