i do have a lot of online games played on, but to be a certified addict on such needs a lot of deliberation not to mention criterias for .... never the less the feeling is sort of mutual on both cases....please say you comments since there really is growing community who are into these activities & needs to be addressed as to how this affects an individual & to the the community at large - in the real world

Hopefully one day online game producers will come up with games thats similar to Wii type games, so we may be able to compensate physical inactivity. Also as well a type of online game that simulates many real life careers.

Thats somehing you really have to work onto. Earning money in myLot is not much, try coming up with other means as well. Its the deterioration of physical activities thats of great consequence to many of us whos infront of a PC in more hours thats most, usually caused by patronization of online games, thus doing light exercises on the chair might ease up a bit. Somehow we just all have to, seek ways to redeem us, its not that we're doing something wrong but just more interaction with people & surroundings in the real world.

yep freestyle, u may add later rakion, lots of kids really get hooked - we used to have game & watch during our days, & during that time it was in the status as of todays PC games, u can say a precursor of psp btw it takes lots of skills especially hand & eye coordination playing freestyle & to declared a winner he must really be somethin worth findin out how in the real world would it apply that would entice him too to show the same passion...u need to reearch more mom ^^ thanks for the response Angat Pinoy !!
