In anything there are some people who take it to the extremebe it in politics(dictatorship, tyranny or fascism) down to sex, gaming, smoking or drinking.

I for one is more concerned about internet addiction. I believe that too many of us can't live a day without having to browse the internet. I'm probably one too.

As for gaming in my opinion board gaming is the one to be watched out for in terms of its addictive influence.
I've played boardgames 4-5 hours straight and feel I could go on and on if not because I had to go out.
People whose hobby is board gaming usually collect to hundreds of games even though they rarely play all of them but a small group of their collection.

In my personal experience I find board gaming to be FAR more addictive than electronic gaming.
