The author's definitely right, we're far too screen-oriented. Video games are alright, I do play them once in a while, but I infinitely prefer going out drinking or reading a good book. I don't even like TV. If I watch half an hour a day it's a lot. I think the problem with computers, games and TV is that they're instantly rewarding from a visual perspective. You're immersed right away and it takes no effort to enjoy from that point on. We're lazy, obsessive, and convenience-ridden, which just about sums up modern-day life. Welcome to the 21st century, folks....
