A member asked:
Can video games still give you a seizure if you don't have that type of epilepsy?

No: If you are not photo-sensitive / -triggered, then they should not.

Not likely: The cause of seizures from computer video games, when not a photoconvulsive epilepsy, was the CRT monitors and the refresh lights. With flat screen monitors this is not a problem.
