The Lure of Heroinware

blankmange writes "news.com reports: When games stop being fun; where the line between reality and fantasy blurs. Another story about games and the adults who can't stop playing them. It seems that we can't be held responsible for our actions -- it must be the 'heroinware' that game companies are producing...." Mmmm, Evercrack. T. pops in: Don't worry, games aren't addictive, but here's the announcement of a 24-hour gaming TV network for those unexplained late-night cravings. (Thanks to joestump98.)

    first:
    it's about time there's a video game network! the electric playground is SOOOO lame! i especially hate the fatter blondish one!

    second:
    why are all these fags playing everquest? why not try a REAL game, like URBAN TERROR. i find myself logging in at least 2 hours a day, on BUSY days, when i really, really, swore to myself i wouldn't. i like all modes, but especially CTF with a live friend teammate (on my inhouse LAN) against an unfair amount of bots (2:1 bots:us). snipe on the way there, switch to the machine gun and spray and pray back to the base.
