you cannot be addicted to video games. i did my degree in programming and we explored this avenue. You cannot be addicted to games, addiction can be defined in may different ways but it comes down the the bodys reaction when you take the 'something' away. Nothing happens to the body of you simply take someone away from games cold turkey. They get angry, sure, this is emotion, they really LIKE to play video games, they dont NEED it like substances the body absorbs and then develops an addiction for it. You simply cant take a long time drug user off their drug, their body will shut down without it. Games addiction doesnt exist, its just a want to play and play and play. With countries like korea, people are making a living off it so the need to play play play is far more abused overall in those countries.
