Addiction to computer games...

[Cuda1447]

So the question, have you ever been addicted (seriously) to a computer game, to the point that it probably negatively affected your life?

Yeah, I failed gr.11 english because I was playing too much Planetside.

No, but i've come close to being addicted.

 

[Bateluer]

Nope, never been addicted to the point where adversely affected anything.

I've always been able to stop well before the point of no return.

I used to play the original UT for at least 14 hrs a day, it got to the point where it hurt to move my wrists. I then graduated college and got a job and play CS:S about 4 hrs a day nearly every day

I used to play Counter-Strike around 5-6 years ago religously. I haven't really gotten hooked on any computer game since.

I've played games so much that it's probably negatively affected my life at some point, but I don't think I've been addicted to any of them.

approx 100 in game days wasted of my life.

Well said. I think the same goes for me. I've never been addicted to a game.

[MetalMat]

For a while it was MUDS, Counterstrike, Starcraft, Battlefield. Especially in Late High school, early college.

Now I am living real life though. Bands, women, movies, soccer, fishing, etc..... I am trying to pretty much quit video games for the most part in favor of working out/ guitar/ and getting with women. This summer has shown me the light in that aspect.


However, when elder scrolls Oblivion comes out.......

 

[Mo0o]

Never got in the way of my studies although i played as much as I could

 

[heinz256]

I was addicted to MOH:AA a couple years ago but it didnt really affect my life negatively. My bro however, pretty much gamed Evercrack 24/7 and barely went out during that time...

 

[EyeMWing]

No. But I've seen many people who have.
