VideoGamesController

Hi, I would like some help with this challenge. I do not understand what the task is about.

VideoGamesController.cs 
using System.Web.Mvc;

namespace Treehouse.Controllers
{
    public class VideoGamesController : Controller
    {
        public ActionResult Detail()
        {
            return new ActionResult()
            {
                Content =  "Welcome to the Video Game Detail page!";
            };

        }
    }
}

You're off to a good start, you've changed the return type correctly.

But you don't need to construct an object, just call the "Content" method, which has been inherited from Controller (and pass the string as the argument).
