Watch Hilarious 'Proof' of Video Game Addiction

But why WOULDN'T I accept the notion of 'video games addiction'? People can become addicted to a wide variety of activities.

It may have been 'obvious' that playing to escape would cause problems but even if it's obvious it's good to show that it's true. And that playing socially is a risk factor for overuse is a legitimately important result.
