Decision regarding Video Games?

I'm 16 and I stopped playing Xbox about 7 months ago because I thought it was taking over my life. I played 4+ hours everyday and that's all I thought about. I become bored some days but still haven't played. My mom who worried about me and my health sometimes asks me why I don't play anymore or with my older brother. I feel that if I play even once, i'll want to play again and again and it will take over my thoughts. I live in a rural area so there isn't much to do. I miss playing of course and I used to play Cod, minecraft, gta, and battlefield. I watch my brother play but always deny when he asks me to play. What should I do? I don't know what I should do when i'm bored or think about Xbox. The first thought to my head is to not play.
