I'm pretty sure if I wanted to I could not play for quite a long time... considering I've went probably a month without them before due to a dry spell in releases, and vacations and stuff like that where I don't play games for a week... so yeah. I don't think I'm physically addicted at all.
And seriously, if you care about the results of a poll how about you keep the answers unbiased? Some of those are just too long, specific and/or idiotic.

How much do they expect you to know when you first jump in? How much experience did you have when you started?
I voted for B, yes iM addicted, and would go into withdrawal without them. (nothing too drastic though.) but Im still able to do other things like hang out with friends and play sports.

Most people who are left had some programming exp before first year.But a couple had never programmed before and are really good. I had done some python coding but not a lot.Really if you have an aptidude for programming you can go in with no knowledge(they dont assume any).First year you learn most programming concepts through C#.Second year is almost all c++ with some engine programming(scripting using c# with the neoaxis engine) also projects using c++ and opengl.As well as datastructures,human computer interfaces and Program Design.Third year beginning September 14th yays! is mostly developing a project in the Gamebryo engine(Oblivion and Fallout 3) as well as 6 months placement.
I'd go with F. I'm not addicted to video games. I still love to play video games, and I wouldn't give it up unless I had a decisively good reason. But I can still put down the controller if I need to.
" Not really. Although I play video games a lot, I never become addicted to one particular game, mainly because I abandon it once it's beaten. "
You've beaten 800 games! if anyone here is addicted, its you. "
* turns on pissed music* First, I voted F, like many of you. Second, I am never addicted to one particular game; again, I beat games and then never touch them again. Why do I have so many beaten games? They're all part of the Royal Game Library, duh!

* turns on confused music* Gestures? What the hell do you mean by that? You mean colon P? I used that a lot on GameSpot, so the habit has obviously been carried over.

Gestures meaning things such as *turns on confused music*
Back quite a few years ago my parents and me went to Boston to see if I actually was addicted to videogames. They interviewed me and told me I was not addicted to videogames or the internet.
So I for one can definitively say I am officially not addicted to videogames by clinical definition.
