PC player not be labelled addicts
( 2003-11-05 16:20) (Agencies)

Computer game fanatics should not be labelled addicts, although many players say they are hooked on a hobby that is affecting their social lives, scientists said.

Some evidence exists that games stimulate the same areas in the brain as alcohol and other drugs, psychologists, sociologists and others were told at a conference.

But unlike the addictive substances, there was no medicine to deal with compulsive gaming behaviour, they heard.

"Is (the popular online game) Everquest addictive? Well, it's no more addictive than school or work. The time invested in those also make them addictive," said Florence Chee, a research student at Simon Fraser University in Canada.

Scientific interest in the multi-billion dollar computer games industry has mushroomed in recent years, after teenagers in several countries killed themselves and others after playing violent games. Various governments have put pressure on the industry to add a health warning to games packages.
