Parents banned me from Dungeons and Dragons so I've had to resort to more video games. Yes, folks. I was banned. Only because my folks thought I could go crazy, or sacrifice chickens, or burn candles, or drugs, or something that might harm my body.
I WOULD say video RPGs, but not given that option, it's a tough choice between both. Tabletop is soo much more involving, you use much more of your imagination, and you give your brain a real workout. Plus, human interaction. When you look at MMORPGs, the benefits are really... anywhere, any time, as opposed to your friends who probably have a life, like you do, and that you'll meet strange and exotic people, rather than greasy Trevor or Smelly Rob you always play with. I don't know, I wouldn't be able to vote, but given the likeleness of me not playing tabletop until I've moved away from home, I'd go with the online people. It's 10 new people to meet every day, or more if you're active.
