There are also TWO awards available - but they didn't mention that either.
The first is a Belt Loop (the boys wear them on their official uniform belts)
To earn the belt loop the boys need to play a new video game
but they also need to learn why there are ratings on video games and why they are important
They also have to create a schedule - which includes time for school work & chores, sport events/etc., and then video gaming.

Then there is the Academic Pin - which requires more work to earn - and in general (at least for my oldest scout) were worn on the uniform hat.
Not only do they have to play WITH A FRIEND for one hour, but they also have to ....
figure how to pay for a video game they would like and their parents approve of with in their age group
They have to Compare two gaming systems - the price, the features, the games available, and why one system would be better than another for the way they play games.
They need to teach an adult to play a game and set up a family game tournament of some sort.
They need to come up with 5 tips for helping others play particular game
and the game MUST help/deal with the schoolwork - so it should incl./use Math, spelling, reading, etc.

So you see - it is so much more than JUST playing a video game ....
