So, the headlines say somebody else has died due to video game addiction. Yes, it's Korea again. What the hell? Look, I'm not saying video games are heroin. I totally get that the victims had other # going on in their lives. But, half of you reading this know a World of Warcraft addict and experts say video game addiction is a thing. So here's the big question: Are some games intentionally designed to keep you compulsively playing, even when you're not enjoying it? Oh, hell yes. And their methods are downright creepy.

I think the only people who are able to be conditioned by games are those with an IQ being closest to a rat itself.
to summarize, ..... only people with weak minds, slow lives, who have a hard time discerning reality from fantasy, are the types who play games to the point of sickness or death.
