A Couple of Thoughts
1) From The Washington Post,
Gentile used a modified version of the criteria for pathological gambling to formula questions to poll 1,178 children and teens. Those "pathological" gamers experienced spending more and more time gaming to achieve the same level of excitement, irritability when play time is reduced, ditching schoolwork to game...
Sounds like someone I know. Lucky there are people who "remind" him that he needs to do his stupid homework.
2) Think of the most random movie you've watched. Done? Crank High Voltage is probably more random than that. I still don't know whether I like the move or hate it; it's that random, and proud of it.
