Is video game addiction real?

[MrDawn]

What are your thoughts towards video game addiction? Is it real or just a phase?

Ive known people to sit at their computer and play games from the time they woke up to the time they go to bed. It's real but its better than going to the bar every night or running the streets and doing drugs.

People can be addicted to literally anything.

I think people can get seriously addicted to gaming. But it's the same with anything else. They can develop an alcohol addiction too, for example. I think the problem is with the person in question, not with the games.
