School is important - practically everything you do in your life from this point on will be determined by how you do in school.

If he'd confiscated the games until after you graduated, I could understand that. But throwing away something you'd bought yourself seems to be a little over the top.

Unfortunately, if you're a minor, there's not a lot you can do about it.

The thing is, this isn't forever. Finish school, and either get a job or go to college and move out. It will happen eventually, and then you get to decide how much time you spend playing games - but not until then. And also bear in mind that if you play games to the extent that it affects your ability to work, you may end up with no job and no income - by comparison, your stepfather's actions are smallfry.

That's something to think about.
