Game Addiction

[LiNuX]

Game Addiction is a very bad disease lol. Well these days, kids get addicted to all sorts of games. They play it continuously and not do the stuff they have to do. Have you ever been addicted to any games in the past or are you addicted now?

Like a year ago i was addicted to counter-strike lol. I used to play like 8 to 12 hrs a day when i had no school. It was bad lol, i wasnt doing a lotta other stuff.

About a year and a half ago i was addiced to a game called R.O.S.E. (Rush On Seven Episodes) and i used to play that game from 8 am to 1 Am the next morning lol, That was during the summer of 2005 lol. It was a pretty good game. I used to leave it on at night sometimes with my shop open and sell stuff and wake up a million zulies richer lol. Well anyway, i miss this game, the only reason i quit is cuz they got greedy and started to ask for money monthly to play the game. so that sux.

you have any addiction stories? lol, its good to let it out

I was once addicted to Madden 05 and NFL 2K6 at the same time...I used to play one for about 6 hours, then when I got sick of it, I played the other one for a longer time...this went on before school had even started...then when it did, I played from when I got home at 3 to when I went to bed at 11...sickening to think about it now that I have no PS2 and no games...

I'm addicted to playing chess online. It must play daily even if I have lots of work to do.

[paecmaker]

I havent been addicted on a single game. You can say that I am a little addicted of the pc in common.

Or any new games.

well, way back in 04-05, I was mad addicted to pokemon blue... all the stuff that was in it, my friend would just beat the game in 2 days, but me, it would take a while cause I was too focused on leveling up the monsters I caught, learning new skills & all that...
all of a sudden, he took his game (thats right, I borrowed it off him, I had a gameboy color of my own) and then threw it on the ground & stepped on it. he's like we hardly hang out anymore cause of this game. he didn't care if he broke it. haha. this experience helped me break the addiction of that pokemon blue game. . .

I'd say my girlfriend's sister's boyfriend is addicted. He will wake up at 8AM, (he has no job) play straight till 4PM, workout for an hour, then from 5PM-3AM he plays again. This has been going on for ~8-10 months now. She even gave him the choice "Me or xbox", and he said he couldn't choose. THAT's addicted.


I used to be addicted to RockBand though, where I'd see the colours in the bottom of my eyesight. I'd play 10+ hours on a school day, and maybe ~16 on weekends for 7 months until I got my girlfriend and was too busy for it :) (Not like that hahaha)
