Question by Guy S: Please Help HORRIBLE VIDEO GAME ADDICTION?
I have a friend who has a severe video game addiction. I was playing this zombie game with him the other day and he freaked out when i made a mistake killing both of our virtual characters. He yelled and screamed at me stating that it was “Practice for real life” This is not the only incident
He screams at his own mother when she gets in the way of the television he is playing on. i don’t know how she manages…
His grades have also been in decline ever since Spore came out.
I am worried for my friend. the intervention didn’t work. He just started screaming that we didn’t understand him and then asked me for a ride home so that he could play FEAR or something.

I am truly concerned. Do you have a solution for such a problem????
He’s been talking about this thing EMPIRE TOTAL WAR. Evidently its like a strategy game or something. He screams at me that “This is war. We need to hold the line” then he smacks me on my face.

Your friend needs some serious help. Liking games, ok, but this is ridiculous.
