Gonna have to face it, you're addicted to WoW

Christina Faith Winterburn on Videos

Level Up is a new documentary that explores the possible addictive nature of World of Warcraft. The movie contains interviews with gaming experts two guys in a game store, WoW players and Shawn Rider, editor of Gamesfirst.com.

The documentary is non-bias on the subject and rather just gives the viewer all the information to make up their own mind about video game addiction.

A somewhat humorous look at the addiction of World of Warcraft, Addicted to World of Warcraft is another short documentary that interviews WoW players about the game.

I especially love the guy who admits to actual beating the crap out of a guy in real life because he camped out on his character's corpse to keep killing him. That's justice for you. Most will be happy to know most of the guys featured in this film did managed to quit WoW. Congratulations guys. Just remember to take it one day at a time.

 

And finally another documentary made four months after WoW came out that showed how the game affected gamers in the beginning.

I haven't play WoW yet, due to my crappy computer, but I'm starting to feel like I'm the only one not playing. Heck, I don't drink, smoke or do any drugs, so why not make my only bad habit be playing WoW?

On another note, I can do a wicked orc impression, wanna hear?
