Gaming, like many other things folks enjoy, can be addictive - personally I have avoided getting into gaming for fearing I would like it so much that I would end up wasting hours of my life when I could be doing better things.

I've added 'Never' to the options so I can take part

With me, probably a couple of hours a day, sometimes maybe four hours and sometimes I'll go a few days without playing any games at all.

As for wasting time on playing games, when we 'could be doing something better' I suppose it depends on one's own interpretation of 'better'.

I enjoy gaming and this is a short life so enjoyment is good, in my book. Yes, pure hedonism I suppose, but what the hell, you gotta just take care of yourself sometimes

Yep, 'doing something better' is from a personal perspective - hence the reason I used the word personally - rather than it being judgemental........and some folks would no doubt think that some of the things I do instead are wasteful

I spend way too much time playing games, but i love it!

On a week night it can be up to 4 or 5 hours and weekends, well god knows, more that 5 hours sometimes.

Although i do have to keep the three servers going so that stops me playing quite as much.

It depends, I can go months and not play a game at all - but when a new one comes out I could play a couple of hours per day

Playing Fallout 3 at the moment, and it's good fun!
