I won't suddenly drop dead because i can't play games. Most likely i would get annoyed, bored, and then go do something else, maybe go catch a cats and torture it for fun.

Seeing as I rarely play games, yes I could.

I would definatly go nuts, unless I found something that could hold my attention enough that I wouldn't think about not having video games any more.

I surely could live without PC games. I tried it several times for shorter of longer period of time and it was painful in beginning, but very early it was normal. There really very much other things to do, for example reading books.

I can live without them. Difficult at the beginning, turns into something normal after some time. Actually I'm in "not playing games" time at the moment. I have simply not enough time for them. But soon........

reading books gets boring after awhile for me though,

id probably sit down and think about games all day.

or maybe play sports

I could live without comp games, i don't really play much anymore, mainly becouse of my depression, i don't really find it very fun anymore.

But i could not live without the computer, the internet and the music.

I could live without games. I find very few games that can hold my attention longer than a day or so, and out of those, I find very very few that I would play through in entirety more than once. The exception is multiplayer. As for those, the only ones I really got into were Quake 2 Death Match and the first Diablo (this being the longest played game ever for me). Without games I think I could have a more productive life, but games alone are not really my time-consumer.

How about making a new pole: "Knowing What You Know Now, Could You Live Without Internet Access?"

Now that one is scary.
