Exactly. I'm more than certain that's what my love of videogames, and crave for more out of every videogame I play stems from. It seems that the more physical freedom and control a game gives me, the more I enjoy it. Platformers, Mario specifically, has a specific place in my brain that creates a "completion" almost. I feel whole when I play a game where I can do lots and lots of physical things.

One of the things I would LOVE to do in real life is Free Running. I think it's the absolute and ultimate form of human perfection and art. I can't imagine wanting anything more out of life than to train up for a particular jump, or some new trick. Traveling around just to find a great place to plant would be an awesome way to look at life. I don't know, it's almost zen for me. It bothers me to the fullest that I CAN'T do it even if I wanted to. There are people who are perfectly normal that, if they tried hard enough, could at least plant and run as fast as those parkour pros. I will NEVER be able to accomplish even a miniscule fraction of what they can do. That almost makes me depressed.

So a videogame is what I must settle for. Make it for me.

Star Wars: Rebellion causes some serious addiction to me. Perhaps not anymore as it used to, but still spending hours of building massive fleets and all that jazz really consumes a lot of time. Nowadays I play it just once a year.. it's still fun, even though I'm starting to get bored.

As for other gaming addictions from the past, I sure as hell don't remember all of them right now, but major ones have been FF6-FF9, Deus Ex, GTAIII&VC&SA, Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, Command & Conquer, Red Alert, Tiberian Sun, JK/MotS, even JO... I'm forgetting many, but at least those popped up instantly.

Right now, Hitman Blood Money. This is bad because it is the most crash-happy game I've ever played, and therefore after hours and hours of play, I've only gotten past the first level.

Now all you need is the full game instead of the demo and we can waste many nights on battle.net.
I had a blog. It sucked.
