Please let Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic end soon. You know I am weak. I am unable to stop playing. Even though I usually hate RPG's, you have drawn me in with your force powers. You are ruining my marriage and you make me late for work in the mornings.

Love,
Mike Schrag

Originally I didn't really consciously choose a path, but I started tending towards light and now I get all upset when I accidentally do something that gets me darkside points ... I'm really curious if the game is much different if you choose dark, but it's a huge time commitment to find out.

Sadly, I think Kirsten has been forced (uh. no pun intended ok. small pun intended) to come to terms with my videogame addictions ... I don't even think I need the "hearing voices" defense

Best conversation in KOTOR:

person 1: "I did it all for the wookies."
person 2: "The wookies?"
person 1: "The wookies."

Just to add to the addicition information, this article came out today:

Video Games Are Addictive, Scientists Say

My first response was "Well Duh, I could have told you that, they don't call it Evercrack for nothing."

I thought this tidbit was interesting:

"a survey of hundreds of heavy online games players showed half of them reported family conflict and romantic failure as a result of their hobby."

Sound familiar to anyone? hmm?
