Frequent gamers have more grey matter

That is a little bit interesting I guess, but I never have much faith in experiments based on statistics like that. Unless there is actual neuroscience research backing those figures, they don't mean much. Also, why wouldn't they study addicts rather than gamers i.e. heroin addicts vs non-heroin addicts. That seems like it would offer a better control for the differences in grey matter

Telling if the matter is present or if it grows would be difficult to ascertain I suppose
 
So does does that mean we're addicts ?

:holyshit:
No.

You can correlate the number of people with a television in their home and cancer patients. You'll probably find that almost all cancer patients will own a television. There is a correlation between owning a television and developing cancer.

That does not mean that owning a television means you will get cancer.
 
There's a list of things that make you an addict, if you do more than three of them then you're an addict. One of the things is a large amount of time spent trying to obtain the thing that you are addicted to. So that involves things like robbery to pay for an addiction, or it may mean that you suck penises for MW3. There probably are some addicts, but playing video games isn't addictive whereas something like Nicotine or Heroin is.
