Are you addicted to Video Games? – The Nera Perspective

I think that this newly formed 'Video Game Addiction' comes under the same category as several other 'addictions' that have popped up over recent years, like shopping addictions, sex addictions, and drinking milk from the carton addictions.

Oh i believe that only drugs can make ppl really addicted, what video game to me is my love. However, there are actully more and more saying hold "addiction" towards video game specially after MMO came out.

I think it's safe to say that there is nothing in video games that alters our brain or body to be addicted to them.

However as an individual, some people can become more "addicted" to certain things. It really doesn't have as much to do with the activity as it does the person I think.
