Easily a nine. Not to mention the addiction to the NFOHump forums, which could reach a plain ten

@Theescapist
I can probably count them on one hand, these amazing games. And a handful of good games hardly makes me addicted. Make no mistake, I'd love to be addicted again, but I don't see this happening.

gave myself a 7, because there isnt a day i dont check to see what new games are out to download, and i flip on tf2 2 or 3 times a day, and yeah, i still have split/second on my hdd, WHAT OF IT... i still play 5 or so rounds of that a day...
but thankfully there are no shitty mmos sucking up my life at the moment. still waiting for lotr:o to show its little gimpy hobbit face before i see if i get caught in that fucking mmo trap again...

I gave myself a 3. The last ~2 years my gaming 'addiction' has constantly dropped. I still enjoy games but I don't play nowhere near the amount I used to.

Quote: | The term addiction is also sometimes applied to compulsions that are not substance-related, such as problem gambling and computer addiction. In these kinds of common usages, the term addiction is used to describe a recurring compulsion by an individual to engage in some specific activity, despite harmful consequences, as deemed by the user himself to his individual health, mental state, or social life. | (wiki)
its only an addiction if it causes problems.
Can and do you stop/playing) when you are tired ? Yes , good, No, bad.
You rather see friends etc than play games ? Yes, good, No, bad.
etc etc.

Voted 1.
I have completely lost interest in games theese days. Its all just the same stuff in a different setting or with a slight twist.
It's very rare that something truely unique comes along that makes me think "now thats fucking awesome".

this^
the games that I was hyped about in the last 5 years for me..
when I got them, was like find out out you won a new Ferrari, only to get a new die cast model of one mailed to you.
I can count on 2 hands the games I was excited about in the last 5 years..and can count on one hand, with fingers left over, the ones that didn't horribly let me down out of those.

I gave myself a 5.
If you asked me this question when I was 15 it would have been a goddamn 20. Now, I hardly have any time left to enjoy gaming, I'm lucky if I'm able to get in a couple hours in every other day.
