Im addicted to muonline :( and it really isnt funny .. i got bad grades in school coz of it.. i can play more then 14 hours a day :'(
Ragnarok Online. I might quit when I've played all the classes. At this rate that'll be 3 months with servers dieing after xx weeks.
my 360 and guitar....I will quit, when my parents kick me out of the house LOL!
I was addicted to WoW some time ago, my addiction last like 2 years or so. It was crazy addition.
But some time ago I eventually quit WoW, I dunno why tho, just got a bit boring or I don't know, but now I'm happy.
BTW, now I have a new addiction - BMX :)
i wanna be addicted to a game but i cant find a game that i wouldnt mined spending hours apon hours on ....... but yeah 3/12 years ago muonline i loved that game
Hmm Gotta Say Unreal Tournament 3 ^^
/Fate
Used to be crazily addicted to L2 and then GW. Now the game i can really get easily addicted to once i start playing them are Guitar Hero, Halo and Ninja Gaiden.
I was addicted to habbo for a good 2 years, i live in a small town so theres not much to do. after I quit that, I picked up a 360 when they were released. and been addicted to CoD4 ever since :P
Let me fix that. I played habbo Too much. as Rish said in his other post you cant be addicted to a game.
Never been addicted to games, more addicted to the internet in general, I usually play games for around 5 hours and get bored, shame really.
I usually get addicted to a game for a while, then I give up and then do something else. '_'
...So I'm not addicted to any games at the moment. xP
Nope, I can't play ANY game for more than an hour - but generally I play a game for 20-30 minutes then get bored of it.

Some would say an Addiction would to do that of which your addicted to in "Excess" I have had arguments with a friend of mine on this topic regularly when ever it comes up. and we always come up to the answer, its an Addiction of Excess ammount of doing it. But cannot harm you in anyway because its a Videogame. Think of it this way.Quote:

An "Addiction" can only be used to describe a biological substance. Why? Because of the chemicals in it, it actually has a physical effect on the body, especially in the form of withdrawal symptoms when you try to stop it. A game cannot do this, it is all in your brain, you are making yourself think you need it, there is no external substance causing it.Quote:

A game you play a hell of a lot, and you find yourself keep playing it. why do you feel the need to TRY and be a smartass.. who cares exactly what the word addiction means, why say it here, are you that desperate to show off that you know something?
EDIT:
ghey ragezone doesnt have auto-merge, come on, im too lazy to do it myself -__-

@Rishwin. As I Said. its a State of Mind when it comes to video games.

Thats what it was like for me with habbo a couple years back. easy to quit though ^^.Quote:

Then a few months (and a few games, yes) after, I go to a friend or something, and I see: 'Hey, that game is still pretty cool' and I do that again.
That's about my loop =x
