This article discussing whats makes people addicted to video games. I found it an intersting note that people said it was not just the game that makes it addictive, but it is the social factor that draws so many people into these games for endless hours. People that do not have a social life outside of video games resort to this interenet world where they can find friendship and love from others. This really makes sense to me because it is much easier to make friends in a video game world than in the real world. People seem alot nicer in a game and dont judge you for how you look or the way you act because they cannot see you in person.
