Math is absolutely killing me in college. I'm in my fourth semester, and here are my math grades up to now:
(1st and 2nd semester were Remedial classes)
1st Semester: Basic Mathematics: F
2nd Semester: Basic Mathematics: C+
Summer Part 1: Algebra: F
Summer Part 2: Algebra: C
3rd Semester: Intermediate Algebra: F
My first semester isn't looking good right now. failed first quiz, and First test i got a 39.
I pass all my other classes just fine. I play alot of video games too. But I feel like going cold turkey on the video games won't help one bit.
Math has plagued me all my life, but never has it done so much damage until now. What can I do?

You should never be failing in college. At worst you withdrawal because of emergencies and unfortunate events.
If you fail a midterm or struggle with concepts then go to your professor's office hours. Tell him you don't know shit and are struggling. The early the better, but they understand and are there to help.
>I play alot of video games
Well shit cut that and focus on school. What's more important to you, school or video games? It seems like your study habits need improving more than your math skills.

you should pick up some middle school books. I don't know any of them but perhaps go to amazon and see if there's a filter for math books of high school and lower.
The difficulty of math isn't the problem here, it's the teaching of it. I believe your teachers have failed and now only reading books in your free time can help you.
