Uh, does it mean I'm "Addicted" if I set my alarm to wake me up to play video games at 3:00am every morning when I stay up playing every night until 12:00am? Does it mean I'm "Addicted" if instead of calling friends, and family by their real names, I call them by my favorite video game character names? Am I "Addicted" if I can't walk down the street without a controller in my hand because I need to be able to control where I go? Do I have a video game "Addiction" if when I leave work for lunch I do re-enactments of my favorite game scenes in the middle of starbucks, nude? Am I "Addicted" to video games if when I masterbate I only think of my favorite game titles?

Oh, ohhh... it does mean I'm addicted, uh, well only the last one is true anyway.

You my friend have one hell of a vivid imagination - I like it.

But no, I don't think a single one of those questions could be answered with a yes. You're not addicted to gaming, I mean, you're the next level above "whole can of crazy" - but you're not addicted to gaming. ;D

Are you addicted to Video Games? - The Nera Perspective

quote:

I think that this newly formed 'Video Game Addiction' comes under the same category as several other 'addictions' that have popped up over recent years, like shopping addictions, sex addictions, and drinking milk from the carton addictions.

Oh i believe that only drugs can make ppl really addicted, what video game to me is my love. However, there are actully more and more saying hold "addiction" towards video game specially after MMO came out.
