Top 10 Signs of Videogame Addiction

March 21, 2009 in Blog comments 15

Electronic Theatre comments on the state of public opinion of videogames addiction, and refers to a humourous article suggesting the Top 10 Signs to be looking out for...

With the recent health warnings and studies surrounding videogaming as a hobby, you’d be forgiven for thinking that society considers playing videogames an unfortunate deviance which many partake in, but certainly shouldn’t be glorified. While being attached to pastimes such as gambling, drinking and eating your own weight in quarter-pounders and curly fries may not be too far a short on paper, in reality videogames present maybe a handful more positive qualities for children and adults alike.

    None of them really apply to me either... Though, I have to admit #4 was true back when I was addicted to RuneScape a couple years ago lol.

    Lol, #1 is true for a few Warhawkers I know. Lol

    And I have to admit that I've had times I heard a noise or saw something in real life and responded with the thought of it being a game-related thing and what I would do in response like duck, run, jump out of the way! Then laugh at myself when I think of how crazy I am Lol, and realize I might need to take a break from whatever game I have been playing so much!

    Next time kevcothirtythree, link us to the actually site and not yours.

    Anyway. the only ones that applie to me is 10 and 1.

    10 because Mother 3 music is so awesome, and 1 because those freakin' Pikmin won't stop stealing things from my bed room.

      I agree. If you want traffic, write your own content.

        It's actually GameGrep policy that you link to the original source. Whoever approved this did the wrong thing by doing so.

    #10 is a symptom? Someone needs to know that they're selling soundtracks, not like people need to go through some underground websites to download them...much...

    My life needs a little bit of Silent Hill tracks every so often.

    I saw a forest which ended abruptly and subconsciously thought that it had finished loading yet.
