We've all been addicted to a game once. I mean really addicted. I mean to the point in which we cannot stop playing and want more of an expanded experience.

I've been addicted to Fable, and Oblivion.

Oblivion, real badly.

A friend let me borrow it. Let's just say, our friendship REALLY got tense. It was me evading him to keep Oblivion, I was so hooked. I was also [&@%!] when he took it.

He then gave it back. I had it till yesterday. Then he took it, now I feel bad. But, hey, I still have it for the PC!

People have claimed that I am addicted to my X-box but I just don't see it.

Halo 3 and Oblivion have only been my true obsession. I love other games, but haven't played many for as long as these two.

A lot of my mates are addicted to WoW, the only reason I don't play is because I just know I would get addicted... and probably lose my life like a few of them have :P .

Well although I do get addicted to games, it's usualy one at a time until I pass that game, then from then on although I am no longer obsessed with it I still go back to it.

At the 'moment' the game(s) I am playing until mastered are FFXII and soon maybe FFV
