Are You A Video Game Addict?


Yo i wake up sometimes not knowing how much sleep i got. I play online every day by the minute. When I'm out of town and cannot travel with my xbox i go crazy!!! I had a woman tell me "Shad, you woke up at 9am its 8pm and you have not left this room" i couldn't believe it. Its to the point where i talk on my headset to my gaming buddies while im watching a real game and im not even playing. Ladies complain but i would tell my girl "baby at least you know im home and not out roaming the streets". Its something women will never understand. Just like we don't understand why they need every purse (aren't they all the same?) I argue over it. Friendships can end over a heated game challenge. I play until my eyes burn and i cant take it no more. So does this make me a video game addict?

If not an addict, something close to it. Until your eyes burn? Really Bow? That's a bit much. Anything one does in excess is never good.

Some women play video games and i am one of them and yes sometimes i play until my eyes burn sometimes too lol so no i don't think you are a video game addict i just think you like to be relax and not have a care in the world and i think video games gives use that freedom to be who we want to be so No you are not!!!

Wow bro...sad to say but it seems like it and I suffer from it as well...When something takes up your time like that its basically your life, what your focus is. Seems like the #1 priority is gaming...but should it be?

Briane Goodrum said...

Yes it does lol

Will said...

Yeah. But you can only be you. You need a dime that's a gamer too.

Unknown said...

Yes. And you need to change- you know you do. But you will- hopefull before damage.

Sheena Maui said...

Yeah, you are a video game addict in a sense, but it's not like you're going to those huge gaming tournaments and stuff. You work hard and if playing video games is what helps you unwind, then so be it.

Hell, if the girl can't get you to stop, she can just join you. Teach her how to play MW2 or NBA 2K10...get Guitar Hero and ya'll can bond.

Yeah! Lol But I mean games do be fun when it's a real good video game & you tryin to beat it or somethin so I feel you 110%. Its nothin wrong wit bein a game addict long as you GETTIN WORK DONE doe.

Andrea said...

Not only what your saying it's true but it goes far more into it. We play every game out there, we know how to keep it real, we are smart mofos, and we figure stuff out like no one else. We are gamers and right now I believe we are in control, literally.

Time to murk some bitches!.

Yep. You sure are a video game addict. I'm a female and also a gamer. Sometimes you get so into the game you don't even know how long you've played for or what time it is. But check out this video.

CaGo said...

I'm da same way bruh....my girl hate dat shit too. But its a addiction that's not easily curable when a new madden comes out every year. Lol.

IT IS WHAT IT IS AND IT AIN'T WHAT IT AINT~ said...

actually not at all, as a woman I do think that video games is enssential to a mans lively hood. Women try & control so much but spend just as much time complaining, like you said "your not out roaming the streets."
I have brothers so I even find myself playing the PS3 on a regular basis! One day you will meet someone that is as understanding about the game as you, its no different then a football fanatic as a boyfriend who spens all of his time with the "guys" during football season.....(as a woman I invested in a flat screen and host my own football parties for him and his friends). Heck some people go on those video game tours for a living making a lot of money!
I tell my girls all the time buy your man a game system and the top 3 games (madden, mondern warfare, & either 2k10 or boxing) you cant go wrong if you build his comfort zone in ur home but make sure you buy an extra controller so you can get involved with him or his friends can also play!!!!

sanodox said...

Yes maybe you are addicted but also may be a matter of time and entourage too. You will change probably with time without even notice as soon as you find different passions and people.Don't give up on things you like for others only if you feel you should take it easy...If you got patience with her she will have also... and add some music on the blog :)) PS: 1234

Hey im gonna call it an addiction. but everyone has addictions. Women and shopping or shoes. Guys with Jordans and video game and cars. Some people with cigarettes, drugs,drinking. Everyone has some addiction/obsession. But your right I would rather my man be at home playing a video games then in a strip club or partying with his friends every night. If a chic loves you that much she would get into it and play with you..

DRE said...

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

well my xbox got overheated so i think i should stay low foorr a biitt lol and study for a while till i buy a new one :l .. not all women are the same but i do agree they over do it with the shopping :l it's a girl(s) nature i guess even if they bought 50 pairs of shoes that look the same lol.. im a girl and i can't be bothered with shit like that i'd go insane :l or even worse haha it's not programmed with my system :P

tezza said...

LOL i can tell by how much tweets you put on twitter about playing on ur x-box.

Unknown said...

22, gaming from 9am to 8pm is normal. especially since you can go online and play anyone nowadays. it aint like you poppin in nintendo cartridges bleeding on mario all day. you get this full, semi formal experience playing people online, time can fly, especially if you aint got shit to do. its probably just a guy thing, but i aint judging.

on a better note, i saved 400 dollars by switching to geico. u mad!

Yep, Shad you are addicted but like you said at least you are not roaming the streets. You can look at it both ways though, she was trying to look out for you. You do need a break and some fresh air. Everyone has their own way of relaxing though. Like for instance, I love listening to music when I am home, sometimes I am on the internet a lot after getting off work and on the weekends. My best friend used to tell me that the computer became my best friend after a while. I mean I do go out here and there but as long as I have my movies and music on my days off, I'm good.
