It is noted as being particularily addictive when it concerns Massive Multiplayer Online Games, where many addicts retreat in to an online universe to the exlusion of all else. In particularily serious cases gaming addiction has led to the break up of marriages and families, the loss of jobs and in some cases even suicide.
