    Well very funny story and ironic also. My son was telling me to stop playing so much video games haha.

    Confused?

    Here's the scoop

    So i bought my son a game for his xbox 360 console. A ridiculous at first game called GTA IV (Grand theft auto 4)

    I was like "why in the world would you play something like this"

    Then he's like "why don't you try it"

    So i was I like okay fine, lets see what this Game can do.

    And as I drove around what appears like new york city, driving over people, getting chased by police, doing whatever the heck I wanted to do and it happened.... i got addicted:cool:.

    I even started doing the missions of the game and my son got mad for not letting him play when he came from school. Because I was playing.

    Anyways a fun story where a parent can get stuck in a child's game.

    Anyone have a similar experience?

    I don't have any kids yet either but I can definitely relate to your addictiveness to Grand Theft Auto IV. The game is actually really quite deep and the "do whatever you want" feel is certainly entertaining. It's that type of game that you can just pick up and play for a half hour, cause some mayhem and some high speed chases, and go back to your life, I love it.

    That’s not so strange. As we all know gaming industry data pointing to the fact that adults buy games much more than kids.

    I remember when my dad used to sneak on me to play Super Mario with my Nintendo Family Computer. It was around 6 times that i caught him getting out of bed at midnight and playing Mario. Really funny though..

    If you mean DoTA as in Defense of the Ancients;
    Pretty sure this game is a curse!

    It's also one of those things that you either absolutely hate, or you love it :mad:
