Sorry for being a bit off-topic, but this has to be written:

Video Game (noun):
1. Any of various games played using a microcomputer with a keyboard and often joysticks to manipulate changes or respond to the action or questions on the screen. (www.dictionary.com)
2. A video game is an electronic game that involves human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. (www.wikipedia.org )
3. A game in which you press buttons to control and move images on a screen (Oxford online dictionary)
4. An electronic game in which players control images on a television or computer screen (Merriam-Webster )
5. A game in which the player controls moving pictures on a television screen by pressing buttons or moving a short handle Cambridge Online Dictionary

Let's use that for Microsoft Windows:

1) Yes, we use a keyboard to manipulate changes or respond to the action or questions on the screen.
2) Yes, we generate visual feedback with a user interface.
3) Yes, we press buttons to control and move images on a screen.
4) and 5) yes, we control images on a television or computer screen.

So Windows is a game, too!
