I used to absolutely love FPS games. I think I've burnt myself out on them for the most part. Specifically competitive type shooters like Call of Duty. I just can't get into them anymore.
Pretty sure La is well versed in the WoW stuff. I cancelled my sub again, it expires tomorrow. I'm tempted to have one last night on it tonight but I can't risk being sucked back in, now that BC is out. I went through a hardcore phase though, I ran two guilds, cleared every raid every week across three toons, and was a dab hand in the arena too. I also did auction house PVP and was maxed out on gold on a few toons too. In fact it got so bad that when I went to certain sites at work, I used to take my laptop to work, teamviewer in to my home PC by tethering to my phone, and reset all my auctions whilst being paid on the job. I really took it too far.
I've never been addicted to any other games though, I mean I've put in some serious hours, but that was mainly due to the awesome company I had rather than the game. Anyone who was around during our MW2-BO2 days will know what I'm talking about.
This is the type of reply I was hoping to hear about, personal experiences. That sounds pretty serious with that WoW situation, sheesh! Haha. I'm glad you're not that deep anymore. MMOs can certainly be addictive.
I don't think I've ever been personally addicted to video games, other things in life, but not games.
Like Didds and some others have mentioned, back in the Duty hay days, I used to get down quite a bit and was hooked. I'd even say it was like that with the first Destiny. I'd think about playing it all the time and squeeze some time in any chance I had. Playing with the clan all the time made it more than just gaming, it was a social thing as well. It's been a while since I've felt that strongly about any game. I still game plenty, but I haven't had anything suck me in like that in a long time.
Right. I agree. But, I'm curious if anyone's here has ever found themselves addicted to video games. Addiction comes in 101 flavors, but I'm just curious about personal experiences with being addicted to gaming specifically.
Have any of you ever found yourself feeling addicted to gaming or known someone who has been? Where do you personally draw the line? Thoughts on this topic?

This was one of the first games I got back when I received my FG gaming PC back in the day. I still haven't finished it. Got pretty far, lost my save, and just haven't' pushed through to get back on it.
Bomberman was one of my favorite games back on SNES!!! We had one of those controller extension things where you could hook up 4 controllers. Me, my brother, cousin, and neighbor friend used to play tons of it!
