According to a recent post on the famous PlayerzBlog website, a group of scientists lead by Joshua Smith psychology professor at Syracuse University, agreed on the fact that online games are time consuming.



This idea is strengthen by one of the Judge Judy cases presented in the reality show, about a young woman complaining about the fact that her lover does nothing else all day long but playing online games.
This is not the real problem, the real one being the consequences at where this lead to: the guy lost his job and the number of unpaid bills grew and grew, until she took him to the court.

The most hilarious thing that happened in the courtroom during the show was when the guy was asked what the name of the game he has been playing for such a long time is.

The answer was: World of Warcraft, moment when the Judge Judy replied asking the bailiff: “You’ve ever heard of that?”
Above is a screenshot taken exactly when she said that.

The guy looked kinda absorbed by something and was founding his words with big difficulty.
Maybe he has a shy personality, but from playing a game to losing your job…..
Some might say that he is one of those obsessed by online gaming, and at this point I have to agree with one fragment from the post about scientists’ opinion about online gaming, and that is:
“The way I see it arcade games have a greater appeal casual gamers, due to the low amount of time involved in playing the game from start to end. Things turn hardcore more often in the role playing computer world.”
Maybe this is the best advice for the guy that had lost $700 in favor of the girlfriend, to stop playing time-consuming games and start with arcades or something that can be stopped once in a while.

Play the movie to see with your own eyes:
