Look video games are addicting because anyone can get addicted to anything. Some people are addicting to masturbating some addicted to anything. Now I have a older brother who is addicted to video games. He has lost about 50 pounds because all he does is play Socom 247 and doesnt care about anyone. He doesnt even care about his children, he will play video games from 10am to about 4pm take a break then go back at it from 5pm tell like 11pm, he doesnt work and can barley hold a job. He burnt out his first ps3 and bought another one within a week and continued back into playing. Look him up on Socom he is prolly top 50 Easy-187 or Easy_187 or maybe Easye_187. I dont even know his psn because I blocked his ass because his gaming has drawn us apart and become a problem of me having to bail him out of problems. But people who say this is a goverment thing FALSE gaming is good and fun but go out because once your old its over people.
