Well, if you're like me, you really like your video games. I love them, I simpyl can't get enough of them. I play them pretty much anytime I have free time. I wouldn't say that i'm addicted because any time someone calls me to help them, I put the pad down to go and help them, even if i'm in the middle of a grueling game of Call of Duty and i'm about to die. I want to know how much time you spend on your computers bashing away at those buttons.

I don't play any video games at all. Sometimes I play over at Moola.com, but those are more like gambling-type games...and you win real money that goes into your bank account [Druscilla34]
Well, when you do that, there is also a real risk :) I don't like gambling, I'm not that sort of person :P Anyway, if you enjoy it, go for it :P [Sparkz95]
I do not play video games anymore because I prefer to make money on the internet I use my nintendo ds lite to listen to music when I am walking on the streets and I do not play video games on my softmodded nintendo wii which I softmodded myself. [psphacker]
You should at least play some video games, they're great fun. I reckon a little bit of gaming everyday is healthy :) It widens your imagination :) [Sparkz95]
It varies. Some times if I am bored I will get really involved in some video games, like 2-3 hours a day. Other times I play video games to kind of wind down before bed maybe for 30 minutes. I get the most excited when I am playing with friends though, and we have some long sessions, like 5 hours on baseball or football at times. [jeg2315]
Cool, I love getting friends over and having huge long sessions of gaming, it's brilliant. The only bad thing about it, is that the room we're in always starts smelling of sweat, no matter if the windows are open, it just get's really hot in there because there are so many people in a small-ish room. [Sparkz95]
Well, once I become married my video game playing has slowed down alot. hehe. But i still manage to play my Nintendo wii and PSP a few hours a week. I used to spend between 15-20hrs a week but not combined with both the wii and PSP i spend about 2-5hrs a week. [glygaa]
Wow, that's a huge transition, I'd hate to only get to play 2-5 hours a week. Sometimes I play less then that though :( It just depends how busy I am. I never have a guaranteed amount of time to play in. [Sparkz95]
Well I play from .5 hrs - 4 hrs depending how I feel, sometimes I get bored while I'm playing [sand_card_4]
I never really do get bored. Well, I can get bored, but only if I'm playing a really primitive/repetitive game (like Football, I just can't stand those games). If I'm playing a game like Mariokart Wii with friends, I pretty much never get bored. We could play for hours on end without any one of us leaving the room once. [Sparkz95]
I have to say that I like to play video games but I try to control myself and limit the time I play them.Normally I would become a little addicted in the game that I even ignore some important things like having dinner or hanging out with friends.So for quite a certain period of time,I keep away from video games.When I want some games to relax,most probably I will play little games on the webpage or play card games with other players.Those games are less likely to become addicted in and I will not spend lot of time on it.Anyway,I like video games and they have so much fun. [sunshineyunlong]
I know what that's like. I used to ignore things all the time, I once missed about 3 Doctors appointments because of it. I didn't mind because I didn't particularly want to go, but the Doctor seemed to mind. [Sparkz95]
On an average I play atleast for 1 hour a day.. I am addicted to sports based games and simply cant be without playing in free time. [yeomanly]
Which types of "sports based games"? I just can't stand most of those. All of the Football games drive me insane! I hate the sport because it's boring to watch. Then they make a game to make video games boring too? Not cool.. [Sparkz95]
whenever i purchase a new game, i spend at least 3 hrs a day playing it. i guess that has something to do with how hyped the game. for example gta4 was so hyped and good at the same time that i spent 5 hrs a day playing it when i first got it on its lunch date :) [Warhead47]
Really? I didn't think GTA was going to be like it is. I thought it'd be better. Not that the game isn't great or anything, because it is, but I just thought it'd be better for some reason. That was probably stupid seeing as they did make it extremely realistic. The thing that annoyed me was that they took out the ability to fly planes. That seems stupid, if you're making a game more advanced, don't take good things out. Add new good things in along side the old good things. [Sparkz95]
maybe just around an hour or two i have to study or else... i'm gonna get hanged by... (u know it!) [lightning09]
So true, there just isn't enough time do do everything in, is there? :( [Sparkz95]
I don't spend as much time as I like to. There's always something to do, so I began playing online MMORPG'S while multitasking with other stuff I have to do online. That way I'm killing a flock of birds with one stone. [troublesome]
Well, sometimes life doesn't offer us the opportunity to do things we want to do. We just need to do things that we have to do. [Sparkz95]
I like to spend as much time playing video games as possible. Some days its as much as 6 hours, some days its as little as 1, it all depends on what I'm doing that day. [linkmaster111]
Cool, I'd love to have as much time as you to play video games. 6 hours a day would be absolutely brilliant! I'd love it. Sadly, that won't happen unless things suddenly change for the worse in my life. I don't really want that to happen because then I won't have any money to buy games in the first place. [Sparkz95]
a lot, i spend a lot of my time to play video games but only wen i m free. i play videogames all the time in weekends :) my fav. pc game is call of duty modern warfare, and all the grand theft auto series sply gta san andreas!!! these are a few games that m addicted to. i love playin online games as well sometimes i play on consoles too i hav a ps3 n psp. [killersss]
GTA Sanandreas was the best, wasn't it? I loved that game. I still have it on my PC today :) I play online sometimes. Have you ever heard of SA:MP? That's a multiplayer thing that was developed for the PC version of Sanandreas. It's really cool, you can even chat with other people who are playing. [Sparkz95]
