i go back through the years and my life is littered with games. Really from 2002 onwards, which is when i got my Xbox. Then i hated the xbox games and when i got a pc i just started downloading games to play and i haven't really stopped. Some of them are real good and real addictive, some of them are **** and i just delete them.

I think it IS an addiction and it does impinge on the quality of life. If i wasn't on the computer i'd be outside walking the dog, or going out, or making an effort with something.

Having said that it's very likely it's just replacing TV.

So, TV and computer, if i had neither I would be doing something. Probably.
