Theres a new theory out that video games is actually a diagnosed medical condition or there are people out there who say it is. Whats your thoughts on this..... Man everything is an addiction anymore.

i Agree, as I said above, I thinks it just one of lifes phases. I think some doctor is just trying to grab attention. Makes me question Al Gore now...lol.

you spent $400+ on a video game system? man you must be loaded. I would have waited a year or 2 so it has time to go down $200 in price, but I don't think its an addiction because as kids well all played games, but as you grow older your priorities switch to family, career, and overall living, so to me its just a phase...
