Seriously don't you think that video games are like a drug and are addictive??

Lord Lipton

my payback, is not in smart-ass replies on here. but in kicking your ass on the field. which does happen quite frequently.

I think gaming can become very addictive. A few years ago I was playing all the time till the wee hours of the morning. It was completely ruining my relationship so eventually I compromised my time with gaming. I would play with my team Thursday nights and maybe an hour here or there otherwise. Nowadays, I'm busier and I don't even play Thursday nights... I started playing on the MOB-Cassino server this past summer/fall during my lunch breaks from work. That's pretty much the only time I play anymore. I still find time to play NHL'06 ofcourse. biggrin.gif

Side note, I'm 33 yrs old so I grew up with pong, space invaders, pacman, Atari, Intellivision, etc. I spent alot of my youth in a hockey rink or arcade, so it's really just a part of who I am. I've built a few arcade for myself and my friends along the way using MAME as my host app with a bunch of roms. I'll have to see if I can find some pics, if I still have any, and post them up.

pez sounds alot like my story but i get urges to play at least once a week for a 3 or 4 hour stretch.its funny because my wife almost seems a little jeleous of "THE GAME" i wonder how other guys seem to get away with it with their wives.

p.s. i grew up in maryland and in between playing rec sports (lax,soccer,baseball etc..) we used to have to ride like 2 miles on bikes to the nearest bowling alley to play space invaders and missle command.
