someone once told me that gamers are addicted to games, computers and stuff like that. although this type of addiction is harmless (in most cases) he said that people addicted to games are capable of being addicted to "_other stuff_". i don't believe so. games have nothing to do with addiction. in my opinion games are like really good movies, you just want to follow up and find out what happens next, or like building something, you just want to keep going and see how your work and effort turned out to be and if it payed of (finishing a game gives me great satisfaction). games can't be that harmful can they?
