New Scientist:
"Excessive computer gaming has the hallmarks of addiction"
To be fair, they do seem to have picked their controls right--studying gamers who have not reported social problems from their hobby with those who have let gaming interfere with work in socializing. So this is not some anti-gaming "think of the children" crackpot stuff.
That being said, it's not surprising: lots of things can be addictive without a chemical trigger. I just find it funny the silly "Civanon" ad campaign apparently has a real life counterpart.
Now if you'll excuse me, the Romans are encroaching on my territory, and I have to spend three or four hours kicking their butts across the continent.
