The Gaming Life, Peter Olafson,
RobotStreetGang
When addiction takes precedence over living, the lines between
reality and substance become blurred. In the case of Peter Olafson,
freelance video game critic, there were no meetings to help him
break free from his destructive video game obsession. As he
recounts in this personal narrative, ‘I would come home from work,
play all night, go to bed as the sun came up, and limp into the
newspaper late with an excuse on my tongue and my brain feeling
like a great pale wad of steaming dough.’ This seemingly hopeless
gamer describes his journey through the video and offers a poignant
narrative of an untraditional addiction.
