You will need to pass "Welcome to the Video Game Detail page!" to the Content method. In your code above, you passed the string to a variable named Constant. Additionally, you will need to place the semicolon after the return statement.

using System.Web.Mvc;

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