Bingo you touched me on that I guess it probably not a addiction its just a major desire to beat the game cause when I beat the game I usually leave it forever, then move onto the next one.

I enjoy video games, and they help pass the time but I am very very picky about the games I will play, and even fewer of those I will continue to play. Role playing however is one of the few types of games I will try to make time for. And this is basically to keep my mind off drugs and liquor.

Why do we play games the way we do?

What drives us to play games the way we do? What motivates us to play a game in a particular way? And what drives us to finish the games that we play? Ref. Source 4

More and more as I get older I am leaning towards shooting games / action RPG's (Such as Oblivion or Fallout 3). Also games that I can sit down and play for a half hour or hour and walk away from it satisfied I have done something. Beating the game or finding every secret is not so important though I do put a lot of time into that end. More so for me now it is more important to be abe to pick it up and put it down whenever I get the feeling for it.

It is a lot more enjoyable to play a game that you have a lot of choices in. It's not so mutch fun to feel like you are locked in for x amount of hours.

That is horrible. There have been many atrocities committed over video games, but seriously, I think it's the parents fault. They should allow their kids to play, sure, but everything in moderation.

Really? It's the parent's fault? Really?

Come on man. I mean, it would be presumptuous of me to assume any details about their home life, but if you're harboring a little sociopath, I'm not sure many parents know how to look for that, or to keep in in "check", as I really don't believe something like that can be "cured"...

Anyway, if you don't get angry at a game you're losing, you aren't playing the right game, in my opinion. My dad's a gamer, and he gets it. It's also a great game, if it can manage to get under your skin and terribly annoy you.

finally, that other stuff, I have a friend like that, but that's more him, then the video games. When he gets a new game? That's all he talks about. When he's making a character on D&D? That's all he talks about. When he converted to Christianity? That was all he talked about. Is there such a thing as taking video games too seriously? Sure. But I think we need to look less at the "video games", and more at the "too seriously".
